Cooperalls? Oh, man! I remember them trying to push those on the amatuer ranks, but I didn't recall them making it to the NHL ... found a picture though ... they did look kind of good, in a 'rollerblade' hockey kind-of-way, but I can see how a goalie would have a problem playing in them ... I preferred socks & shin guards to those.
