Maxime Lagacé joined the Boston Bruins on a one-year, two-way $700,000 deal this past offseason and he’s most likely going to be the starting goalie for the AHL’s Providence Bruins this season since their NHL duo consists of Tuukka Rask and Jaroslav Halak.

However, anything is possible and there’s still a chance that Lagacé gets some action at the highest level this season and the 26-year-old is ready for the call when/if it comes. On Friday night, David Gunnarsson revealed Lagacé’s first Bruins-themed mask and it’s an incredible tribute to former Bruins netminder Andy Moog.

It was very exciting to paint this Bruins mask for my friend Max Lagace🐻. The design is an homage to Andy Moog’s classic Bruins mask with a yellow bear🙏🏻🎨. This design is painted with some subtle 3-D FX✨, but still very old school with visible brush strokes🖌 and vintage details. Thank you Max😊🙏🏻! @maxlagace @nhlbruins #DaveArt @nhl #DaveArtFamily #nhl #DaveArtTheCradleOfCreativity @theahl @ahlbruins
