This album honours six of the influential Canadian-born goalies who helped change the way the position is played, rewriting the NHL record book along the way.

The album comes with a numbered certificate of authenticity and contains a 48-page book written in collaboration with the Hockey Hall of Fame, as well as career details of the six great Canadian goalies featured in this year's stamp release, including their contributions to the NHL and the Stanley Cup-winning teams they played for.

In addition, there's a commemorative pane of stamps of each of the six goalies, and special souvenir sheets for all six. The set also includes a silver-plated plaque of the Vezina Trophy, the historic award given annually to the NHL's best goalie, as well as medallions honouring three other NHL awards; the William M. Jennings Trophy for the goaltender who allows the fewest goals, the Jack Adams Award for coach of the year, and the General Manager of the Year award.

Finally, there's a bonus VIP box to house all five albums in the series. Albums from other years are not included.
