@Peanutbutterfly btw, that Indy Fab!!!!!!! SWEET RIDE! 

Thanks! It's a classic. Bought it way back in 1997. Had it resprayed to its current color about 12 years ago because it was pretty beat up. In retrospect I think the original paint was better. I only wish it had disc brake tabs and maybe some better tire clearance.  Been trying to decide if I should convert it back to gears.

I still need to play through the 2nd season... way better than the actual show lol.

Definitely. Second season is really good, third season is OK (definitely the worst of the four though, very skippable).

I'm hardstuck between a TWD/Clementine theme for my next mask, or Shadowrun/Glory

Shadowrun is a cyberpunk/urban fantasy TTRPG designed/produced by Jordan Weisman/FASA (their other big property is BattleTech/MechWarrior). He co-founded game developer Harebrained Schemes with Mitch Gitelman, and made three isometric tactical/turn-based Shadowrun RPGs (Returns, Dragonfall, and Hong Kong). Glory is a party-member from Dragonfall (which is an absolutely phenomenal game, and Glory is a phenomenal character. Her personal quest is probably the strongest story across all three games).

Uh... yeah... anyone looking for some video games to play right now, Harebrained Schemes has some good shit. Shadowrun Returns, SR: Dragonfall, SR: Hong Kong, and their latest game BATTLETECH, are all golden tactical/turn-based games.

Painting a goalie (Hextall in oil). Almost done. Nordique’s logo needs to be finished.

Painting goalie pads with acrylic paint using the Cooper Goalie’s method on YouTube. Just awaiting the silicone water-guard to be delivered for the sealing step in the process.

Also did a once over with a heat gun on my bucky Salvi pads to melt the Snoseal that I put on last time. It was still a bit sticky. And now I’m gonna leave them out for display.

The basement has turned into a play room. The old Wii is down here, too😄.

Finished the CuJo biography, which I quite enjoyed as he played at a time when I knew the NHL players better than any time before or since. My wife said she’s never seen me read a book so quickly before!

Just started it on Tuesday. Hoping it comes close to The Crazy Game by Clint Malarkchuck

I’d be interested in the Clint Malarchuk book one day - but his wasn’t in the bargain books section when my wife was last at Chapters 😋.

I’ve also got these to start:

Clint's book sure made me appreciate how actually nuts the guy is. 

Clint was the only one who tried to get to Tortorella when he stormed Calgary's dressing room in 2014. That would have made that whole situation even more popcorn worthy.

Heh, I donned the glove and blocker, grabbed my backup stick and had the kid take some shots at me in the driveway with the tennis ball.  I really miss suiting up in all the gear, but I wasn't going to take it that far just for that little exercise.  Glove hand reaction is still there, at least.  Did notice that my blocker could use a little re-furb work, I may have to hit my local repair guy up after the 'lockdown' restrictions are loosened, see about a replacement glove palm maybe.  Still look at my recently refurbished helmet and new cage, and dream about the days I get to get back on the ice with that.

I just bought an old Heaton Helite 5 Garth Snow stick (thanks for the tip, @coopaloop1234). I think that's about as close as I'm going to come to finding a Brodeur Helite III, which has been my 'dream find' since I first got into goalie gear circa 1996.

Oddly enough one of my team's D had one of these kicking around his basement and gave it to me as a joke. Is this what you're looking for?

I've been busy doing Swedish death cleaning, if CoronaVirus gets me, at least my family won't have to sort thru all my crap, LOL, just kidding, my storage-room/man-cave needed to get cleaned-up anyway. Taking longer than I thought, but it's ok, as time doesn't seem to be a problem right now. Got plenty of other side-projects to do as well (like building some guitar amps). I'm good for another few months... A guy I work with who was in the Navy used to do submarine tours without seeing daylight for 70 days, so he's holding up very well with the 30 day home "lock-down" LOL

But I'm glad Corona came right at the end of my  hockey season. Hope it goes by Aug/Sept so it doesn't interfere with next season. No team summer-training this year, so having to motivate myself to workout alone is a little challenging sometimes. Well, my 18 year old son works out daily, so he motivates me a little...watching him work out makes me feel like I should at least do a few pushups and lunges so I'm not feeling like a total lump of crap, LOL
