estogoalie Posted May 27, 2019 Share Posted May 27, 2019 Was watching the World Champs, and caught a look at some weirdness in Genoni's trapper that I never noticed before. What is that black chunk? I guess some extra support? Or had his ancient trapper rebuilt? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bunnyman666 Posted May 27, 2019 Share Posted May 27, 2019 Looks like a crude patch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd think a national team goalie could get a bit better than a crude patch, LOL. Wonder if it's even legal? I guess it must be? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

raucebyalien Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 Thought it might be a warm up glove that he's beefed up, but theres plenty of pics of him using it in game on getty images - attached a couple that show it most clearly. Looks like a mold with neoprene on top, must be IIHF approved as it doesn't exceed the perimeter of the glove. I'm guessing he's either got an injured hand or preferred to use an old glove / couldn't get a new one in time for world champs as its old model (he must be the only pro left still using legacy Zero G's!)

P2 blocker. Interesting... That glove will be ready to be lunched after that reinforcement/patch/protection piece added. The one thing with older jenpro that gets sewn like that is that the coating starts to leave the material in flakes. I learnt the hard way that sail thread sewn tightly can make Jenpro ugly in a very quick fashion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
