Winter Classic Goalies

[Wing Across The Pond 196]

Just saw on Facebook, the NHL showing off the Pens Winter Classic masks, Fleury's just looks plain boring whereas Johnson's is a little better, but just says 'Winter Classic' on it.

Not to mention the Jersey looks pretty awful too (side-note)

Agreed. I like the concept behind Fleury's. Johnson's is okay, does he usually reference Led Zeppelin, though? And what are those 01.01.11 things in the background? Scarves?

I liked the first mask, a lot. The only thing I hate about the jersey is the baby blue number shadow.

I like Fleury's nice and simple but still looks nice. Too bad those jerseys are a bit ugly. Johnson needs to drop the Zepplin references, haha a bit over kill.

I kind of like Fleury's mask, any pictures of the caps' masks?

Those uniforms are horrendous. I do like the old school Caps but the Penguins ones (for probably obvious reasons) are nauseating. I do have that puck daddy drinking game printed out so the uniforms might actually start looking decent by 1st intermission.

Masks aren't all that creative, but they could be worse.

Uniforms to me are actually pretty solid. I do not like powder blue at all, but like more dark/navy blue so I kinda like these that they are using. Hopefully they won't have to use a 3rd set of Winter Classic jerseys anytime soon.

Flower boys mask reminds me of masks from the 90s for some reason. It's pretty cool.

You'd think the penguins would be running out of jersey ideas for these winter classics, being in one every year.

winter classics should be only played between original six teams. Its supposed to be about history and s***

Pens do have history....Caps on the other hand....not so much. 3 Cups to none.
