My guess would be an Olympic(TM) torch.

It looks like it was drawn by a 10 year old.

He is also wearing #39 for the Olympics, not 30.

Yeah, it's the torch - pretty obvious to anyone who has been paying attention to the upcoming Olympics. I remember when Canada unveiled the torch design a year ago or so, and everyone was remarking that it looked like a huge marijuana joint.

And I'd say it looks pretty good. I'd like to see anyone on here paint a better mask.

I think the cross is for his nephew that died?

Well it may be a torch but it doesn't look like anything in the spirit of the Olympics, it looks like a stick lit on fire that Uncle Sam is going to beat someone with.

the Olympic torch looks more like this, which is why I still don't quite see it.

Cousin.

Maybe it's just a mark used in the creation and hasn't been cleaned up.

Overall... it looks silly.

The 'cross' is the olympic dude that you see on the real torch - look at the picture of Crosby I posted.

Overall... it looks badass.

The only thing missing is a cartoon of Crosby being waterboarded. That would make it perfect.

Still looks like a stick that Uncle Sam is going to use to beat someone to a pulp, it looks nothing like he's about to light the Olympic flame.


I don't hate the design, I just question the so called torch and religous addition of a cross.... I personally don't want anything religous involved in the Olympics, politics, or anything for that matter... and that cross definitley is not the "Olympic Dude" on the actual torch... that is very obvious, and for me upsetting especially if it was intended to be a religous symbol

I like it.

If it's the torch, great.

If it's a flaming stick that he uses to beat people with, great.

At least it's not the same old boring thing most goalies will wear. I like that he switches things up for special events.

That mask looks good. I like it. Just because the design doesn't feature what you think the Olympic torch should look like doesn't make it the mask suck.

Haven't seen it yet. Even the article I found the picture on said we don't know what is on the other side.

If someone finds it, post it, but I don't think it's been shown yet.

I guarantee it's supposed to be the Olympic dude. The picture isn't close up enough to see.

Op would argue that it's not actually a mask.

this is my bills fandom speaking, but i don't like the multiple dallas cowboy stars on the helmet. i know that's not what they are, but it kinda looks like it and i'm not happy. the head plate better say, Buffalo, God's country.

The Sabre thru the heart is a cool way to get the Buffalo Sabres logo on the helmet. WIN!

Don't Tread on Me is one of the oldest american slogans, and predates the revolution
