PORTRAIT OF A HOCKEY PLAYER GOALIE

——————————

Terry Sawchuk, in above photo, shown before face masks became standard protection for goalies in 1966.

If you have a weird sense of humor like me, you may be thinking… Terry might have sustained his face injuies not on the ice in front of a net, but simply by telling his 6 foot tall, 270 pound wife that she looked “kinda fat in that new dress?” Haha.
