When exactly did the NHL put in the rule forcing players to wear helmets? Just looking at old videos, I figure it had to be in the mid/late 70s
Have they put any other rules about what kinds of helmets they have to wear(because the kind Gretzky and the rest of that generation don't look anything like the modern ones)
Also, when did goalies stop wearing the old Jason style masks and go to the modern big shell ones? Is there any set rule about having to wear masks like the current kind or Hasek style cages? I know they're not technically as safe, since they don't cover the ears or anything, but they looked so much cooler
