The first documentation of a goaltender wearing a mask for protection took place in 1927. As reported in the Montreal Daily Star at the time, Queen's University (Kingston, ON) goaltender Elizabeth Graham (centre, front), "gave the fans a surprise when she stepped into the nets and then donned a fencing mask."
