Scythe

I didn't get to see any of it .. will watch the highlights later.. I bet Varlamov was pi**ed for getting pulled ☹

8 - 0 ... what happened?  

First day at work with my new gloves. Had me thinking a set of vintage gear with the blue would look pretty nice. 

Would that color tan be known as bucky?

Will the long flights have any affect on the teams performances? 

Could the ice be a lot different in Vegas vs Centre Bell? 

Good topic.. my Itech 4.8 X Wing catcher white navy sliver is worth mentioning here .. I've had more protective gloves  but this glove is light and closes really good too. Probably because it has less beef in it.  The occasional stinger is expected and will happen sooner or later but really hasn't been a problem from the harder shots.  Always preferred double t's and it has that too. They're cheap and can still be found lightly used or brand new if you're lucky. The one I have now was brand new when I got it a few months back.  

Itech started making them with single t's which kind of sucks because I know where a brand new one is right now but it's an X WIng Prodigy X Factor or whatever they started calling them with a single T for $50.

I want Habs - but really, truly and honestly did not think we’d get past the Leafs. Now we’re not going to be swept by the Jets, like I thought… my team’s success has been very hard to process.  I wasn’t prepared for this, and now I’m a wreck! LOL!

Well Carolina might be toast this week so I'd love to see a Montreal NY final. 

I was all set to watch the Islanders n B's last night.. made tacos before the game and had salsa n chips for while watching it... fell asleep before 8 and woke up at 10:38 ☹. 

Getting up at 3am for a 5am to 1:30pm work schedule tends to do these things.  

Wanting Islanders or Hurricanes in this whole thing.

So 4 games for Scheifele. Thoughts on this…? Again recusing myself on this, given my allegiances 

Fitting.. dude better watch his back

How about that goal by Marchand a couple nights ago.. what an angle to find that corner. Somewhat of a tool but dudes always scoring 

Take a look at the Tron jerseys too.. they also have all kinds of colors and can be customized.. mine fits tight but stretchy over my CCM AB PRO c/a. I use mine on ice. DJ 80 series 

Pros.. super super lightweight.. cool in temperature and you can literally throw this on over your chesty with one hand.. no lie. Washes well. 

Cons.. thin fabric is somewhat prone to damage from high caliber shots.

Stick manufacturers should just make trigger grip a standard on their sticks and make no trigger a custom order. 

The Montreal sticks from some years back had the longest shafts I've ever seen.. they seemed really balanced uncut. 

bye Bauer I use to only use your skates ... until about a couple months ago when I jumped on board the CCM boat! Best move eva!

I just bought a pair of Hoka One One shoes. My wife runs marathons, so I'm going to try to keep up with her.

The earlier post wasn't too accurate.. I hurt myself May 3rd and when i said i was feeling 80% .. , well at that time of that post it was more like 60% .. 

I now feel 90% better.. with the help of stretching and getting up and moving.. working actually.  Unfortunately I've had to work through all this. 

I tried holding off on taking any kind of drug but broke down and bought a small bottle of Aleve Back and Muscle Pain. I took 1 tablet a couple days ago and it seemed to really help. If any of you are thinking about an otc medication for back pain you may want to try it. 

The best part of this is I'm getting excited about seeing the rink again and playing. 

Check with your Doctor before taking any medications 

North Carolina obviously knows something

Is there 1 size for suspenders? Or is there like different lengths? 

Last time I got some they had them sized as senior and junior.. senior being 55" or something like that..

I wear them under the c/a , bought the Bauer senior ones and they were still pretty short and I'm not even that tall 5'9". Had to tape the ends up to prevent them from slipping out of the clips. 

My Itech 4.8 .75 grams guaranteed stingers or broken hand

Hey guys, last Tuesday [may 4th] I lifted a case of water in and out of a shopping cart and in and out of the trunk. The next morning 2am i could barely move. Took 8 minutes to get off the bed and to the bathroom. Excruciating pain. I'd guess I'm 80% back to feeling normal.. have been doing exercises stretching it out, heat pads, ice packs and tylenol.  It's said to exercise a bad back within reason and playing goalie right now is unreasonable imo. 

I really miss hockey but am going to sit out another week. Plus this stupid pipeline cyberattack has gas stations running dry of fuel and the rinks I go to aren't real close. Trying to conserve to be on the safe side.

Pro Glo comeback!

The vintage Canuck setup is SICK! except for the green stick.. pant shells are passable i guess.  

KK showing off his new Pred gear here.. not a fan of picture pads at all but the pads themselves are nice.
