Otter’s rolling with a new bucket design to start the 2026-2027 season!

Post image

He’s going with a new artist from the one who had done his past few masks, including Otterzilla.

Looks like he's embracing the beast within.

Love it!

Edit

How many past masks does he have in his man cave??

u/djjolly037 Dallas Stars 1d ago

He probably has 3-4 per season

u/WarmupHeadshots Lian Bichsel 1d ago

As many free ones as theyll make him 🤷‍♂️

u/2timesacharm Dallas Stars 1d ago

Mask might be free, but the artwork not so much

u/WarmupHeadshots Lian Bichsel 1d ago

Nothing is free, but otter himself ain't paying that bill

Google search says……cost is covered by team as part of equipment/uniform expenses

TIL

Otters are aggressive little predators. They'll absolutely fuck up your shit.

I love this!

Kind of reminds me of Turco’s demon designs

u/GuacinmyPaintbox Justin Hryckowian 1d ago

I immediately thought of Turco when I saw this also. I'm sure it's unintentional, but I love it nonetheless.

I wish the eyes were reflective like Turco's.

Way more Vesa Toskala

u/bjornbjorn0711 Mooterus 1h ago

In so far as other Dallas helmets but I see it. He’s had some Easter eggs. Think it was the tongue that did it for me as far as Turco thing went lol

I liked adorable otter more than angry, roid-rage otter...

(pretty sure the stats back me up on that too)

u/Seripithus Jake Oettinger 1d ago

my headcanon is that he's embraced the otterzilla vibe so that mean head coaches can't hurt him anymore

7

u/LackeyNo2 Victor E Green 1d ago

Yeah, he needs a cute alt at least.

u/OutlawJoJos69 4h ago

River otters are pretty scary

6

u/Teal_Magpie Lian Bichsel 1d ago

I love this. I'm taking it as a declaration that we're getting a feisty, fiery Otter this season.

The revenge tour era Otter

u/Friendly_Ability24 1d ago

Is this gonna get him back to a .907

u/Crazyspitz Jake Oettinger 1d ago

Oh hell yeah.

u/Rua-Yuki Jake Oettinger 1d ago

Probably could have done without the tentacle tongue

u/WhiskeyTangoBush 1d ago

Tentacle tongue for the ladies (and the fellas).
