You can just scuff the paint that's already on there, and I know about painting and how it needs to be rough when it's a plastic type getting painted, or whatever the mask it made of.

i was going to paint my mask a few years ago, so i researched it. you have to rough up the mask with a weak grade sand paper. it takes a long time to sand it right.

regardless, the original question was if millers olympic mask was his jap mask. and the answer is no.

No need for violence, just tell her she's got a game misconduct and show her the door.

As I said in the GDT, the call on Rivet was horseshit. The Bruins player was holding onto Rivet's stick like it was the last fucking raft on the Titanic.

no. its more trouble then its worth. bishop would have to sand it down and remove the padding and buttons, taping over other things.... that alone is a day or two of work.. its not just simple sanding, it has to be a weak grade so it takes FOREVER. and im sure warwick helps out miller any way he can. my guess is miller doesnt do a new mold every year.

remember a few years ago, miller had a winter classic mask made for one game, and an all-star game mask made. he wouldnt skimp on the olympic mask.

also, most mask artists wont repaint a mask they previously painted.

but check out these barf pads. same CCM vector 10 pad base, new graphics by RBK.

I'm always amused how goalie masks bring out the fashionistas in hockey fans.

i wasn't trying to undermine what you said mike, just pointing out what i saw

oh, i know! i just chomp at the bit to talk goalie equipment.

last night i was at the bar that is attached to our arena. a kid walked by with RBK pads, and i go, RBK pads suck! joking around. he got upset, so i talked to him. and he left, so i thought. i went out to the parking lot with my friend, ralphing, and the same kid approached me, and said, so why do my pads suck? and i said, i was kidding, i cant afford revokes, and i wear fucking eagle pads, i was just kidding. he wanted to fight me over it though. guess that made me a douche for a minute though.
