2016-17 New Goalie Equipment

[Hockeyfan2390]

Hmmmm.

"Thatcher Demko's latest mask creation is here. Thatch and I had an idea, how about create it in a total retro style? Trust in the contrasts and colors and build the design on the awesome Canucks logos. The matte finish also gives the design a very clean look, and a very subtle use of special effects. It was a very exciting project to paint and create this piece! @tdemko30 @canucks #DaveArt @uticacomets #nhl #DaveArtCreativity @theahl @nhl #DaveArtTheGameChanger"

There is literally nothing "retro" about that mask. Zero. It's awful. And I'm a Canucks fan.

 

[StrangeVision]

Yeah, that mask is pretty terrible.

 

[DarrylshutzSydor]

Remove the flare at the bottom of the pad, equipment with no body part behind it making the save (butterfly position). Bring back the skate save.......

What is with the dragon skin?

"The next chapter of Henrik Lundqvist's mask saga is here. It is blue, red and white, and it breathes the Rangers and Lundqvist to the core. The closer you come the deeper into the story you come, as the true Storybook mask it is. And for sure the DaveArt Trademark Super FX is unleashed all over the creation! @hank30nyr @nyrangers #DaveArt #nhl #DaveArtCreativity @nhl @bauergoalie"

 

[SladeWilson23]

Awesome mask for Hank.

Awesome mask for Hank.

Praise for DaveArt? That's an HFBoards first!

Curtis McElhinney

 

[Hockeyfan2390]

Another good shot of McElhinney, looks like he added pad-skins to his gear to cover up the red.

 

[Hockeyfan2390]

It is rough, it is raw, it is scratched... it has been in a couple of fights... Let us unleash Marek Mazanec's latest Preds bucket. And as the storybook it is, the closer you come to the painting the deeper inte the story you come... I just love to work with the details...@mazi222 @predsnhl @mkeadmirals #DaveArt #nhl #DaveArtCreativity @nhl #DaveArtTheGameChanger @theahl

Cam Talbot rockin' some new pads (I assume for orange jersey games) at the skills competition today.

For reference, this is his current gear he wore last night for the Flames game.

That gear is awful.

This doesn't look finished. The edges of the... whatever it is that's on the front look like they've been cut on MS Paint.

 

[Slot]

That gear is awful.

It's almost like he was picked up on waivers earlier this week..

 

[Ceremony]

Oh, hold on a minute

Carter Hutton new lid:

ahahhahahahahahahahahahhahaha

that font

Tragic.

 

[nhlfan9191]

Other then the mask, what is he changing? Likely nothing.

Really awesome. He didn't wear it yet.

I like this for Matt O'Connor (source -> http://ingoalmag.com/masks/matt-oconnor-brings-back-warrior-helmet-ottawa/

 

[Hockeyfan2390]

Lundqvist's new pads.....what in the world....

 

[SladeWilson23]

Daveart does good work.

 

[PlamsUnlimited]

Lundqvist's stuff looks like variations of his Crown Collection apparel

 

[Del Preston]

Lundqvist's new pads.....what in the world....

At first glance I thought the pad graphic was a maple leaf.

Those look horrible.

It's retro in that it lacks all of the Dave Trademark Super FX!

That was my thoughts too. Looked like the stylized maple leaf used on the WCH jerseys this year.

Sadly, I actually think that's what it means.
