I started this spring playing goal, and bought a new helmet/cage combo to play in (since I hate switching equipment back and forth between goalie and skater bags). Two weeks ago, I took a hard shot to the head that dented the cage quite a bit and and took out two welds.

As a result, I'm in the market for a goalie mask.

There's some cheap Itech 1400's on eBay, but I've also read some bad things about the 1000/1200/1400 series. I've heard good things about the NXi Phantom, though (http://www.nxidefensesystems.com/html/phantom.html). Anyone use this mask or otherwise have any opinions on it? I know Tuxedo Source for Sports in Calgary sells them...
I never had any problems with my 1200 but again I read bad things so I went on a search and for the $$$ the NXI mask is the best deal, I ordered one today off of there site and got an email within an hour asking what color of straps I wanted so they get a good recomend from me
