Keep it simple.

Eddie Lack wasn’t sure what to expect when he decided to let fans design his mask for the upcoming season, but the more submissions he received, the more he realized simple was the route to go.

No lasers, no storks, no Swedish chefs.

“There was even one with just meatballs on it,” laughed Lack. “There were some really interesting designs, some weird ones too; I don’t think people take me serious enough, there was some Batman stuff even. All that was missing was an ABBA mask!”

Surely someone will take a chance on that in the future. Until then, Justin Mo’s mask design is what Lack will be wearing in battle with the Vancouver Canucks next season.

“The thing that I liked about this one is that it has the mountains, which represents Vancouver, a little version of the city up close, all the Canucks logos, Sweden and Canada too – it’s pretty much got everything.”
