Loving the set up, much better than his TPS set two years ago. I kinda wish he would have used more modern pads in the last years in the 'HL.

I agree, he's looking very good in those, much better than in his old TPS crap he used to wear

I guess i must be one of the few who liked the TPS's better.

Hasek was an Unbelievable goalie with a very VERY unorthodox style of play. He, just like Brodeur wasn't confined to just the butterfly style of play, and i thought his pads really showed that, while most goalies were going into the Butterfly suited pads, he just used what he liked, just like Brodeur does.

It's a ProMask, same glove that Johan Hedberg wore last season. I think they ceased production on anything but masks when they were contracted by Reebok though.

It may just be built at the same factory as I remember ProMask ghosting their stuff somewhere in the Czech Republic.

I think the Promask equipment was made in Czech Republic if my memory serves me right.

Do you have any idea what equipment Hedberg will have this season?

Promask equipment and current Hasek's catcher is made by STA (unfortunately their pages are just in Czech language).

On this picture you can see STA logo on it:

Personaly I don't like his setup, I hope he will play better than he looks.

PS: Today he should get new helmet.

Is this official or is there any chance that a team will still give him a training camp tryout of some sort? Or are you referring to his equipment?

He's still no.1 goalie in HC EATON Pardubice, don't worry.

Yesterday it was his first ice time after 14 months, but he's in great condition, he should play first pre-season match on 7/30.
I can go to watch him in the afternoon if I will have free time and take more pictures, if somebody is interested.

OK, thanks for the information.

I'd be interested in seeing some pics and an assessment of his play and whether it has changed since he last played in the NHL.

Thanks.

Yeah, GJM is me. Thanks...

Man, if I'd seen Warrior gear, don't you think I would have snapped a picture?

I didn't see anything other than a stack of sticks.

Warrior's guys are tight-lipped to the point of hilarity at times--they had a booth at the Joe during last year's "fan fest" and it featured a Warrior goalie stick, so I asked the rep about it, and he said that it was just an example of work they'd done with Montreal, and that they weren't planning on adding goalie sticks to their portfolio
