'Gear "Sitings" 2007-2008'

Wow, that's a really bad fitting Itech that Smith has.

This is an old picture, but I noticed Cloutier had a pretty heavy duty looking neck guard on the other night against the Canucks. Couldn't find a decent picture from that game, but this one looks the same. Does anyone know what he uses?

The left side of Smith's mask looks good and fits the Lightning theme/color scheme. The other side doesn't fit at all and sticks out like a sore thumb. Had both sides looked like the left I think a lot more people would like it.

I understand for regular joes' gear, but why not use embroidery for NHLers?

That is the standard thickness of foam on a 961 at the retail level. It is the same thickness as the 961 I own.

Can't quite tell, but it looks exactly like the same depth/padding as an old Brown I used to have. I wouldn't doubt if that's a Brown.

Yup, looks like the standard foam to me.

watching the caps game and noticed Huet with a new lid. It's mostly red with the alternate logo on the top, eagle heads on the side, and the main logo on the chin. Not too bad all and all. Not sure who painted it...but I would love to see a nice clear picture of it.

Wow, the crest that his team uses is the same crest we used for our jerseys this past season.

This is who painted it.. Griffe Originale - Peinture sur masque de gardien de but . It looks like that person painted a lot of NHL masks over the years. I wish I could read French to better understand the site.

Yeah, he's done some really nice masks. Usually I either love his masks or their lackluster. His new site looks great. Just wish it was easier to copy the photos.

The only embroidery they had that would come close to an NHL size would be the VAUGHN logo found on the C/A's. I guess that they could use that for PRO's, would look pretty cool.

I'd just use the PrintSceen button and crop it.
