Hockey helmets?

Post by Falconfreak90 »

Yo Flock,

Saw BG dropped a hard fought game. ESPN had it as a 3-2 final. :roll:

Quick question...what color are the hockey helmets this year? Looking at the S-T pix online, they look BROWN at times...or are they black?

Must admit I like the new uniforms. Still like BOWLING GREEN spelled out better but the new unis look sharp.

Sounds like the team played hard...no shame in losing to #12. Just keep up the effort!

No shame to losing to the #12 team at home?

Remember there are only 49 DI teams and about the last 8-12 of them are not even close to being competitive on a nightly basis with the top 4 conferences.

They are RBK 8K Pro Stock helmets. The orange you see is actually the color of the composite liner inside the helmet. BC wore similar helmets last year, but in a gold and maroon scheme.

I have one in blue and silver scheme, it is a nice helmet, but not as comfortable or nice as the Nike/Bauer 8500's in my opinion.

I agree the new unis look better than I expected.....

59, but who's counting?
Till the end of the season, anyhow, when there becomes 58.

Best thing on the ice was certainly the unis - I like the whole package!

The away jerseys have BOWLING GREEN spelled out on the front. And, I love the new BROWN helmets with ORANGE on them!! Absolutely LOVE IT that we have BROWN back in the hockey uniforms!!! :supz: :partyman: \:D/ :smt041 :smt038
"Regarding BGSU, I would think their biggest strength is that they never give up, They never slow down and they battle hard even after the other team scores. We have to be on our game and never, ever take the foot off the gas for a second."

"BG was relentless. It's like they know that a good first pass on the breakout from a defenseman will almost always result in an odd-man rush against them - but they go in anyway and dare you to make that pass. All three of their goals were just grit and effort. That's a team any fan can be proud to support...they give all they've got."

I like the whole package -- helmets, sweaters, everything. They look good.

I hate the home sweaters. Way too many "Peek-a-boos." Three logos is overkill for a sweater.
