I remember a lot of the earlier stuff having a very washed out look to them like the Anderson ones above. Even these black ones from The Hockey Shop were very washed out in person. They've definitely improved on fine tuning their saturation on the pads. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

keeperton 106 Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 If Vaughn really did manage to thin out the SLR series that much, they're going to be fantastic. I loved when I demo'd them, but they were just a bit too bulky feeling overall. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I loved when I demo'd them, but they were just a bit too bulky feeling overall. I doubt Vaughn will ever thin out their pads. They seem to be resisting the change. Speaking of thinning out, no one has yet matched what Brian's and JRZ put out. I'm guessing it's not popular enough. With the new game and techniques being used, a thick thigh rise seems almost obsolete, right? Personal preference I say. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The picture above is literally a thinner looking profile on an SLR style pad though. I remain hopeful. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

HamelinGraphix 25 Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 Ok, I'm pretty sure we can say that Price is going Roy tribute this year. I'm pretty sure it's not Garon and Hackett inspired now that we have two setup for this season. 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

A.YOUNGoalie13 139 Posted March 11 Author Share Posted March 11 I know we have the one picture from blackwood, but has their been a single peep about an SLR 3 or anything from vaughn? This would also be the year of the 3rd PVE generation on goalie monkey if they are continuing that. Also no word from brians for a gnetik 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

That's not Quick. https://www.nhl.com/news/los-angeles-ducks-anaheim-ducks-game-recap/c-321368976 I can see where the confusion comes from though, it seems like every goalie in LA's system wears all Vaughn.
