This video was produced by the CRB Foundation in honour of Jacques Plante. Plante was injured by NY Rangers' star Andy Bathgate, and started the trend of goaltenders wearing masks.

  • lol I could do goal without a mask, thanlks to a terrible accident I was in my bones were replaced with titanium metal so no mask? no probs lol

  • @Jsouthwell2006 you needed someone else to tell you that taking a flying puck to the face without a mask isn't a good idea?

  • Jacques Plante, Terry Sawchuk, Glen Hall, Johnny Bower, Gump Worsley......the best of the best. They stood bare faced against Bobby Hulls 120 MPH slapshot. That took BALLS. And to think Glen Hall used to puke between periods...wow. No backup goalie either.

  • @B69ne oh yeah. fuckin right it hurts. i caught a few in face.

  • @TheDaleDenton I can't imagine having balls big enough to play goaltender in ice hockey without wearing a mask. Stopping a puck with your face is just to painful.

  • @B69ne clint benedict was actually the one who wore it first when he stoped a puck wiht his nose. that was almost 30 years before plante

  • I'm surprised there aren't any more Hockey Heritage minutes...or are there?

  • @tylerdurdonxx i play street hockey with out a mask but thats only cus we us a little orange ball, i wouldnt imagine using the gear they have either

  • @Sitflyer2000 ive seen his book in stores but i havnt gotten it yet

  • @Jsouthwell2006 Yeah im a goalie too. I agree with you bro. Can't imagine playing without a mask. I take shots to the mask in a game and my ears are ringing for the next period or two.
