Jonathan Quick’s Mask Ruled Against by IIHF

Just after posting about Miller’s mask we have also learned that Jonathan Quick also has problems – this time with the “Support our Troops” on his backplate. The International Ice Hockey Federation (IIHF) has ruled that he cannot have this slogan on his mask – as ‘political propaganda and advertisements’ are not permitted by the IOC. A number of readers have also pointed out the USA Hockey logo may e a problem for Quick and Thomas – recall that Team Canada were not permitted to use the Hockey Canada Logo on their jerseys by the International Olympic Committee.
