Camo Pads

An article in the Boston Globe today features a teenage goalie who is looking to patent his pad design he came up with while sitting in chemistry class.

Trevor Leahy's design is essentially camouflaged with the net in hopes of psyching out shooters. It's a neat little idea, but I'm not sold on it. I think most shooters will see the difference unless they're taking a split-second shot and not getting a good look at the net.

I bet it looks cool though. All the Globe gives us is a blocker shot. I'd like to see more.
