Especially with the kids who need four or five different helmets for the different sports they may participate in. The hockey helmets already look similar to bike helmets to begin with.
Next Rant... Multi Sport shoes... Ha... They would never let this happen...
I'd think the face cage is very likely to get snagged on a fall and cause you to break your neck.
