Wasn't that Roberts?
I vaguely remember Roberts putting on something similar during his comeback in '96 and Ron MacLean doing a little piece on it for HNIC. Think he removed it later because he found it too restrictive though.
Maybe both of them had something similar at one point, Bearcat was crazy like a fox.
