A lot of goalies believe the theory that white pads make the shooter miss their shot more frequently

If Elliott believes that his colored pads give him an advantage and causes the shooters to miss more, are you going to tell him he's wrong?

Athletes, especially goalies, are a very superstitious bunch they believe what they want to believe because they feel it gives them an advantage... Let them

That being said, I really like the set... looking forward to seeing the set on the ice
