My most recent experience with that ended with shots on goalie 56-14 and a 6-1 score with me laying on the floor of the locker room struggling to breathe. Not fun.

I’m not trying to be Brett Favre but I’m starting to feel like the world is saying F it go for it. Depends, are you sending pics of your junk to people? Playing some touch football in your Wranglers and copper fit geear? If not, then you ain't Brett. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I joined a new team when the league started back up in our area, and the team now has its first two wins in two and a half seasons. Feels pretty good - last one was a 3-1 win where we were outshot 31-18 (officially, but the scorekeeper misses at least 25% of the shots on each side looking at their phone the whole game).

Started in net at 40 and now turning 50 and my knees are just too banged up to play. So it's not always the team's fault. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scythe Posted March 25, 2021 Share Posted March 25, 2021 There are 5 rinks here. 3 offer pick up game sessions. 1 of the three stopped the skates while the other 2 kept them going. So basically i never stopped playing throughout this pandemic. 1 of the rinks now doesn't even care if you wear a paper mask or not. Is anyone here undecided about getting the shot?

seagoal Posted March 29, 2021 Share Posted March 29, 2021 (edited) Well I'm finally cracking in my no-playing-hockey-with-a-face-mask rebellion. My normal Tuesday pick-up game has been running for a couple of weeks now and they've had 2 goalies without me. Tomorrow there are down 1 goalie and in light of this being a good time for me between tattoo sessions, I am going to give it a go. I picked up one of the CCM goalie face masks. It's a pretty clever design (although it looks like a crotch pastie for ladies). I like how it does not cover the mouth and stays in place just on the nose, but, I do not like how it blocks downward vision. I imagine down on the ice trying to cover or gather a puck with my gloves and doing it blindly if the puck is close enough to me. Or, being on my skates and having a puck below me at my skates and struggling to see it when looking down. So, for now I found a way to reduce the vision blocking and pull it down a bit with some skate laces. It still stays on tip of my nose but is pulled down away from my eyes and the top of my nose, which was my goal. We shall see how it goes.

He's looking straight through the mouth part on the side view, but it looks like it fits differently in the head on view. Good Catch.

chile57 Posted March 29, 2021 Share Posted March 29, 2021 Glad you're going to give it a go. Hopefully you'll find that the "Game On" mask isn't the absolute worst possible thing in the whole wide world once you're on the ice. Good luck.

I definitely won't think that, only that it's unnecessary and practically speaking, annoying. I'm not a mask flipper upper at all and having to flip up to drink water will be annoying. I like to spray my face with water too and won't be doing that. So basically water related annoyance will be the issue.
