Former Kings goalie Mathieu Garon finds stolen mask for sale on EBay
Kings goalie Mathieu Garon stops a shot from Ducks forward Teemu Selanne during the second period of a game on Dec. 16, 2005.
During goalie Mathieu Garon's two-year stint with the Kings from 2005-2007, one of his customized goalie masks went missing.
It was purple and featured an iron-clad knight on the side. It was a great fit for the Kings' purple jersey scheme until its disappearance.

On Wednesday, Garon finally located the missing mask -- for sale on EBay.
Garon's long-lost facial protector was listed for $2,200.
The seller, seeing Garon's tweet, reached out to apologize, saying he previously bought the mask off EBay and offered to reunite the mask with its former NHL net-minder owner. But Garon was a good sport about it and even offered to sign the mask for the seller.
The listing has since been taken down by the seller.
Garon played in 341 games over a 13-year career, recording a 2.83 goals against average.
