Jaroslav Halak introduces slick new Canucks pad design

Love him or hate him, you can't say that NHL veteran goaltender Jaroslav Halak doesn't have style. 

Known for inserting custom graphics onto his equipment that have included the likes of "tear" graphics and bear claw rips, Halak has introduced his latest gear setup that he'll be donning when he hits the ice this fall with his new team, the Vancouver Canucks. 

A long-time client of Brian's Custom Sports, the design is a clean-cut, simple and yet aesthetic look: 

Halak was originally selected with the 271st overall pick by the Montreal Canadiens in the ninth and final round of the 2003 NHL Entry Draft, and it wasn't long before he became a folk hero in Montreal thanks to his stellar performance in the 2010 Stanley Cup Playoffs that including stunning the President's Trophy winning Washington Capitals in Round 1. 

He then took his talents to the St. Louis Blues, and has also seen time with the Washington Capitals, New York Islanders, and Boston Bruins. Halak, who sports a career record of 281-173-62 with a 2.48 goals against average, will provide veteran mentorship for young Thatcher Demko in the Canucks crease.
