It’s Halloween folks, and you know what that means: Unsubstantiated news reports about kids being given candy with poison, knives, razor blades, or the new hot danger weed in them. It’s also time for our favourite hockey players to dress up in costumes that are either completely awful or incredibly expensive.
With that, let us take a stroll down Halloween costume lane and see what players were able to do this year and years past.
First of all, we must start with our own Carlton the Bear dressed up as Harry Potter - or, if you take away the scar, Kyle Dubas.

Frederik Gauthier went back in time for his outfit, but really, it’s probably something he’ll wear too a game soon enough.
