2022 National Free Signer - Bernie Parent

When I saw the list of VIP party signers for the National, I was glad to see that Bernie Parent was one of them. 

I had quite a few of his cards that I could use, thanks to the box of vintage hockey cards that my good friend, Max, gave me a few years ago. I had this 1970-71 Topps Hockey card of Parent. It has a little bit of surface damage next to his shoulder, but you can hardly notice it.

Parent (b. 1945) played in the NHL from 1965 to 1979 for the Bruins, Flyers, Maple Leafs and WHA Blazers.

He was a two-time Stanley Cup Champion (1973-74 and 1974-75) with the Flyers. He was the 1973-74 and 1974-75 Conn Smythe Award winner and was elected to the Hockey Hall of Fame in 1984
