Mario Lemieux led the Pittsburgh Penguins to consecutive Stanley Cup championships in 1991 and 1992. Later, under his ownership, the Penguins won additional titles in 2009, 2016, and 2017. He is the only man to have his name on the Cup as both a player and an owner. He also led Team Canada to an Olympic gold medal in 2002, a championship at the 2004 World Cup of Hockey, and a Canada Cup in 1987. He won the Lester B. Pearson Award as the most outstanding player voted by the players four times, the Hart Trophy as the NHL's most valuable player (MVP) during the regular season three times, the Art Ross Trophy as the league's points leader six times, and the Conn Smythe Trophy as playoffs MVP in 1991 and 1992. The Hockey Hall of Fame inducted Lemieux immediately after his first retirement in 1997, waiving the normal three-year waiting period.
Presented is one of the most sought-after hockey cards in existence. The offered O-Pee-Chee Lemieux rookie card is clearly a pack-fresh copy, with impeccable centering and superb color. Every element, from razor corners down to its pristine original surface gloss, is pure perfection. A flawless, Gem Mint 10 specimen that is a cornerstone in any collection of elite hockey artifacts.
