One timer that went five hole where I wasn't fully square, nor did I have my legs fully together. You can see the puck mark is completely horizontal and perpendicular to my thigh. I definitely though it went through, but I'm pretty sure my pants caught the puck somehow. Here's a crappy Livebarn vid of the play.

MTH Posted October 11, 2023 Share Posted October 11, 2023 Crappy would be an improvement. Nothing stinks more than getting hit in a bad spot and the puck still goes in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichMan Posted November 5, 2023 Share Posted November 5, 2023 Not a contusion per say but, I did feel an intense sting and then burning feeling to my right ear after the shot. Ear felt really warm and kinda swollen at the lobe the following hours. I think it's time for a new mask, given that Reidic foam replacement is non existing anymore and given the type of material of which the mask is made of, not just any type of foam will do. My mask served me well the past decade. Thank you Reidic 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
motowngoalie Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 Anyone else ever take a shot to the outer elbow? I caught a hard wrister there this morning, kind of disappointed in the elbow cup protection on my warrior c/a, but poor technique played a role also so it's my own damn fault. Pass across the hash marks to a shot just inside the far post. I was a little behind, so I chicken winged it and caught it flush on my right elbow. Immediate dead arm and I dropped my stick, couldn't finish the game from the pain. Anyways, 3 ibuprofen later and it's swelling up, but I have full range of motion again and it doesn't hurt that badly now. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MTH Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 Terrible. Outer elbow? Jesus no meat there either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
creasecollector Posted February 10 Share Posted February 10 (edited) Not the outer, but I had a shot to the inner elbow once during varsity tryouts years ago. Not a fun time... Edited February 10 by creasecollector Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MTH Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 My son is a D man. His freshman tryouts for varsity HS hockey he took a puck off his ear plate of his helmet. Split his ear still, had to get stitched up at 11 pm at local hospital. But he made the team. Worth it? Sure. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the light side note - it looks he didn´t have Passmore blocker, otherwise every puck would boom to the corner! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

indykrap Posted February 22 Share Posted February 22 Nice inside arm one that I caught on a 3 on 1 (stopped it, at least?). I’ve beefed up my RGT2 Sr around there but it may be time to consider an upgrade. Some of the guys at this skate can really shoot. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
