RichMan Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 So Price plays badly, gets injured...changes gear and all should be good again. Damn I wish it was that easy for us lolll Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently they have matching gloves at well, but I didn't see them. Blockers are 300 and catchers are 350 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coopaloop1234 Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 5 hours ago, stackem30 said: Agreed. From what I've read/understand, most goalies don't have tons of interest in providing input on their graphics. I think a lot of them are given mockups of a bunch of different combinations that a designer makes for them, and then the goalie picks the one they like best. Maybe once in a while, someone provides a motif ("something retro") or requests a specific look (home and away pads, like Smith, or Elliot completing his Cujo tribute with the all-blue pads). They might specify that they like a dark-based pad, or that they want a lot of color. But I really doubt they're studying colorways or weighing the value of contrasting colors with a thin white stripe. And that's probably indicative of why they're pros, and we're a bunch of dweebs discussing gear design on an online forum. Not to sound elitist either, but it never hurts to remember that a ton of these guys didn't log a ton of education houyrs, or take art classes, or study design, etc. Most of them are jocks. They've dedicated their whole lives and the majority of their time towards becoming amazing athletes, and most probably don't have the time or inclination to dork out on the aesthetics of the latest stock graphic. Now, not taking college art classes or working a design job certainly doesn't mean they're not intelligent or that they lack taste -- that'd be a ludicrous statement. And I'm certainly not positing that one needs any of that stuff to be creative or possess an eye for design. But I think the majority of them are more concerned with their game and enjoying life, and I'd imagine their interest in designing pads doesn't extend much beyond "Yeah, that one looks cool". Well said. I think we always forget that we can be an anomaly even among beer leaguers. I know tons of goalies that are more than perfectly fine using the same old stuff and never want to change. Or that they really don't care about matching gear in the slightest and will use what they can find for cheap. Also at the same time, there are quite a few highly educated goalies in the show (i.e. Schneider) who don't really have the gear design bug like we do.

TheGoalNet Posted November 21, 2017 Author Share Posted November 21, 2017 Pretty sure #GloveGate is over as Price's set now matches his old glove... Almost looks like a single T in that last pic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ULTIMA Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 Was wondering what my old buddy Huet was wearing this year with Lausanne in the Swiss league. Same as last year - Velocity pads and blocker with Vision glove, Swagger stick and 961 mask. Other goalie is wearing what looks to be a Sportmask Mage and older CCM stuff. I guess they don't have access to hockey shops or maybe gear isn't in the budget as it is here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RichMan Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 That graphic (Todd Scott) seems familiar, like 5-10 years ago or something... I am digging Neimi's graphics. Hadn't seen that one before.Simple lines, works well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, It depends on the goalie. I personally like the simple sets the best. A white base with a pop of colour can look great with a nice graphic in my opinion.
