2023-24 New Goalie Equipment and Mask Sightings

[CuuuJooo]

No! Bring back the black gear!

I realize that the trend isn’t going anywhere at this point, but white-based pads are so BORING.

Come back, Mike Smith. Your people need you.

Ugh, hope Skinner doesn't go to Bauer. Loved his CCM set and since losing the Lefevre deal they've become more and more rare.

Hope to see more guys switching to Brians and Vaughn and away from True and Bauer.

Thread seems awfully short for mid-August…

The best thread of every summer

Until Dave starts painting goaler masks.

My problem with DaveART is sure it "looks cool" close up, but it all looks like the same blurred crap from a distance normally.

DaveArt sucks

Make goalie mask drawings look like the Mid 90s aesthetic again...

Blackhawks alum Scott Darling's simple but clean CCM setup:



Jake Allen is reportedly moving to Bauer gear from True:

 

[Hockeyfan2390]

Damn it. I thought on first glance this was a Canucks retro lid.

 

[Kevinsane]

Damn it. I thought on first glance this was a Canucks retro lid.

This is brutal. No symmetry whatsoever.

Who did Hiller’s masks back in the day? His were so sick. One of the first to use matte and gloss and with a shit ton of style.

DaveArt is a great artist, but his style and aesthetic are just so Web 2.0…

Yes his cannabis plants is usually ready this time of year

That's too bad. Allen usually has pretty slick style with his gear. Sad to see him potentially switching to those generic road hockey looking Bauers.

Joey D'Accords new mask.

Dave is the type of bloke to take a mask with a black hole theme and add lens flares to the black hole.


Davefart would probably add lens flares to this mask:



A murdered out mask looks pretty slick, I wish Jarry wore this.

He did the matte helmets for him and was fantastic, it's Alec Voggel of Airxess.

He hasn't done an NHL mask in a while, mostly does Euro league masks. But Hiller had some amazing ones by him.

The bottom mask is blah to me.

Joey D'Accords new mask.

Would someone think of the lens flare?!

 

[biturbo19]

Joey D'Accords new mask.

This one is kinda weird, but i think...i might kinda like it? Mixed feelings.

Mmm...symmetry.

Big cat teeth. Normalize masks that look like creature faces again imo.

 

[Hockeyfan2390]

Why would a goalie wear the mask dangler in practice but not games?

 

[Esq]

So great to see more goalies going away from boring white-dominated pads.
