That joker mask of Ramo's may be the most insane thing I've ever seen meant to be worn at a family friendly event. I love it.

I don't think Ramo has ever had much Flames related things on his masks

Yep, I think his designs are very very sharp (especially for the whole death theme).

The Edgar Allan Poe half-face/half-skull image somehow makes both skulls and Poe more creepy.

Zombie Poe is the only thing I don't like about the mask.

To be blunt, it looks ridiculous.

Looking at them though, I know his masks have never really been Flames-centric, which is fine, but he could have easily put some small flames around the wings of the raven, and/or the skulls.

The Luongo picture on the backplate cracks me up.

Looks like Jaro didn't get the memo on the black jerseys.

What is on the chin? I can't tell. A lighthouse?

The black uniforms are only an alternate. They're still going to wear the blue and orange for most games.

It looks like the lighthouse logo they had as the shoulder patch on the fisherman jerseys...

I know this isn't an original question (and maybe have been brought up in this very thread, perhaps even by me) but what is it with the skulls, skeletons, and general cheesy spookiness on goalie masks? So many of them look like they've been ripped off from a metal album or a wicked old van.

I think it's the perception that skulls are intimidating personally, but only a goalie would know lol

I would honestly suspect in our case its because Ramo and Ortio are both Finnish, and therefore likely metalheads.

I've said it before, and I'll say it again: Finns love skulls.
