I am trying to push myself to get going on these posts. It's hard this season, but I'm really trying.
If there is a goalie you'd like me to do first, just leave a comment and I'll do them as they are requested. If no one asks for anyone in particular, I'll just go alphabetically by team.
Gibson is up, and I'll try to at least do one a day, hopefully more.
The position of goalie has an inherent romanticism: masked men clad with cool armor, serving as the last line of defense. They play entire games, with an unparalleled ability to impact outcomes. When they're on, they can single-handedly defeat a giant foe. They are the consummate underdogs and towering superheroes all at once.

This is John Gibson's latest Ducks mask in a new era of Ducks masks. John knew what he wanted on his new mask, and this mask is a first step in a series of masks. John wanted to pay tribute to legendary Ducks players from the history of the franchise. And what could be better than start with the first Ducks goalie, Guy Hebert. So this mask is a total tribute to Mr. Hebert. The design is inspired from Hebert's iconic Ducks masks created by Dennis Simone. And when you come closer the mask transforms into a storybook. There on the side behind the feathers, you will find a painting of Hebert, and also his iconic mask.
