Fleury hands down
What are you talking about, that's a shitty mask, it's so obvious. A poorly drawn penguin bursting out of an igloo.
I hate pens fans, pittsburgh was my 2nd team before crosby and all his groupies showed up.
no, it's ok Ogre, vote for Pittsburgh because they're winning and the hot team right now. Don't let the integrity of this tournament get in the way of you being a complete tool.
The penguin breaking through an igloo has seemingly been done to death. This one and Conklin's are pretty much the same. I guess it's not easy to come up with something for a team with that name, but it'd be nice if someone tried.
if theodore loses this battle it would be a travesty. the gargoyle design is actually well done (unlike turco's) and the foot secondary is a nice accent too. jason's got it exactly right. if fleury and conklin traded masks for a week, no one would even bat an eye.
Like Toskola, Theo and others, I give points to goalies who use the same design for different teams. Moose Hedberg comes to mind too.
Roman numerals, snow accents, the concrete detailing, white elephant with #33 on the backplate, there's so many little things on Theo's mask, he should be winning this in a landslide.
MAF's mask is kinda pedestrian, IMO.
Ken Wregget's Penguins mask featuring Danny DeVito was pretty choice.
Yes Shane. It's a shame that a talented player showed up and brought fans to the game. It's a shame that he increased awareness of the league after a crippling lockout.
If you're that superficial I'd hate to see who your #1 team is.

Did I say it was a shame? No all I said was that the Penguins were my 2nd favourite team before Crosby showed up. Most Penguins fans haven't even supported the team before the lockout.
I understand he is ONE of the best players in the NHL, not THE best, but one of the best, he is possibly the next Great player, IMO not as good as the Gretzkys, Orrs or Lemiux's but yes he will be among the Bossy's, and Yzerman's, if he keeps up his play, but I don't like him, it's a personal choice, just like your choice to like the NHL's posterboy, on the poster-team, and I feel that the Pens tend to get a lot of calls going their way most of the time.
And your cockiness is exactly why people don't like the Pens and the guy they gave the "C" to, just so he can break a record.
1-"It's a shame that a talented player showed up and brought fans to the game."
1-Your not a fan if the only way your going to a hockey game is if you've got someone who is pegged as the next one.
2-"It's a shame that he increased awareness of the league after a crippling lockout."
2-You say that as if he was the only player scoring goals and showing up after the lockout, yes he helped, but to give that credit to Crosby is a joke.
And how am I being superficial? In regards to the mask, yes I am being superficial because that's the point, it's a poll on the mask, not how good the goalie is.
I am a proud Senators fan, even if we got swept by a great team this year, and I think they can learn from this year and have a strong run next year coupled with a defensive-minded, and strict coach who could help the young offensive-minded forwards like Spezza and Heatley.
Pick up a book about hockey instead of recycling a bunch of over-used comments you saw on a "Pens Rock" video on youtube.
learn to spell dingle berry.. fleury in a landslide. the back of the mask is just as sick
Where are my mistakes? Chances are they are typos, unless your referring to me saying favourite, but that is the canadian way of spelling it.
I don't expect someone who is probably another Crosby fan-boy to understand that, especially considering you also think that Fleury has a better mask.
Anyone who votes for Fleury is a pinko commie!
GO THEO!!!
I completely and absolutely agree with shane duarte
