Best Goalie Masks: Toronto Maple Leafs

       Much like the Canadiens, the Toronto Maple Leafs are a storied franchise, with many legendary goalies passing through their ranks, like Jacques Plante, Johnny Bower, Bernie Parent, Turk Broda, Ed Belfour, and, most recently, Curtis Joseph. However, all but two of these goalies played without a mask for the majority of their career, and those two are not in this blog post. The best goalie mask for the Toronto Maple Leafs is:

96-97 FELIX POTVIN

Felix Potvin was a highly-touted draft pick of the Maple Leafs, and he spent a good 6 years of his career there, putting up some of his best numbers. His mask is great, with no definite shape or form in its design, but appealing nonetheless. The colours fit very well with either the home or away jersey, and it is just an all-around nice-looking mask.

HONOURABLE MENTION:

14-15  JONATHAN BERNIER

In the midst of goalie turmoil in Toronto, Jonathan Bernier's mask is, sadly, a high point. The Leafs logo coming out of the cage is a great touch, and the colours merge together, matching perfectly with Toronto's uniform. Bernier's number is on the chin, adding a nice personal touch.
