Lectures and/or 'vacations' will be given out to non-compliant individuals. Good advise, taking some of my notes I see lol just kidding!

estogoalie Posted May 20, 2021 Share Posted May 20, 2021 Last season we only got to play from Aug-Oct then they banned contact sports in Switzerland for people over 16 (my 14 year old could train the whole season, but no games). It's been pretty tough with no hockey for me, I've played the last 25 years without missing a season, and I'm 50 so it's half my life. I've taken up jogging and working out at home to compensate, but it's not the same. Actually, I blew my knees out now after running 30k a week for a few months. So now I'm just stuck doing upper body stuff. I really hope they allow us a regular season in Sept. Or at least regular ice trainings. The restrictions/lockdowns are taking mental/physical tolls on people that they fail to show in the COVID curve charts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used the CCM Game On goalie version for a number of months without issue. It was the best of the bunch I tried for sure. Its made of a neoprene-ish material so it doesn't seem to really soak up water. Also touches the bridge of your nose before moving out to the cage so it doesn't fit right over your mouth (if you are of the claustrophobic nature). The only "issue" I ever experienced was that I had to flip my lid up to take a drink. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But my knees and my hips don't hurt anymore. I would struggle to sleep after games for two days due to the intense pain in my knees. I'm not really big into running, I started a little during the lockdown because there was nothing else to do. My 14 year old could still have training 3x per week, so while he was on the ice, instead of sitting in the car and waiting (parents not allowed in the rink anymore), I would go jogging, I'd do about 10k in one hour. 3x per week. But I think my knees weren't ready for that ...and I thought goaltending was rough on the knees... maybe I'll try biking instead.. *edit* My son had some knee issues a few months ago, and the doctor gave him these knee braces. He doesn't need them anymore, so I tried them a few hours today, and WOW, I don't know what voodoo is in there, but my knees felt REALLY good REALLY fast. I'm gonna wear these MF's every day now.

coopaloop1234 Posted May 25, 2021 Share Posted May 25, 2021 3 more weeks (at the earliest) till indoor sports is allowed again in my province. 7 whole months I haven't been able to hit the ice because of this stupid Wuhan virus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TDS-MN Posted May 27, 2021 Share Posted May 27, 2021 With the number of people who have been vaccinated growing to a pretty strong majority here, we have been able to play without a mask if you are vaccinated. I did a couple games as skater and as goalie while using the CCM masks, and both were pretty bearable. But I am glad to put them away now, and hope that we stay on this course now.

SaveByRichter35 Posted May 27, 2021 Share Posted May 27, 2021 Must suck to have to wear a mask to play. Even in this liberal shithole of NY we don't have to wear a mask to play. Just to enter the building and get to the locker room. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJ Boiss Posted May 27, 2021 Share Posted May 27, 2021 Hockey is back in my province June 10th. Not sure what restrictions there will be (if any), but everyone is able to get their first vaccine dose now (some people on their second), so I'm not super concerned on that front.

estogoalie Posted May 27, 2021 Share Posted May 27, 2021 Switzerland is green-lighting indoor sports for adults starting Monday, so looks like we can play roller hockey this summer. But my knees are still too busted up from jogging, so not sure if I can manage it. How's that for irony? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The refs in my league all still wear neck gators and use push button whistles. They leave the gators down during play and put them up for faceoffs, getting pucks from the goalies, and breaking up scrums, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coopaloop1234 Posted May 28, 2021 Share Posted May 28, 2021 Lol push button whistles? One thing this pandemic has shown is the lengths we'll go for safety theater. It's like the constant hand sanitizing and sparing down of surfaces despite extremely low transmission rates from physical objects. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kayen Posted May 28, 2021 Share Posted May 28, 2021 Hockey is coming back to Alberta in a few weeks or so. Pretty excited, and i've been keeping in shape (run 5km everyday, do some HIIT, and lots of callisthenic exercises daily). One big issue is ... I sold my pads a couple of weeks ago, so uhhhhhhh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
