It’s Throwback Thursday so let’s go back through Upper Deck’s trading card history and come up with a fun giveaway. Upper Deck’s always popular set 2014 Goodwin Champions released yesterday and it features a variety of young stars and legendary players. The cards are all based off of original hand-painted art we had commissioned for the set and that allows us a lot of leeway to show athletes in a different light. Just take a look at these base cards for example:
One of my personal favorite cards in the set is of legendary goalie Grant Fuhr playing golf. And if you didn’t already know, Grant Fuhr is actually a pretty darn good golfer who has actually been featured in an Upper Deck Golf set before.
What I love about this 2014 Goodwin Champions card of Fuhr however is how the elements he is playing in do not seem to bother him at all. So let’s put up a new card of an older player for Throwback Thursday and see if our fans can come up with some great captions for the card! Please share your comical caption to this card for your opportunity to score the below 6 packs of 2014 Goodwin Champions for your chance to pull one of your own!

Grant Fuhr: Master of the 5 Elements of Earth
Well i guess it’s time to go golfing no stanley cup for me
What do you mean this isn’t a hockey stick??
Mind if I play through?
‘Snow problem, this way to the 18th hole guys!’
How the puck did I end up here?
This isn’t where I parked my car!
When I was your age, I walked through two feet of snow carrying my golf clubs…
Everything is better when it is cold!
Grant doesn’t ever get cold – because he’s so Fuhr-y!
“I love Canada in the summer”
Fuhr’s new passion “Ice Golf”
You could have at least got tim the tool man taylor his own card
“Wait, you mean I CAN’T play through looking like Santa?!?!
My first season not with Edmonton and look at what I’m doing, golfing during the postseason!
You think golf in the snow’s impressive? Try winning 3 Stanley Cups with Paul Coffey as your “defenseman” #5thForward
I’m playing goalie at the pin
I don’t golf often, but when I do, I prefer to do so on a nice clean sheet of ice.
Nobody can seem to find the 5 hole on Grant’s course
It’s just a little bit of snow….here, use my snow wedge.
“Anyone seen Tony Romo? I know he’s usually off work already this time of year since its the postseason and all. Looking to get a round of golf in with him.”
Hey ladies, wanna come to the clubhouse?
Now its time for the off season
I really should have used orange balls today.
FORE! wait I meant KICK SAVE!
In Canada our gold courses never close!
To quote caddy shack I don’t think the big stuff is coming down yet bill Murray to the bishop
Tuques and gloves? We don’t need no stinkin tuques and gloves for golf.
I’m smiling because my caddy just ate some yellow snow.
Last hole–playing for the Good Win
IT’S THE CHILLY OPEN!
I love coming back to Canada Eh!
Keep off the grass!
I was wearing my pants like this wayyyyy before Urkel.
Summer golf in Canada
“Closest to the pin gets to kiss my Hall of Fame ring.”
Was told golf was a great game after hockey. However people keep beating through the ‘five hole’?!?…
“Has anyone seen my ball, I knew I shouldn’t have used white ones”
I found this club on the 5th hole. I was just wondering of it was yours?
Are golf clothes supposed to match because I went for a red and white Canadian theme.
Happy Gilmore strikes again…..
After scoring all those goals, Wayne and Mark told me to take the rest of the day off.
“Just signed with Toronto, better bring my clubs”
After trekking threw the Canadian terrain it’s always nice to unwind with a peaceful game of golf. Bring your stick for the tiebreaker.
Anyone seen my ball, it’s a white Titleist?
Please Mr. Photographer… I asked for a goalie stick and a snow showel, not golf clubs!
“Man these pants they are making me wear are really giving me a wedgie!”
Why Yes I do make everything look this good and yes I should be in the old spice commercial. You are correct old chap.
Four! Much easier than a double pad stack!
I gotta stop playing with the white golf balls in the snow…
