Guys almost never buy the full-right stuff, and there were three or four sets there a few years ago. WHERE DOES ONE FIND THIS SALE?!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they don't, I can go to the next one and see if they still got them, if you want; ship em to you myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flames equipment sale is normally held on June 8th, from 8-10am at the Saddledome. Obviously didn't happen last year, remains to be seen what they do this year.

Does anyone one have any insider info about the CCM Eflex line up for all their upcoming 2021 gear? Chesty, pants, accessories, etc.? Perhaps a catalogue sneek peek? New sticks coming - they look cool. New Eflex 5 chesty, discontinuing the Shield name, but it's basically a Shield 3. There will be one line of pants going forward, just like Bauer is doing.

I've got to be honest, I've always wondered why companies spent the R&D dollars and energy to have 2 lines of pants. It's the one item almost no goalie who comes into our store is brand loyal on. Generally speaking the conversation is either about price or fit. We very rarely have someone coming in to buy model X from brand Y unless they've hit a growth spurt and are trying to replace something they bought in the last year or two. Even if CCM loses a few sales to Vaughn or Brian's for people looking for a specific style it seems like they'll still come out ahead financially on this move.

I think it’s so they can offer different options. Obviously soft vs stiff for pads, two glove closures, a stiff and soft skate the flex in different directions. That stuff makes sense. However the two pant lines, two knee pads, two chesties, that’s odd to me. Unless the chest protectors are that different just make one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keeperton Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 Tinkered with the customizer a bit and I wish there was more that could be done with the center knee roll. I like all the options for the actual functionality of the pad that can be changed here though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the only brand of C/A's that are redundant are the Warriors, but even they're dropping the GT line (supposedly). Bauer, CCM, and Vaughn have two very different feeling C/A's to warrant the dual SKU. Brian's only has the one line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
