Turns out it's Lacasse who's in the Bauers. She's not listed on their website team roster. Maybe she's a third string? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont worry abt losing coverage or anything bc im a bigger guy, i can lose a little coverage w my gear and not play worse or anything. since going to a smaller c&a and pants (xl pants L c&a to Small both) ive had even more mobility and love it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best part of this is the non-goalie announcers' attempts to describe what has happened, and what parts are implicated: "he should just skate out" The "he should just skate out" comment was so stupid. Is the announcer 110% sure that the rulebook would be on Howard's side if a goal were scored after he'd abandoned his net? I don't know the answer myself, but it's foolish to 'boycott' the continuation of play if you're not absolutely, positively, without-a-doubt certain that any goal would be disallowed. And even then... I think about all the crazy things players have contended with throughout the history of the game. Broken bones, torn muscles, cuts, lost teeth, concussions, etc. There's footage of goalies taking pucks and sticks to the face in the old days... they're clearly hurt/dazed, and they would still try to keep the puck out of the net until the whistle was blown. And don't forget about playing through mental and personal problems, personal tragedies, family deaths, etc. This isn't some "tough it out!!" rant. I'd hope players today would value their well-being enough to sit if they had a concussion or serious injury. Hockey's tough-guy culture — cool as it is to see players come back and take a shift after they've had their dental map rearranged — can go way overboard... ... but I do think there's something noble about doing your duty, putting the team first, playing till the whistle blows, and prioritizing keeping the puck out of the net before all else. Howard should get props for that, and I thought the announcer's suggestion that he should just abandon the net because of a weird/silly inconvenience was indicative of a shitty, me-first attitude. Remember Rask last year, with the skate blade? Ask him how "boycotting the play" went. He handled that so poorly — he focused all his time and energy screaming for a call and miming how he couldn't skate, when he easily could have moved to the center of the net on his knees, and prevented a goal. And guess what? He was wrong — the ref was right not the blow the whistle, and the goal rightfully counted. He put his own frustration and perceived victimization ahead of doing his job, and he looked like a fool. Throwing a temper-tantrum (and his skate blade) didn't help the optics, either. Unless you're injured and your health/safety are at risk, stay in net and do your job. You can always express your dissatisfaction and say what you want to say when the play is dead.

stackem30 Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 Oh don't get me wrong, I *love* a good Rask meltdown — as a Boston transplant (and someone who used to verbally spar with the infamous @CaptainMazda — miss you bb) I feel a healthy amount of Schadendreude when things don't go his way. I am the last guy to flip out or have a meltdown like his, but I ultimately don't care about that stuff. It's super entertaining! But the way he handled that skate-blade thing always bothered me in a different way. I thought it revealed that his priorities were off. If a defenseman allowed an odd-man rush because he was too busy jawing at the ref for a missed call (or losing a glove, whatever) and a goal was scored, I would feel it was entirely fair for people to call them out and say that they had put themselves before their job and their team. Anyway, glad Howard stayed in net and did what he could to stay with the puck. He did his job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BadAngle41 Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 Good view of Rinne's strapping courtesy of ProStockHockey. The first set is lightly used and pretty well standard strapping... while the others have modified P2 with lower calf elastic. I find it particularly interesting bc I'm a big fan of the lower calf strap as well. Side by Side... Standard(ish) and Modified...
