A number of Moose players chose to wear neck guards last season after an incident in the NHL created a need.
Today the AHL mandated it for all players and officials.
From the AHL:
American Hockey League President and CEO Scott Howson announced today that the AHL’s Board of Governors has unanimously approved the mandatory use of cut-resistant neck protection by all of its players and on-ice officials, beginning with the upcoming 2024-25 season.
All AHL skaters, referees and linespersons, regardless of age or experience, will be required to wear approved cut-resistant neck protection beginning this fall. Cut-resistant socks and wrist sleeves were previously mandated for AHL players and officials beginning with the 2023-24 season.
