Mine will be more difficult and require a hint: this guy played for Minnesota and Chicago and had his career prematurely ended by an eye injury.

Dave Babych was correct.

Isn't that Jet Ulf Nilsson?

Dave Babych was indeed correct, but leafsnation's first answer was Wayne Babych, and that was what I was referring to. He later edited his post.:-D

I did edit the post......but in my defense it was because I realized after I posted that it was not Wayne, but couldn't put my finger immediately on Dave.
I humbly request forgiveness on any perceived deceit and offer that any of my next 3 posts (should I be able to post pictures based on CORRECT answers) will be EXTRA EASY!

:notworthy: :cry: :oops:

Nah, I'm just lucky that the players today all belong to the era where I followed the NHL the most actively ;) Back then I collected hockey cards and spent so much time looking at them/sorting them that I knew all the players by their faces/masks. Quite frankly, I wouldn't recognize most of today's players.

I'll let Philou post the next picture since I found too many today :)

I put two images.

Has played for SaiPa and Blues in SM-Liiga. Made a contract with the Ducks just recently. Easy for the most Finns but maybe a bit harder for guys from other countries. Also played in EHT this year or at least I think so. :-k

Please don't look at the url of the pics :roll:

No guess yet (difficult one!), but a question out of curiosity: has it become a trend in SM-Liiga to even sell your mask to a sponsor so they paint it at their taste, or is this guy just a (very) big Arctic Cat fan?

Actually I think Arctic Cat is one of the big sponsors as every goalie has same kind of green mask :-p

I finally found him, but it took a fair bit of researching :) Gotta say it's a name I didn't know before :oops: It has a nice sound, I think.
