Emery dons new mask in Raleigh

The Ottawa Senators roll into Raleigh, N.C. tonight to take on the Carolina Hurricanes. No doubt, this could be a prelude to the Eastern Conference Finals in May as both teams, along with New Jersey, are slowly separating themselves from the rest.

Ray Emery will be making his 4th consecutive start for the Sens, and will also be putting his new mask on display. A hardcore boxing fan, Emery's new mask features a painting of 3-time heavyweight champion, Muhammad Ali. In the past, his masks have included other favourites of his: Marvin Hagler, Jack Johnson, and Mike Tyson. But, because Tyson's a lunatic/rapist/ear-chewer, that mask didn't stick around too long.
