     What always amazed me were the goalies that played without a mask. When I started watching hockey there were still some goalies that didn't wear a mask.
     Speaking of masks. I love the vintage goal masks better than the masks worn today.

I think Oshie is the only player on our team not afraid to attempt a backhander. We pass up many scoring attempts due to being on the backhand. Fling that shit top shelf!!

Damn right!  Granted, that was wooden sticks with little to no curves, but still.


I think Sawchiuck was the first goalie to wear a mask, but after Howe & Richard. many followed suit 🤣

Maintained a .06 GPG though out his carrer, misssed one season w/a strike, & now two partial seasons with Covid,   He should be about at if not over 800 now if these where full seasons

Yeah, if those made a come back somehow. 
I know the visibility restriction, but those were so cool.

     There was also a shortened season due to anther strike. Including the 2 strike seasons and Covid seasons he has lost around 150 games.

     No of course not. I got used to watching and playing without a visor.
The eye injuries still happen. Even with visors.
      I'm not against visors at all. I think Don Cherry hated the visors.

    Jaques Plante has always been given credit as the first NHL goalie to wear a mask back in 1959. A little before my time so I don't know how truthful that is.

       I shouldn't have called him that but someone here mentioned that Chara could star in horror movies after his hockey career was over.
