Invin Posted December 29, 2013 Report Share Posted December 29, 2013 So awesome I'd like to see the goalie pads done up with art like this all the time. Probably too distracting and hard to regulate vs. the small surface of a mask, but it could be so cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heartbreaker Posted December 29, 2013 Report Share Posted December 29, 2013 Actually, most goalies are wearing white, and there's good reason. I remember Fleury's yellow pads, and I thought they were the coolest. Here's an article for ya: http://www.thestar.com/sports/hockey/2013/03/05/do_white_pads_give_goaltenders_an_unfair_advantage.html It's Toronto based media, so you can take it as absolute fact. Further, Devan Dubnyk says he doesn't care what colour his pads are, and feels that it doesn't make much of a difference... No kidding. http://www.edmontonjournal.com/sports/Gregor+Mandatory+black+goalie+pads+could+lead+more+scoring/7782007/story.html Love. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
