Goalie gear is of interest to hockey fans everywhere, whether it be pads or masks, because we love seeing what unique design goalies will come up with next.

Just when we think we've seen it all in regards to designs on masks, a goalie shares his or her new mask and it's something we've never seen before and that's the perfect segue to get to Connor Hellebuyck new mask for the upcoming season.

Yes, Dustin Byfuglien fishing is on Hellebuyck's new mask and he explained why he put "Big Buff" on his mask, as well as why he went with the theme of fishing.

Hellebuyck got into fishing this summer thanks to Byfuglien, so it was only fitting that he put him on his mask.

The mask looks phenomenal and the fact that Big Buff is on it makes it that much better.  The Vezina finalist may have a new mask, but he's got essentially the same team in front of him which means if he plays well again, the Jets should be contenders.
