They reached out to me on Instagram after this one   First thing they asked was what i ordered and if there was embroidered names..... then suggested that the store might have lost them (which i know is not the case), then they confirmed that they will be done on the 2nd.

I just don’t buy it.

Between that and Mike Vaughn claiming in public that Carey Price became a terrible goalie after switching, something is SERIOUSLY up at Vaughn. 

I can lead the mob to the Vaughn offices if you’d like ?

Hear, hear!

In fact, as a member of the SPCE (Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Equipment), I'd ask that all equipment found on site be removed prior, and set up in new homes.

I'll send my mailing address...

@TheGoalNet What are you guys referring to with Glovegate?

It's a tongue in cheek joke about how CCM catcher graphics never line up with the legpads and blocker.

It's always reversed.

Vaughn V6 2200...did they produce a pro and sr version or just one of either?

[seagoal 823]

The 2200 is the pro north America version and the 1100 is the senior off-shore version.

I own two 2200s, one is brand new as of last week.

It replaced the 5500 as my favorite glove ever.

I'll be seeing these live this year

Some of the ugliest gear I've seen lately.

I keep expecting the Pringles guy to appear behind that mustache in the middle of the pads.

[cwarnar 762]

That graphic looks familiar

[southpawtendy48 452]

To be fair, the blocker and glove graphic look different to the pads, and at least the pads have something original on the knee rolls

I like the Original Pringles!

I don’t see a rhyme or reason with this graphic. All I see is the Pringles man moustache. 

Maybe the point of this graphic is to distract the shooter? Even then, it looks silly, but not funny silly.

So how come we see pros using blank EF4's, GnetikIV's, reskinned 2S/2X, well before any marketing. But Vaughn drops the SLR 2 on instagram and we haven't seen a single person in a demo set yet?

You’ll have to wait at least 17 weeks for that

So VE8 pads have a penis. The VE9(?) has a mustache. What is Mike Vaughn trying to tell us?

He is obsessed with penises that have moustaches?

How would you even know who’s demoing it or not? 

[seagoal 823]

London Knights brethren .

Custom graphics abound in Vaughn's hometown.

Someone always seems to get pics of somebody wearing them on ice, in practice or whatever. Spy pics pointing out new straps, different pad face etc. Well ahead of any marketing starting up

It’s likely they want to keep it a secret or they don’t have any demo sets yet or someone’s out there but we don’t know who. I’m indifferent in this subject and respect whatever reason they’re doing it but it would be nice to see if they’ve come up with new sliding technology

I'm not suggesting any nefarious intentions or anything. Just pointing out a pattern that we generally see things in our very own "sitings" thread well before any marketing. The only thing I can think of for the SLR 2's is that Jimmy Howard has a white sliding surface on his red based SLRs

[seagoal 823]

Really liking what Mrazek did with these colors. 

Lots of VE8s on the ice last night and tonight. There's two games on now with full Vaughn vs Vaughn with mitts and pads, and quite a few other full Vaughn goalies in action now, as well.

I'm looking forward to seeing gear representation percentages this season. 

From what I can see, lots of magnet straps on VE8 pads, which for some reason, surprises me.  

Mrazek is not using those,  though.  He has very B? looking velcro straps.  Can't find a pic just yet.
