I hear this Jason kid reminds some observers of Billy Smith, and a bit of Hextall, too. No one gets too close to his crease. He prefers the retro mask because he feels trapped when looking through a cage. He also says pucks to the face don't hurt him, anyway. He's a monster

Bob's mask is sporting the original logo. I like seeing that logo in a prominent place. The new logo isn't terrible, but it just doesn't compare.
The best thing about the new logo is it seems to have the Quenneville stare...

I really like that he used the leaping cat logo, but, truth be told, I'm not feeling the mask as much as I was hoping.

I like the size and positioning of the leaping cat, but there's something about the brick wall and overly-polished (IMO) look of the whole thing that's sort of throwing me off.

I like that it's a pretty simple design. Many of Bob's mask artist's creations are too busy and cluttered looking. It is overly polished with a glaring shine to it, I think that detracts from the look, too. I'll have to see it in person to see if that impression sticks.
Training camp opened today.

I'm all about simplicity, too. Always believed that less is more

Agreed, it's just too polished/vibrant or something for me. I don't know...

You pumped for camp, Rats??
