This is a joke right?

In case it isnt, Cooper and CCM made lots of different helmets, so without knowing exactly which model # you are looking for, this thread is a waste of time.
If you cant get a model #, post a pic, or even name a player who wore it for a long period of time.

Someone short a few bolts??

Cooper is not produced anymore as it was bought out. Bauer/Nike bought out cooper

CCM is a different company

Sorry no Cooper!!!

But you can still get CCM and most chain stores for pretty good prices. Try CTC or Walmart I think they have base models that start at like 49.99.

thanks, i'll try to look at those places...
as a woman, i'm not really a hockey sports fan, so i don't know much...
my little nephew from overseas wanted me to look for a cooper helmet....and i searched around some stores, some websites and decided to post it here in the forums, hoping some people could help out...
thanks again for that info though

There's an old Cooper helmet that is still popular with goalies even though its of course fairly rare...its the SK-2000, and was seen on goalies like Chris Osgood, and players like Messier years ago. Very strong helmet for frontal impact, I know of a few players still using them today, but they would only be available on ebay, as someone mentioned, Cooper Hockey was absorbed many years ago. A couple of Jofa models were also extremely strong but are now so rare its not worth even trying.
Maybe this is why your nephew wants a Cooper in particular?
Otherwise there are great helmets by Nike and Mission, among others.

lol, the 2000 Messier used to wear used to be made by Winn Well, I guess Cooper must've bought them out and took the style.

I thought I read somewhere that Messier bought the last 200-300 of these helmets since they were the only ones he liked.

Could be, on a similar note, Arturs Irbe will send anyone who gives him one of the Jofa helmets he likes (in good condition) an autographed copy of his book (?)...some players just cant seem to move on.

:cheesygri Here's to fresh new headgear!

That's cool. I have a black Cooper SK2000 with a half visor sitting around. Maybe I should sell it on eBay. Now's the time since a lot of people are starting up their beer leagues for the new hockey season.
