I worked for Eddy Masks years ago. 20 years ago. He made a great mask and always used top products in every mask. I still wear an Eddy to this day. It’s a shame he’s not in business anymore. But with the top brands shipping production over seas and paying top players to wear their product it’s hard to compete. I’ve never been hurt wearing my mask and I’ve had some rockets at my head. It would be nice to see Eddy come back to making masks again. I should have got a custom one from him when I was there. I’d still like one today. I remember the osgood one fit me perfectly.. Again amazing masks
This video should be titled: How "MODERN" goalie masks are made". Very interesting video. Back in MY day, I had a plaster cast made of MY face, and layers of fiber glass were heated and dropped on to it like cheese on a burger. Then the eye and vent holes were drilled and cut out. A lot of us wore that style of mask. It was basically like what Jaques Plante and Bernie Parent wore. The style shown here, basically what EVERYONE wears today, is pretty nice. I doubt it offers any more protection than the helmet and cage type, but it looks cooler!
My friends mask was black and it faded into a wolf head with lime green eyes at the top and fangs going down the side. (She played for Chicago Mission)
I got my helmet custom painted by Marlene Ross (lives in my town) It has my nickname (YOSHI) on both sides, graffiti style, and my team logo on the front, and the rest is landmarks in my town, like city hall, Memorial Center, and places like that, it's red, white, and black, IT"S PIMP!!!
@tylerdurdonxx I think it was the original intentions (guys started painting skulls and shit on their masks). Now its just to look cool and its just tradition.
Apewrench If I had to guess I would say it was an Eddy GT with a Molson paint job. The eddy pro had a full layer of Kevlar. The Eddy Custom Kevlar also had a full layer of Kevlar as well. The Custom LT also had full Kevlar. I believe their GT model only had spot reinforcement of Kevlar like this model. (I'm going off of memory as I've owned several Eddy masks and I used to work at a pro shop that sold them). They've been out of business for several years now. I still own one of their last high end models (eddy custom LT pro spec....Ben Bishop was the last NHLer to use this model I believe).
i dont think that putting on a goalie mask is a sign of weakness. i call that common sense. do skydivers use a parachute because that are weak, or do police wear bullet-proof vests because they are weak? its just dumb not to wear a mask, i mean come on....
Psychological tactic to intimidate the other team? lol.... I don't know about that one? They're just painted to look cool dude. C'mon like grown men are going to be scared by a mask.
how is your life?? I just saw your 9year old comment and liked it...and wondered what happened in the last 9 years of your life, did things got good or normal or bad...just curious, cheers!
haha yeah the first thing i look at when im on a breakaway is the goalies artwork on his mask and get intimidated by it. no. not really. i just look for an opening and then i shoot.

This is so cool. I would have loved to see Andrei Vasilevskiy's mask being painted.
I wish i could go back to time it was uploaded!
Was a better world, wasn't it ?
9:52 a nice tribute to Felix Potvin during his time with the Kings, who had his mask made/designed by the legend Greg Harrison
That water drop-thing was a smart effect

I miss those old school Jason style ones.
holy crap!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! thats awsome
i want to show this to my team's goalie
he'd be amazed
My friends mask was black and it faded into a wolf head with lime green eyes at the top and fangs going down the side. (She played for Chicago Mission)
i wanna work there!!!
what i've always wanted as a kid...baseball glove and goalie's helmet
Yes... what is more intimidating than a maple leaf on a mask? :D
Not much if you're a Ranger.
Anything else.. literally
I use to work for years back, he was a good employer much luv, I don’t know if he’s still in business
nice mask !!
this is awesome!
this is a sweet video
@HALOGLITCHES43. Masks made by Eddy Masks (the company in the show) are not $400. They are closer to $800.
I got my helmet custom painted by Marlene Ross (lives in my town) It has my nickname (YOSHI) on both sides, graffiti style, and my team logo on the front, and the rest is landmarks in my town, like city hall, Memorial Center, and places like that, it's red, white, and black, IT"S PIMP!!!

@135jt "daveart" is a very good site, good stuff, good pricing and AWESOME paintjobs! That man have painted many NHL goalie mask.
sick mask
if i found that mask in a store i would buy it lol
dam loll i would never remember how to make this
This is how specialty helmets are made most helmets are mass produced and use lower quality fiberglass
How does one find an average person?
whats a good website i can go to and ask them to make me one?
Anyone know what model Eddy was done with that Molson paint job at around 6:40, or anything additional about that mask?

So the GT’s were fiberglass with spot Kevlar in say forehead and chin?
@@APEWRENCH Yes, that's what I remember.
thats awsome
@TheCrockerShow thanks
sweet!!
9:54 was a Felix Potvin Remake
@tylerdurdonxx Scared =! intimidated.
You can affect the other players by looks, reputation and other power techniques.
What if the brick wall was watching
i dont think that putting on a goalie mask is a sign of weakness. i call that common sense. do skydivers use a parachute because that are weak, or do police wear bullet-proof vests because they are weak? its just dumb not to wear a mask, i mean come on....
You are stupid.
Bruh back in the day it was a sign of weakness how dumb do you have to be
You don't have to, it's your opinion.
coooooool
mostly because they're made out of fiberglass
sweet!!!!!!!!
@jholland311 distraction is different than intimidation. intimidation implies at least a little fear
This is how my dad makes them
So that's how a mask gets painted.
looks like recon helmet
@Hanacuna thanks
Anyone else here in 2018?
No. We've all been raptured and you're all that's left 😋
he dosnt paint every nhl mask
there are dozens of painters.
Todd Miska
Daveart
Mark Hart
eye candy air
Just to name a few.
Pengen bisa buat sendiri
so thats why the're all around 400 bucks
8:00 ..... 5*

why buy this when you can buy a bauer nme 7 mask for the same price and also has more protection
The profile line is way better then the NME line.. in my opinion anyway
That's not even potvins real mask. It's just some dude totally ripping it off. I hate when people steal other goalies designs
haha yeah the first thing i look at when im on a breakaway is the goalies artwork on his mask and get intimidated by it. no. not really. i just look for an opening and then i shoot.
Fuckin`A!
HOLYYYYYY...............CRAPPP
2020 BETCH
still not as cool as the masks of the 70s.
