The Ice-O-Topes claim to be the original hockey pin-up calendar gals.

For the last three years, the Vancouver-based women's ice hockey team has been raising money for both their practice time and local charities by way of a very popular annual calendar, featuring the members of the team wearing little in the way of equipment. Here's a gallery of last year's photos.

But after three years of standard pin-up shots, the Ice-O-Topes opted for a new challenge: recreating hockey's classic images.

Of course, despite the new approach, they didn't stray too far from what makes the calendar popular. (Hint: it's not the font choices.)
