Goalie mask snafoo

Recommended Posts

Watching the Capitals game the other night on my NHL Center Ice package ( B) ), I noticed that goalie Brent Johnson was still wearing his mask from his stint with the Coyotes-complete with two big coyote head logos on either side, and a desert background scene. I thought this was pretty silly; how hard is it to get the guy a new mask design, or at least one that doesn't promote his old team?

It's not uncommon at all.  I remember a goalie on the kings several years ago wearing a Red Wings themed helmet and red pads for a few games.

haha. i always love it when stuff like this happens. Its kind of like a tribute to the past. Im waiting for the day that an NFL player gets traded and wears his old helmet for a game or two with his new team. Itll never happen but i think thatd be pretty interesting to see

Wearing the old team's goalie helmet is still 100% better than the blank all-white, yet-to-be-painted goalie helmet I recall Bill Ranford sporting when he was traded to the Bruins a few years back.

I remember when Andy Moog played for the Bruins. He had the coolest goalie mask in the form of a bears head with is own facemask looking out the jaws.

Later he was traded to the Dallas Stars, but he kept the bear mask and just redid the trim from brown to green. Still one of the best masks ever.

We all have our little faults. Mine's in California.

Sorry 'bout that man, there ya go I did it for you.

Anyway funny to note that he also had that mask when he was apparently with Vancouver. Making it more pathetic that this is at least his second team since Phoenix and still no change....

Might I remind everyone that it was Johan Hedberg's goalie mask that gave him his nickname, "Moose," when he made the jump from Manitoba to Pittsburgh.

And Andy Moog's mask reminds me of Beezer's during his days with the Panthers.

For all the bird de lis haters I think the bird de lis isnt supposed to be a pelican and a fleur de lis I think its just a fleur de lis with a pelicans head. Thats what it looks like to me. Also the flair around the tip of the beak is just flair that fleur de lis have sometimes source I am from NOLA.

When Mike Fitzpatrick went to the Blackhawks in the late 90s he basically had a black mask with three Hawks logos stuck to it. He didn't last long, IIRC.

That was my favorite goalie mask ever.

Roy started out with the AVS in a plain white mask.

Anyone remember Chris Osgood playing for the Islanders still wearing Red Red Wings pants?
