from Arpon Basu of NHL.com.

Jonathan Bernier stepped on the ice at the Montreal Canadiens' practice facility Tuesday wearing enemy colors, and he couldn't have been happier.

Bernier was one of four NHL goaltenders taking part in the CCM/Reebok Goalie Summit, a gathering that allows them to try on their new pads and shoot some promotional material for the company that gears them up to face NHL shooters.

For Bernier, it was the first time he pulled on the famed blue and white of his new team, the Toronto Maple Leafs, and he was smiling from ear to ear at the sight of himself.

"It's my first time wearing this jersey," he told NHL.com before heading off for a photo shoot. "It looks pretty good."

continued with notes on MA Fleury, JS Giguere and Corey Crawford...
