Hockey Halloween: The best costumes from around the NHL

Sophia Jurksztowicz wants to know which NHL player had the best costume for Halloween and how Alex Ovechkin is chasing history in Florida.

We’ve seen some great NHL-inspired Halloween costume ideas… but what are hockey players themselves dressing as this year?

This October has featured some creative costumes — from Disney characters to superheros and more.

Here are some of our favourite costumes from around the league:

Injured Edmonton Oilers forward Jordan Eberle has a little fun at Calgary Flames defenceman Mark Giordano’s expense…

A few members of the Flames had some fun of their own. The super heroes visited the Alberta Children’s Hospital.

The Ottawa Senators had some creative costumes… but perhaps not as clever as Shane Prince’s. The rookie dressed as veteran teammate Chris Neil:

Paul Stastny’s clever pun, complete with adorable packets of hot sauce.
