  1. Passau goalie gloves, senior size with intermediate palms. In really good shape, no smell, glove closes very easily. Glove was rebuilt by Hockey Shop of Horrors as it fell apart internally. Asking $300CAD, located in Calgary. Willing to ship. These were used by my daughter, I can fit my hand in the catcher but not in the blocker, so for sure need smaller hands.
  2. Look what I found this morning...https://passauhockey.com/en/boutique/culotte/culotte-de-gardien-de-but-senior-pro/
  3. He was a weirdo that stood out in a group of weidos. He did stuff to his gear that I would never think of or try, and it seemed like he just had fun with playing, which is what we should all be doing. I don't know if he could stop a puck or not, but it didn't matter, he was one of us. My condolences to his family and friends on their loss. RIP Bunnyman.
  4. This is so true. My car was a 2014 Honda Accord Sport 6 speed sedan I had since new, tons of room, was able to get both daughters goalie bags in the trunk, pads and sticks in the back seat, and lots of room for the 3 of us. Then 2 weeks ago coming back from older kids hockey we got rear ended at a pretty decent speed, car written off. Getting about $16k CDN, which is ok. Kids both have some whiplash injuries, which is not ok, but it could have been much worse if it had been a bigger vehicle that hit us instead of a RAV4. But trying to replace it? Civics are now almost $40k CDN for the new manual one I can find in the area, and I can find one used Accord but it's $35k CDN. Mine was paid off, but guess I have to go back to a car payment. If I didn't want a manual again it would be a bit easier, but not any cheaper. Our plan had ben to get rid of our F150 with the 6.2L since we don't tow anymore, but it's now sticking around for a bit, really don't want 2 payments.
  5. This one hits a little hard. My wife and I have seen them live 3 times, even travelling to Anaheim to see them. But they are also my 2 goalie girls favorite band. With COVID and all the shit that they have missed in their lives the last 2 years, we splurged and got tickets for their tour this year. This was going to be both of their first concert. After we told them we got tickets, my older girl only brought Foo Fighters CD's for her tournament road trip for all the hours of driving. We listen to Everlong all the time, one of our favorite pump up songs on the way to games. I'm not sure if Foo will keep going, I have a Led Zeppelin/John Bonham feeling this will be hard to recover from. RIP Taylor. You've given us lots of good memories.
  6. I stumbled across an ad for one on Kijiji here in Calgary...https://www.kijiji.ca/v-hockey/calgary/ccm-cat-eye-cage/1603029948
  7. Got mine on Saturday, they look pretty good. Not sure when I will get to try them out, my kids hockey schedule from now through to the end of February conflicts with my hockey schedule. I do sometimes gear up for the older ones full ice practices so they have 2 goalies, so maybe in the next couple of weeks I'll at least get to do that to get used to them. Looks like the holder is a good fit. And felt quite a bit lighter.
  8. Awesome, thanks for checking that for me, gives me peace of mind. If I get them Friday I may get to play my regular ice Sunday if my kids team wins Saturday.
  9. Still in progress, hoping to have them late this week. However, it may not matter when I get them this month- I only play Sunday nights, and my girls hockey is at the same time as my ice all month, and probably part of February too. Glad the 266 sounded right to you, I held the blades I got up to the Graf blades in the cowling and they were about the same length, so figured it should be good.
  10. I had bought them online, so I just went by the CCM sizing when I ordered, it turned into a bit of a last minute thing. I had reached out to a retailer to see if they had any insight on sizing but no response, my guess is because no one around here seems to carry Graf they didn't want to answer that question.
  11. I currently have my 9035's and holders in with the skate guy to put them together, but I'm a little nervous on the holder size. I'm in an 8.5 Graf, and sizing said it should be a 266 holder. Skate guy thought it looked small, guess we'll see. He also has a lot of staff out with COVID, so hoping they are done for my next ice on the 9th, otherwise stuck with my old Bauer One80's for a bit.
  12. I would think they are more butterfly. I ordered them softer in the boot and a little softer in the knee to hopefully make them closer to my Vaughns, but they have way less torsional flex than the Vaughns.
  13. I had a 2006 with this box, it was the only length available at the time. It worked well enough for most things, with a cap on the back you could carry quite a bit. The long box looks better in my opinion. Loved the 6 speed manual it had, but the fuel economy wasn't much better than the 3/4 ton Chev we bought after it with a 6L V8, and the turning radius on these things is brutal. Towing a 24' trailer with that short wheelbase was...interesting.
