Marc-Andre Fleury unveils Golden Knights mask
While one goaltender with the Vegas Golden Knights is soliciting help for his design, another is proud to display the finished product.
With CCM, Marc-Andre Fleury has unveiled his latest in the vast collection of custom-designed masks that he’s worn throughout his NHL career – and his first branded in the Golden Knights theme.

Fleury’s known for his creativity – his previous works are essentially a celebration of all things Pittsburgh. But with no franchise greats to profile or preferred teammates to jot down on the back, he kept this one relatively simple.
One flank displays a knight on a horse carrying the Golden Knights-branded shield, while the opposite side features a mob of them with distinctive features of the Las Vegas strip in the background. He rounds it out with his classic gold cage.
Quality work – but if you believe you have the chops for a superior design, the Golden Knights are running a contest to design Calvin Pickard’s headwear. (It closes soon).
We invite fans to share their suggestions for Pickard's review by using #PicksMaskContest.
