These are from a behind the scenes look where they took a look at both the Cowboys and Texans for inspiration. I now know where a high school not far from me got their branding. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Albeit it's only a small portion. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MTH Posted January 2 Share Posted January 2 Technically speaking - the Penguins old arena - The Civic Arena (or Igloo) had a roof that could open up. How cool would it have been if they could have used this place like this for their games? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A.YOUNGoalie13 Posted January 9 Author Share Posted January 9 Guess Bauer wants Askarov as the future of the Vapor line? He’s almost exclusively used Supreme graphics since his VHL days. Also that glove looks different from the normal vapor glove, but definitely not a 90. Curious what it may be or perhaps I’m just crazy. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iirc askarov used a 600 glove when he was in eflex and somehow got a proper Lefevre style bauer 600 glove instead of a supreme. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MTH Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 That's a good looking set. The break on the glove looks Lefevre as heck. I like it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jerd31 Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 I wonder what Nashville is gonna do with their goalie situation. Do they move Saros before the trade deadline? His contract isn't bad at all for his level of play, but if they do is Askarov ready to step in? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is Askarov that much better of a replacement then one of the best goalies in the league? It may just turn into another Rinne/Saros situation where Nashville, once again, has a loaded back end.

They also don’t have a cup run ready core yet so no point in rushing Askarov to the nhl. My guess is he moves up once Lankinen’s contract ends at the end of the season or maybe its after next Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My guess is he moves up once Lankinen’s contract ends at the end of the season or maybe its after next This makes the most sense. Young goalies don't have linear development paths, so learning behind a veteran for a few years works well. Bishop/Vasy is the example that springs to mind. They'll make Askarov push Saros out the door rather than just handing the reigns to him unless someone gives them an amazing offer on Juice.

It looks like a 60 or 75 break. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chile57 Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 Its crazy how much variation in feel you can get from one glove to the next along the same brand/line off the shelf anymore. Feels like I can't buy an unfelt-up mitt anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curious what it may be or perhaps I’m just crazy. Coming back to this pic again...see how the split T is anchored dead centre at the break? Is it because it's a 60? If my split T on my GT2 was positioned the same, would it still work with it's 75 break or mess up the closure or balance? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
