Hockey equipment in general is incredibly pretentious. The feature or technology lists on any given piece of equipment read like they put together a computer guidance system.

Nice bucket, MacDonald.

Currently sporting a 1.48 GAA and .932 save % in the ECHL.

I remember a video the Flames posted during one off season where MacDonald was doing some catching drill with his dad on a baseball diamond. I remember it stuck out to me because he would catch three or four in a row and then drop one. It was like 'buddy, he's two feet away lobbing baseballs. Catch them all.'

It'd be good if Mason had a strong year though. Still only 22 years old. He also happened to be drafted 34th overall.

Haha -- I remember watching the same video and thinking the same thing.


Imagine if instead of Gillies or Parsons, it's actually McDonald that emerges as the NHL regular? I've pretty much written him off as nothing more than an AHLer, but goalies can be weird like that sometimes...

^^ Take away the 50,000 lens flares and that is a really, really, nice mask. Mike Smith, take note.

The characters on the sides look like Power Ranger villains.

Nothing makes a mask look like it came out of NHL 19 quite like a reverse C.

Any Flames goalies who are creeping this thread, and Rittich, I'm looking at you, here's your next mask.

Spoiler!

The Balrog is on one side, Gandalf is on the other end. On the back plate, it says "I am the servant of the Secret Fire, wielder of the flame of Anor. You cannot pass. The dark fire will not avail you, flame of Udûn. Go back to the Shadow!" in fiery Elvish script.

Along the jawline, in larger Elvish text, "YOU SHALL NOT PASS". Feel free to set the text on the bridge itself.

No reverse C required.

I haven’t seen a good Flames goalie mask in like 20+ years. I don’t understand why this is so hard when it’s a theme you could be so creative with.

It’s either skulls or ugly. And using Daveart I think is the problem actually.

Ramo's raven masks were amazing. But yeah, they had skulls.

Henrik Karlsson had some really good ones. I dig the retro Mike Smith helmet too.

this is the guy i use - he's an awesome artist and a great guy too! ...but he is in kelowna. http://www.rickevansartistry.com/


he's painted both of my masks twice (ha! i was too cheap to go buy a third/fourth mask). i'm hoping to replace/retire my oldest mask this summer and rick will be painting my new mask.


Spoiler!



with both repaints there was lots of chips that needed to be fixed


rick always gives me smoking deals, but i give him the mask and tell him "i'm in absolutely no rush - so whenever you have time."
it might be a couple months, it might be six, but it doesn't matter since i have another mask to use. i'm sure he charges more if it's a "i need it by this date" job.
