Best Goalie Masks #4-Edmonton Oilers

        When you are playing for a team who's name brings to mind a sweaty guy covered in black oil, there's not much to work with in terms of goalie masks. These two did the best they could, and came up with some pretty good masks.

BEST EDMONTON OILERS GOALIE MASK:

00-01 TOMMY SALO

 If there was an olympic sport for goalie masks, Salo definitely wouldn't choke against Belarus. He might take it all the way. To represent his team, what did he do? He plastered a bunch of Oilers logos all over his mask. In 1999-00, Salo had his career best season in wins, GAA, and save percentage, all while wearing this mask.

HONOURABLE MENTION:

91-92 BILL RANFORD

If someone were to stretch, bend, and twist the Oilers logo to fit on a goalie mask, they'd probably come up with something like Bill Ranford's. With the orange and blue swirls and the trademark oil drop, this mask is a simple, yet effective one.

Pack Update

        Tiny pack update. Stopped at a dollar store on the way home today, picked up the last remaining hockey card pack and, unfortunately, I already had three of the five cards. However, here are the good ones:

10-11 Zenith Corey Crawford-A cool Crawford RC, and I've never had a Zenith card before.
08-09 Upper Deck Ovation Claude Giroux-Already had this card, but figured 2 is better than one.
11-12 Upper Deck Victory Rookie Adam Henrique-Also had this card before, but still a cool card.
