Check out Steve Valiquette's anniversary mask created by David

New York Rangers
For the goalie mask anniversary game in Madison Square Garden on November the 1st New York Rangers wanted an anniversary mask also for Steve Valiquette. David Gunnarsson was honored to get the assignment and picked up the airbrush gun with big excitement.

The New York Rangers team gave David a brief description of how they wanted the design. They wanted it similar to Henrik Lundqvist's anniversary mask but not the same. Henrik's mask is besides the tribute to the original Plante mask also a tribute to Davidson's classic Rangers mask, but on Steve's mask they wanted a tribute to Richter's classic mask instead. David formed a complete design concept for this anniversary mask based on the wishes from the Rangers team, a design that goes perfect together with Lundqvist's.
