Is there a better advertisement for the 50th anniversary of the goaltender mask? I don’t think so.

Khabibulin's new mask ... sexy, yes?

Khabibulin's new mask ... sexy, yes?

First off, thanks to The Goalie Guild for the breaking news, and to David Staples, whose blog brought this to my attention.

Is this effing hot, or what? This thing is gorgeous. On top of the hotness that we behold from the eagle * / wall smashing, we also see Grant Fuhr’s vintage mask in there. Absolutely friggen hot.

Thoughts?

Check out this link to see what his pads look like, from a recent practice.

* – The eagle is likely the two-headed eagle as seen in the Russian Coat of Arms.

UPDATE:

Here are pics from different angles so you can see the whole mask:
