Any pics of the Hockey get-up?
Also, does LU's goalie have one of those custom painted helmets that are so popular among NHL goalies and some baseball catchers?

Mike and I just got matching helmets...I don't know that we will have the money to get them painted....however we are excited to have them and hopefully we will be putting on some nice decals to make them look good.

Somebody has to know somebody who has a cousin who works for a detailing shop somewhere that would have the equipment and maybe a discount to offer their services to custom paint the helmets with great graphics.

The plain white helmets look good.
The yellow pads on the other hand...

I think the white is good for the main ice players; I was referencing the Goalie Helmets being custom painted like the NHL guys or some baseball catchers.

I agree with the golie helmets being painted. In high school our goalie had his helmet painted...I imagine it was a type of deal like was mentioned above, I think it was done at an auto shop.
I mean, if you just wanted the helmet painted metallic blue or metallic red, they could probably due it at MAACO, or however you spell it.
Any of our flamesclub members have a hook-up with a detailing shop that can get our goalies a deal?

Another example. There used to be a guy that had a booth that airbrushed shirts and stuff. I asked him to make me a Liberty University license plate using the colors purple and black to match my fog lights in the front of my car (PA didn't require front license plates). I can't remember how I got the plate, but the paint job he did was awesome, and I think he charged me $20.
