Brodeur was/is using the same chest protector from Juniors (I think he finally got a new one this year, but I'm not sure if he's still using it).

Compared with something standard today like:

The first chest protector isn't from his Junior years. It looks like a heaton helite 6 version so it was about the time he had these pads

How about Chris Pronger's size 7 skates?

I'm 5'9" and I wear a size 9 1/2.

I think Paul Coffey was known for very small skates.

Two things that come to mind:

Garry Galley and his cutoff socks. Not sure if it was unique to him, but he cut the stirrups off, more comfortable I guess.

Craig Ludwig's shin pads.

I’m surprised this thread didn’t ’last’
I’ve seen some crazy stuff at the ducks team gear sale, particularly the skates. There’s so many pieces glued/attached to skates you can’t tell what model they are
