Wingsfan4life19 26 Report post Posted November 10, 2008 If there is some benefit where it would reduce concussions, or head injuries in general, then I'm all for it. I'm sure the design can be tinkered with. However, if there is no real advantage of this to a helmet like CCM, then I can't see this really catching on too quick.

shannyfan1414 0 Report post Posted November 10, 2008 Cascade should stick to lacrosse. I will second that. They make the best helmet in lacrosse. Maybe if they left the stripes off it, which i'm sure they won't, it would look better. There first attempt at a hockey helmet was even worse. I will try and find a pic of it and post later.

Gretzky wore that JOFA. But that helmet looks horrible. It reminds of a bicycle helmet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stormboy 47 Report post Posted November 10, 2008 ??? o.O = yeah, if messier didn't have that awkward "i just pulled a prank on a 12 year old" look on his face, it might be a different story. that being said, i don't hate it. p.s. does it look to anyone else like kronwall has a different helmet this year? or is it just that he cut his hair and it's not hanging out the back of his helmet, so it makes his whole head look different...?

Casey 145 Report post Posted November 10, 2008 If it prevents head injuries, I'm all for. Otherwise, the classic CCM is enough. I was thisclose to picking up a Kronwall helmet last time i was at the Joe. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
