You think the card editors at Fleer might be a little red-faced over this card? As much as I agree with Gerry Cheevers as the past of this Bruins Generations card, I'm not so sure about the others.
With no disrespect meant to Tim Thomas, I'm fairly certain Manny Fernandez might have something to say about who's the Bruins' present. Most troubling, though, is Hannu Toivonen. How can someone traded to St. Louis on July 23 represent the Bruins' future?
The card, which is a pretty cool concept, came out of a 2007-08 Fleer Ultra Hockey 12-pack retail box I was talked into buying.

What about Reggie Lemelin, Byron Dafoe, Pete Peeters, Andy Moog, Bill Ranford to name a few...plus i remember a guy at the end of his illustrious career playin between the pipes in the playoffs for the Bruins.....Jacques Plante..Tim Thomas...puhleeeze!!!
The card has Tim Thomas, who really is a pleasant person to talk with, as the present.
Most of the names you mention are from the past. Though the guys you name are worthy contenders, I believe Cheevers is a pretty solid pick.
Besides, you didn't mention Bernie Parent, who we should probably not like because of a certain series against the Sabres.
One of my all-time favorite goalies, Rogie Vachon, capped his career with the Bruins.
