Just a couple days after Mike Condon came out with his Winter Classic mask that had Bill Belichick and the Lombardi Trophies on the back (as well as the words "Do Your Job"), Tuukka has come out with his own Patriots-themed goalie mask. Not to be outdone by Condon, Rask has a number of Patriots players on there, such as Tom Brady, Rob Gronkowski, and Stephen Gostkowski. Condon is a Holliston, Ma native, but I don't think Tuukka was going to let the Canadiens come into Gillette and out-Patriot the Bruins in that department.
The Winter Classic will be held at Gillette, with the festivities starting at 1:00 PM EST. While the Canadiens are trending downwards (having lost 9 out of their last 10), the Bruins are on the rise. A win against the Canadiens will put the B's squarely atop the Atlantic Division. That would be a strong showing for the Bruins, who started off quite slowly while the Canadiens started off on absolute fire. Of course, that means little to nothing in the Winter Classic, as they are playing in outdoor conditions in front of 70,000 people. Not your typical game, but it should be fun to see such a fast and exciting sport playing on Gillette Field on New Years Day.
