I expect rule changes moving forward.
Never understood people’s unwillingness when it came to wearing a neck guard.
Always would wear one one as a skater, wished they were bigger to cover my long neck. Never would be bothered by them during play.
I did not wear them, when given the choice, as a goalie since I had a neck protector piece on the chest protector that the two would cause issues, and also the big plastic deflector piece that hangs off the helmet.
