Ray Le Blanc with one of the early Wolves masks.

Norm Maracle was a member in teh early days of the Wolves AHL lives. He is Part Native American and has images honoring his heritage. Including warriors jumping over the skyline of Chicago with a wolf on either side and a skull of a steer on the forehead that was used from a tattoo he has.

Okay, I can make out Eric Claption -- but Richard Marx? Ehh. That's cool, I guess.

I think it's meant to be Robert Plant. I'm actually more a fan of the color scheme in the whole mask than the illustrations (the chin guard is my favorite part).

There comes a point when you don't stand for the constant heartbreak anymore, and walk away.

Story B: Red Wings go undefeated and score 100 goals in every game. They also beat a team comprised of Godzilla, the ghost of Abraham Lincoln, 2 Power Rangers and Betty White. Oh, and they played in the middle of Iraq on a military base. In the sand. With no ice. Santa gave them special sand-skates that allowed them to play in shorts and t-shirts in 115 degree weather. Jesus, Zeus and Buddha watched from the sidelines and ate cotton candy.

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.

that baby penguin mask is definitely a cool mask. it looks cute, but remember,this egg is probably angry because he can't find his mommy.

In the last game against Detroit, the time from ten minutes left to one minute left was probably the longest nine minutes of my life. But from one to zero was probably the greatest time I've ever had. I didn't want the clock to run out. It was such a great feeling: people crying in the stands, people jumping up and down, people cheering. Guys couldn't even sit up on the bench. It was probably the best minute of my life.

Ah, the "I'm kidding" - the universal internet excuse for saying something that others perceived as dumb.

I've always love Josh Harding's masks.

Paying homage to his roots as a kid playing pond hockey with his friends.

Paying tribute to the Ottawa Fire Department who put out a fire in the Wild's equipment truck, which destroyed all of the goalie gear a few years ago.

Tribute to his recently deceased grandmother Rose.

All of those are fantastic. I especially like the pond hockey one.

The pond one is nice, but ironic considering that he grew up in Regina, in the middle of the bald-a** prairie (my home town). Not too many naturally pine trees around there! :)
