At inside of this protective element surely there is the laying softening the shot power. A lot of things depend also on age of the player: for example, for juniors (that is not reached 18 years) helmets with the so-called visor which is made of metal are provided. Those athletes who reached 18 summer age can play already with the usual plastic visor.
