Eric McErlain at AOL Fanhouse put this latest NHL promotional spot up on YouTube today, asking the trivia question: “Can you name all the goalies featured in the video?”
Unfortunately, I can’t, not all of them—someone else take a shot.
The photo below is a flashback to last year’s Halloween day episode of Pardon the Interruption, which featured Michael Wilbon dressed in a couple NHL jerseys—something that qualifies as scary on ESPN. 
Update 12:38pm ET: The Habs ask their players about their best Halloween memories—
Tom Kostopoulos: “My best costumes were Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. I wore a different one from that show three years in a row. First, I was Raphael, then Donatello and then Shredder. It was great!”
Mike Komisarek: “When I was a kid, my best costume was when I was dressed up as a hockey player. At least, that’s the only one I can share…for a bunch of reasons.”
More at the Montreal Canadiens site.
Update 1:39pm ET: And from the LA Kings, favorite costumes—
Dustin Brown: Anze Kopitar. A couple years ago I was the Big Bad Wolf which was pretty good.
Anze Kopitar: I bought a Brown jersey so that’s what I am going to be.
Update 1:52pm ET: More team mentions of Halloween and related events from the Devils, the Bruins, the Blues, the Sabres... etc. The NHL site also has a feature up on horror-themed hockey masks. And over at Going Five Hole Sean Leahy has some costume suggestions for NHL players.
Last but not least, go here if you feel like taking a light quiz.
Update 2:07pm ET: Reminded by Lady Stanley in the comments, I’d be remiss not pointing to the S.J. Sharkie video we posted yesterday.
Update 3:13 pm ET: Not exactly hockey related, but when Bruce Springsteen releases a spooky new tune on Halloween called “A Night With the Jersey Devil” we gotta include it, right? Check it out.
