Card companies getting lazy?
It drives me crazy when I have multiple rookie cards of a particular player, from different sets, and the card manufacturers use the same pose/photo of the player.
Does it bother anyone else? I mean, how freaking lazy can you get? Of all the photos that are taken of these guys, they can't pick different photos for each card?
I just started to notice this in the last couple years.

100% agree. For me, it's Bill Ranford.
I understand he's retired, but what about recycling images from other years? You're spot on with this post.

I have only noticed this a couple of times. The worst to me are the rookie photo's that are the same on all cards. At least get some pictures of the player skating in practice or something.

Yes, this is very annoying. If the rookie only appeared in one game, I can understand there not being many photo's of him. However, this is very annoying to me when you have a starter whose same picture is used on multiple cards.
