There are 2 labels in the mint_sheet that are associated with ice hockey. In the second row and second column there is a hockey helmet on a red background. In the fifth row, fourth column there is another hockey helmet but this time the background is green. If you look around the border of the mint sheet you will see 26 names sequenced by the letters of the alphabet, A thru Z. If you then look at the 2 labels that have hockey helmets you will see that these labels bear the label "O". Going back to the mint sheet border you will see that name associated wiht the letter "O" is Daniel Chartrand. Digging deeper into Daniel Chartrand you will find that he has numberous patents regarding skates, hockey helmets and other hockey protective gear.
