Hockey Cage Pros
No Fogging Up or Scratching – Often considered the best available face protection, hockey cages remain a popular option because, unlike visors, they won’t scratch or fog up.
Stylish Cages – Cages come in several colors, enabling players to color-coordinate them with their uniforms. White remains one of the most popular colors because skaters tend to believe a white cage makes it easier for them to locate the black puck.
Hockey Cage Cons
One Cage Design Does Not Fit All – Some hockey cages are not as versatile as other forms of face protection because not all cages are compatible with all helmet brands.
Cages Can Be Cumbersome – While the protection is undeniable, some skaters have trouble seeing the puck clearly through the bars, and others find hockey cages heavy and cumbersome.
Cages Are Not That Comfortable – Some skaters don’t feel comfortable wearing a hockey cage, and others have difficulty snapping them into place while wearing hockey gloves.
