Face masks
Anyone remember what year full face masks became mandatory for MN high school hockey?
Re: Face masks
Trying to find an answer. NCAA implemented the full cage rule in 1978. https://www.ncaa.org/news/2012/6/8/ice- ... ields.aspx
Based on researching vintage photos over at Vintage Minnesota Hockey, MSHSL players started wearing the full mask in the 1978 state tourney, so my guess would be 1977-78 season was the first year.

I found a pic of Grand Rapids from 1974 and they didn’t have the masks.
