Coyotes Goaltender Jason LaBarbera Honors Pat Tillman With New Mask
His newest mask, courtesy of designer David Arrigo, will pay homage to a real-life hero...Pat Tillman.
I wanted to make sure that all troops knew how much we respect and appreciate their sacrifices to protect our way of life,” LaBarbera said. “Pat’s story is well-known around the country and the world, but it’s so important here in Arizona were the people see him as their own. He is a part of Arizona sports history and our nation’s history and I wanted to show that.

LaBarbera will donate $420 for every win he records to The Pat Tillman Foundation. The $420 represents No. 42, Tillman's NFL jersey number when he played for the Arizona State Sun Devils.
