I’m not in favour of advertising on equipment, but y’know… there’s something about this I don’t really mind. Quick guess why: the two gigantic beer cans.
If you own these pads, aren’t you obligated to get your lid painted to look like a beer helmet?
Hopefully your save percentage higher than the alcohol content
I’m headed to the A game at the Xcel this morning, I think, so fire me a tweet and let’s get together for a hello!

Fact:
I'm a hockey player turned writer. After playing for Alaska Anchorage in the WCHA (NCAA), I carried on with an NHL tryout (New York Islanders in 2007) before spending a couple seasons in the AHL/ECHL (last year was 2008-09). My father, Bob Bourne, won four Stanley Cups with the Islanders in the '80's, as did my fiancee's dad, Clark Gillies. I'm now the web editor for theScore's hockey blog "Backhand Shelf."
You should google the Homer Simpson Duff Beer goalie gear that one guy got.
That is waaay better than Heineken!
Those bring an all new meaning to “Beer League”.
talk about a distraction for the shooter
all the more reason not to send a shot into the goalies pads?
Make them Alexander Keiths and you would have a deal……would have to put those on my wall. Couldn’t bring myself to use them.
My guess is that any goalie using those pads would get a lot more use out of his helmet.
We have a goalie in our home league that has been known to chug a beer between periods… my brain has already named these pads after him.
I always thought the one thing Meatloaf wouldn’t do for love was eat less than 6000 calories a day
JB – am I detecting a flying squirrel reference?
