GoalieGuy101 Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 Any idea what kind of knee pads he uses? Looks like they are attached to pads Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coopaloop1234 Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 Standard Thigh Wraps that come with most velocity pads. Here's a picture of the XR + XF Vaughns that show the different ones between the two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waldo Posted September 19, 2017 Share Posted September 19, 2017 They are actually pretty different from stock. They are longer so they stay in the pant better and the majority of it is one piece, they also don't wrap around the leg as much. Neime has been using them since Chicago and his tps pads. A couple of goalie in the sharks organization switch or tried them at one point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MTH Posted September 19, 2017 Share Posted September 19, 2017 Thigh boards were nice. But with today's pads, I don't think they'd be as vital. I mean, when this was a good butterfly: They were great. But now? Not much need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thigh boards were the best solution, it's a shame the NHL banned them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MTH Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 I lost it at 'fun sized'... ha ha I can wear thigh boards if I want. But I don't. I had them. I think I fought them so much I just removed them and never really missed them. The one thing that stinks is that they are attached to the pads and rotate with the pads. Knee pads obviously don't rotate as they are on legs. Besides, if my thigh boards are exposed - my butterfly is too narrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WillyGrips13 Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 When you use "fun size" and "inseam" in the same sentence, the subject usually is headed somewhere else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MTH Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 It's Kevin Weekes on the Canes. Try this: Not picking on Weekes. He's one of my favorites. I just recall his substantial thigh boards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
