Hockey Goalie Helmets

instead of a catchers mask
THe padres catcher, Cardinals catcher.... a lot
and pirates

First of all it's not a hockey mask. The design is taken from hockey, and it is often referred to as such, but it is a catcher's mask.

Second ,it is much much lighter.

Third, you can see more w/it on than a traditional mask.

Fourth, it doesn't slide around on your head the way the traditional masks do when you look-up for a pop-up.

Fifth, they stay in place when you throw.

New Project

not including contact lense
would roll cage helmets like hasek from the red wings work?
anything glasses that are made for goalies?

Most eyeglass companies now make sports glasses that are anti-fog and form fitting and I have seen some guys wear them under masks. They are a bit pricey but if you cant (I cant) wear contacts then that is your best option. I wear my everyday glasses (I play forward) and they fit very easily under may cage but they are a Nike flex and I use an anti-fog spray that works well. The one problem is I have lost the puck on occasion (rare) trying to quickly look down or off to a side but just like wearing them everyday you adjust pretty quickly. My Nike glasses dont slide so if you dont want the sport glasses you can see what your local companies offer in the everyday wear in the sporting styles so you can dual wear them. Works for me.

Includes micro goalie masks for all 30 NHL teams

Is there much of a difference, and would it be legal to wear an ice hockey mask during a floorball game?

The ice hockey helmet is much heavier and safer. You could take an ice hockey helmet to a floor hockey game. No one ever complains if you wear too much equipment. You couldn't go the other way though because a floor hockey helmet would explode (and possibly your head with it) if you got nailed with a good slap-shot.

I go a (BAUER) MASK which is really good big space to see around and small size with the cage way better procations. RBK also have good one but it samilar to Bauer

whats the difference between ice and roller?
Can I use a roller hockey helmet on ice?(Will i get hurt)

You can wear an ice helmet for roller hockey but I would not wear a roller helmet for ice hockey. The ice helmets are made to withstand hockey pucks coming at you at 90 mph.

I used an Itech 1200 when I first started out. that helmet would be fine for roller hockey but I quickly up graded it when I started playing higher level ice hockey.

You can get some great, used ice hockey masks on eBay.
