Going through picture of goalie masks, team by team, I realized that some are just not creative, lightning for Tampa Bay, stars for Dallas, and so on. The Chicago Blackhawks do have the majority of their helmets covered in Native Americans, but are really awesome looking.

First of all lets start in the beginning. Tony Esposito had a very strange looking mask, when he played in Chi-town. Of course he also wore the classic "Jason" style mask without any trace of the glasses mask.
Ed Belfour's, famous "Eddy the Eagle" mask was gone when this picture was taken of him as a rookie. And Micheal Leighton donned a robot like man, while Jocelyn Thibault went the traditional route.
Fast forward to the present, and the Blackhawks have two goalies, both with masks that have followed their careers. Nikolai Khabibulin has had his Bulin Wall/ Eagle paint job for a while, and it continues in the Windy City.
