Chenner29 Posted February 22, 2022 Share Posted February 22, 2022 6 hours ago, seagoal said: I often think of our own hockey team as a filter, the opponent the stuff that needs to go through the filter, and the goalie (us) as the recipient of the stuff that has gone through the filter. Maybe a coffee filter, coffee, and a coffee mug are the best way to visualize that. The cup of coffee you get if the coffee filter sucks is going to be sludgy and gross and that ain't the coffee mug's fault There could be cracks in the mug, to be fair, and that's no good. But a nice mug can not make sludgy gross coffee taste good. And with that, my analogies are done, haha. So...we're sieves. Nice analogy man 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hell I’m at a .840 with 119 shots against in 2 games played. No amount of good goaltending can save a terrible team in my opinion Brother, greetings. I face an average of 40 shots/game in my Tier I, and 48 shots/game in my Tier II adult league. My teams know I am incredibly hard on myself, but I also know they typically believe in me to bail them out. Censored to avoid totally doxxing myself, at least for now. On topic: I really like Raanta's new set. https://www.instagram.com/p/CaPUCfxLik4/ Edited February 23, 2022 by keeperton 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My thought process is that you don’t win your team games, you give them a chance to win. However you should always have a high standard for yourself. I would elaborate more but who knows who will read this lol Update: no nationals. Welp. To stay on topic, here’s Rittich’s SS mask.

Colour is probably off due to the helmet probably being reflective paint for UV light. Plus you know, the clearly washed out look of printed pads.

The pads look proper to me, the helmet looks too Swedeny. Also, his blocker looks well used for being a new set, probably just a practice version though.

chile57 Posted February 24, 2022 Share Posted February 24, 2022 Guess it just shows we are gear-centric/focused (as opposed to our forward brethren who a couple seasons later say "you get new pads?"). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chakal Posted February 25, 2022 Share Posted February 25, 2022 5 hours ago, coopaloop1234 said: It's cool to see tribute sets. But I was wondering, in 20 years from now, how will future NHL goalies pay tribut to current NHL goalies? I mean, now, goalies use 3 different masks with different paint-jobs each season and nobody uses the same graphic on gear for more than a one season. So I guess future goalies will still be paying tribute to 80's and 90's goalies. The only goalie with a distinctive and unique mask that comes to mind is Rask. I think he used the same paintjob for his whole career. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
