I'm sure someone has already posted this, but I was trying to find a link to it. During tonight's game, Howie wore his new helmet after EDM scored their first goal. (Merge/Delete if necessary)

If anyone has any better pictures, please post. Was kind of surprised he didn't wear it from the beginning, simply could have been a superstitious move.

Yeah thats what I thought. He came back from the bench after the first goal and put that on.. maybe he had it on the whole game and got it adjusted.. but it sure seemed he switched em out at that point to me.

He was not wearing it all game. He put it on sometime during the 3rd period.

I think he changed it after the first goal because he thought that because he thought they were up by 4 and there is no chance of a shutout so he might as well break in the new helmet

He wore the ock helmet until they scored. The camera panned on him while he made the change, but no comment was made at all about it. I thought it was a superstitious move, but it well couldve been to break it in.

Sweet! Thanks for the link. I knew that Howard had a 3rd mask that he was going to reveal, just didn't expect him to switch mid game.
