Hello folks! It's Wednesday January 13th, and you know what that means. Actually I don't know what that means. Does it mean anything? Anyways, let's move on...

So I was watching the World Junior's the other day, Finland was on, and something caught my eye about their goalie Veini Vehvilainen. He was wearing bright red goalie pads, and for some reason I loved them. Normally I'd hate non-matching pads, but in this case I thought they looked awesome. I think part of the reason I liked them is that Finland's Olympic jerseys had some red (and other past jerseys have as well), so it's a colour with some ties to Finland. Another reason might be that most goalies wear white gear nowadays, so any gear that isn't white is a refreshing change (it's noteworthy that these pads weren't a design choice on his part, just his pads from his regular team).
What do you think about his red pads? Am I crazy or did they actually look good? Let me know in the comments.
