Several weeks ago, readers were invited to submit a photo which they felt best illustrated the spirit of hockey coming into a new season, and now we have a winner: KK member “The Freak” will be receiving a new, $169 pair of Easton Hockey Stealth S11 hockey gloves for his great entry.
We also decided to give out an unplanned second prize to “Jdunc”. His submission titled “Game Face” was taken while dressed up to watch a hockey game at home on the couch, so we’ve thrown in a $25 gift certificate just for fun, to Ice Jerseys.com.
Both winners will be contacted next week, and you can see their submissions below. Our thanks to Easton Hockey for the prize, and we’ll look forward to another contest in a couple weeks.
And of course, thanks to everyone who participated!
Winner!

Nice to see you’re not wearing skates on the carpet. 
Those are both pretty darn cool.

What’s really funny is that in the original photo, both Pronger and Holmstrom are using Warrior Dolomite sticks, but “The Freak” blacked out Pronger’s stick, and Holmstrom’s stick is at just an angle to make it difficult to see the logos. Was using Easton-brand equipment a part of the contest or did “The Freak” just do it to help his cause?

Muero, The Freak did not black out anything.
In order for us to avoid any branding or copyright problems, we touched up a photo, after it was selected as the winner.
Holmstrom’s stick was not touched.
