Also for Hockey Fans... What's your favorite Hockeymask design?
 

We all know that Casey Jones has an awesome mask. One of my favorites. But I think we should talk about real life masks.

Gary Cheevers - Simple and Bad@$$

Gary Bromley - I always love skulls and this mask is Awesome. So awesome that they made a similar version for the movie Youngblood.

The late Pelle Lindbergh - Based on a variant of Jacques Plant's Fibrosport masks. It doesn't need paint to look awesome.

Warren Skorodenski - Again, I like this because it looks as if Skelletor was minding the net. Awesome mask.

Gilles Meloche - I love the paint design of this mask. Looks almost modern in how it was painted. Plus I like the color scheme.

John "Beezer" Vanbiesbrouck - I like the colors and the design in whole. Kinda reminds me of a Power Ranger mask.

I like the goalie masks that Cheevers and Bromly had. Back then the masks were more simplistic for the design to show off.

Ken Dryden had an interesting mask

I always thought it was funny to have a target on your face. Although he was more famous for his "pose" while the play was at the other end of the ice.

Now a days you need a good design to fit the current style of goalie helmets. For instance:

Others just don't work. Take for instance, Gerber. The Sens first got him as a bench warmer, but once our primary got hurt he got a shot between the pipes. Since he and others didn't believe he would be there very long, he just kept using a plain black helmet. So he got the nickname Darth Gerber. Once he started playing well, they made him a helmet.

It's difficult to make out. Too subtle. Coincidentally once he got the helmet he started sucking.

"The Dominator" Dominik Haesk

Always been a fan of his even before he came to Detroit. I like this design despit the fact it has less to do with his mask and more to do with his Helmet. Showing Detroit muscle by showing a big revving wheel attached to a big motor.
