Most concussions are body checks with no head contact. Tell that to Virginia Tech

Great video!! 10/10

This guy walks into Sportchek and splooges everywhere.

Modern goal tender masks look badass

what grit sandpaper did you use in the beginning when you were using the power sander?

Nowadays, I wouldn’t be worried about broken stick blades. can’t even remember the last time I saw a broken stick blade. It’s the shafts that break on modern sticks.

I found early years of sports really fascinating. You could make a video about the most weirdest soccer matches, what do you think?

Bet the fiber glass mask was loaded with asbestos. 😂

Bro... Cool it with the garbage music. Just stick with information.

I really enjoyed all the old videos and pictures of the equipment in use. Very cool. Kind of terrifying that it was accepted into the 70s to not wear a mask.

History of goalie pads, and odd goalie pads

Can you do the history of goalie pads?

Amazing video <3

I was sitting a long ways away from the monitor and first read the title as "Game Highlights using OneDrive Blades" and was wondering what a cloud service had to do with hockey XD

JOFA <3

Is this video a documentary or an ad?

I like the Friday the 13th Hockey Mask better than the dumb bird cage? Mike Palmateer , Ken Dryden, Eddie Giacomon and Gerry Cheevers ?

This was very informative and interesting. Thx for doing the research and sharing.

69 sucks!!!!!

Do not even have to watch this to know whoever did this has never seen a live game.

Have you ever seen a game before thinking of this.

I like that the older equipment made it so that butterfly style isn't overpowered like it is now.

Omg there were women's hockey back then??

Man.... those step steel blades would have been a total game changer. I was a little week going right to left. I had a strong glove but still.

Bro not bad at all!! Thank you for the shot out 😀❤️

remember the clear plexiglass one. May save your face but not your chin and fogged up bad.

One who violently resisted the transition from fiberglass masks to helmet and cage or modern masks was Jason Voorhees, who continues to play in the same mask he's worn since 1980

I'm old school, I think hockey players are pansies for wearing helmets and face masks. Hockey is a man's sport! 🙃

I still have my Cooper SK100 helmet

I'm for Utah Express - in honor of the state's connection to the Pony Express. Cheers!

My Bauer helmet is painful sometimes and IDK why

4:06 went from 😂 to 😐 real fast

I don’t know what they were thinking back then

Billy Smith revolutionized the mask

Bravo, Monsieur! You didn't miss a beat! 😊

Always respect the older generations. They were built different

This is a great vid. I'm rather surprised - and pleased at the same time - that the venerable Cooper SK100's are still available for GAA hurling players. Mind you, if I'd be mad enough to play a game of hurling, I'd rely on my Bauer 5000. I still use it, as a cycling helmet. That Jofa VM lid that The Great One wore, to my mind, is good enough for one purpose only - as a colander. I wonder if that gigantic helmet is still on the roof of their old factory.

Any goalies remember the Curtis Curve stick from the early 80’s?

I actually remember watching the first game where a goalie style mask was used in the MLB. It was Blue Jay's catcher Charlie O'Brian who got it approved after watching a Maple Leafs game and said in an interview he got the idea from realizing if a hockey goalie's mask is good enough to protect a goalie from pucks fired at 100 MPH, then it's good enough to protect a catcher from fastballs and foul tips coming in at 100 MPH. I noticed the following season some more catchers started using the hockey design in place of the traditional catcher's mask+batter's helmet backwards setup. Within a decade, I saw very few old school catcher's masks and even most/all of the umps now wear goalie masks for their head and face protection.

I looked into the Virginia Tech safety ratings and was shocked that the $400 CCM Tacks X helmet is the worst performing helmet on the market in terms of safety. There's a large percentage of the NHL that uses that one. Just goes to show that the pros will continue to prefer comfort over safety.

Dont forget, Fu##ing ads on helments. Out BH.

I don’t understand why hockey helmets don’t have a facemask visor combo like football helmets, no dumb looking bowl, no bars in your eyes, and nobody thinks football helmets look lame

I suspect that the Cooper people could have cared less about selling helmets to the 120 NHL players of the early 1960's- there were a quarter million or so of us minor hockey players who were all required to wear them. I had one of those SK 10s in 1969, as did everyone else. They must have done gangbusters business. Also: has anyone else been shocked by the prices on helmets lately? Three hundred bucks for a helmet and cage now? Holy smokes.

10+ years ago everyone had a Bauer 4500 because they looked awesome. 2nd place were those Reebok helmets that looked alright. Absolutely no one wanted to be caught dead wearing a Cascade.

Nice we got the history of hockey helmets, now we just need the history of hockey jocks and we'll have covered the two most important pieces of protection

@5:59 or in Gordie Howe's case, an exemption for players who were old enough to be a grandfather ... ;) I still see guys rocking Jofa helmets. The refs never enforce the helmet rules -- A) it's not allowed period and B) it's obviously expired (some plastic has a shelf life until it's more likely to be brittle and crack/shatter).
