Remember goalie Hardy Astrom? The Rangers brought him up from the minors during 1977-78 and he stopped Montreal's record unbeaten streak at the Forum in his NHL debut. There are no cards of him at TCDB with the Rangers, but when I looked him up on Ebay, there he was in a Rangers uniform. Is there such a card company called SCA? It smells fishy to me. The seller is in Moscow ... I wouldn't send a nickel there. Still, I like the idea of a Rangers card for Astrom ... why didn't the North American companies think of this first?

Looks homemade. Russian? Height is 183 sm, not 183 cm like it should be. Goalkeeper (like in football/soccer) instead of goaltender. No Å:s and Ö:s (Åström, Skellefteå) so I don't think it's Swedish or Finnish.

Seems fishy to me . Limited to only 10 sets certainly sounds like someone just printed them off trying to make a fast buck in the hot market

This isn't real at all. The design, the lettering, the fact that its off center, The SN isn't imprinted on the card. This is most likely someone trying to scam a few dollars. Not added on site either. ------------------------------- - Austin

Agree, looks homemade. ------------------------------- *Someday my cards may double in value and then be worth half of what I paid for them.*

I can't find any information about SCA-Cards, but I found this sale that has some info about the set (not sure if it is accurate). https://www.ebay.com/itm/2015-SCA-Martin-Gerber-Toronto-Maple-Leafs-goalie-never-issued-produced-d-10-/143215981753
