Which Neck Guard Does Price and Andersen Use?

[Simscityy]

Does anyone know what Neck Guard brand Carey Price and Fredrik Andersen wear? Really want a neck guard like theirs without a giant logo on it. But I have a feeling NHL league rules don't allow logos on goalie neck guards.

Sorry - couldn't find a good picture of Andersen.

Looks like a Vaughn to me... and likely has branding but is color matched to the neck guard. I could be wrong on both accounts, but typically when a guy has a contract with a manufacturer if they do wear something outside of the brand the logo has to be "ghosted."

Could be any number of brands. I had both a Bauer and a Brian's that look exactly like that. 

[Simscityy]

I agree with you. I think it's a Bauer but it's difficult to know exactly.

Price is 100% in Vaughn. I posted about this on IG last spring. I don't know if it has no clear logos because of a CCM endorsement or NHL licensing. 

I don't know for Anderson 

If you want a unit with no logo, @Beccaraptor or Factory Mad both make nice units. I am sure Brian's or Passau would also make you a custom order with no logo. I wear a PAW and it has no logo per my request.

Betcha it's this. I don't think the licensing fees for a logo on a neckguard or two is worth it. Pads/Gloves/Sticks and to an extent helmets are better candidates as they're bigger, more noticeable pieces of equipment. 

I feel like neck guard licensing fees are in the same ball park as jocks.

I have posted Flower's Itech neck guard many times on IG. You can see that someone tried to sharpie over it. I assumed that was because Itech is defunct, but maybe everyone bailed on neck guard licensing and it's been like that since Itech existed.

I really doubt it's because of licensing fees.

Tuuka's wearing a Vaughn neckguard and the branding is there.

Factory will not have a logo by default. I own two- a black, no graphic and a royal blue with Union Jacks and “Demonic Rabbit” embroidered; but getting an embroidered graphic cost more (and was worth every penny). The Factory has removable bits to make whatever contacts you washable.  

Some brands will charge you for no logo, FYI.

@Simscityy - Do you care more about the no logo or the neck guard itself? 

[Simscityy]

The neck guard itself...the no logo would be a bonus.

[TheGoalNet]

@Simscityy   Here is PAW - Many styles to choose from and no logos upon request. You could also custom order the Brian's above with No logos 

[Simscityy]

this is excellent. Thank you.

Hey, I have 2 of these neck guards. They are Vaughn VPC 8000, the non-certified pro version.  Vaughn never sold the non logo version, only pros have access to those. The VPC line is discontinued but you can buy the updated version of the non-certified neck guard here http://goal.thehockeyshop.com/vaughn-velocity-v7-pro-xf-senior-goalie-neck-guard.html

Guys like Price, Neuvirth and Anderson still use the VPC model.

Price is 1000% in Vaughn. I saw a pic the other day and I forgot to save, sorry

Andersen's looks super similar to the PAW version.  Notice that all the Vaughn/Bauer neck guards strap to the right side of the neck, but Andersen's straps on the left side (maybe both) and uses Jenpro tabs.  I'm sure he could easily have had Vaughn make a custom one that has the removable elastic (velcro on both ends), but if you're looking to get one for yourself it looks like PAW would be the easiest approximation.

I'm considering this, haven't used a neck guard since I was about 18 (dangler only) mainly because they all seem to press against the sides of my neck and give me a light headed sensation.  So a loose one with a longer elastic seems like the perfect style.

Yeah, Price definitely wears the Vaughn one:

[ruckus007]

Price, Rask, Lundqvist wear Vaughn neck guards.

Dubnyk wears the old RBK bib. 

That's all I've seen.

Looks like there's a mod to pull it forward, keeping off his Adam's apple. That's always the biggest problem I have with those.

If you want it away from your Adams apple, tie it into your chesty
