  1. Eh, this is the first time this goal as been accomplished at the NHL level. I'm fine with it. It's when it becomes common place is when we should start reevaluating whether or not it should be allowed. Just put it in the same category as the Spin-o-Rama goals in the shootout. Gimmicky as all hell and pretty unfair to the goalie, but overall not a big enough to deal to make a stink of it.
  2. Even worse. It's like a man's Smirnoff Ice. I don't think I've ever had a 10% beer. I've had plenty of the 7.5% and 8%, but 10% has been outside my wheelhouse. I'm cautiously intrigued. Knowing my inability to just have one, those are a hand grenade in the wait.
  3. Scorekeeper just had a stroke while hitting the shots on goal button.
  4. What's with the weird curve in the blocker face?
  5. Probably because you didn't tie your skates up all the way.
  6. Not just you, I can't see 'em either.
  7. Overall shape looks like a premier pad I mean. Especially the gloves.
  8. Sure looks like a standard Premier pad.
  9. Hard to patent anything when you don't official exist. It's interesting to see all the large players all of a sudden start releasing these images at the same time right after the "leak". I'm going to assume CCM gave the go ahead for some pictures to be sent out. So far doesn't look like anything revolutionary or special. I'll wait to see more, but consider me whelmed.
  10. Looks more like the general distribution of brands. Mostly CCM/Vaughn with some Bauer tossed in. Not too different here either.
  11. Need some black padskiz on that glove and you're all set. One thing I do miss about white based gear is the puck marks. My dark set just doesn't show the badges of honour in the same fashion.
  12. Only two skates in and so far so good. I'm coming from a pair of 44k's which makes the transition fairly easy as these models were launched side by side. Only difference is the stiffer boot. So aside from the usual growing pains of breaking in a new pair of skates and the slight adjustment to the stiffer boot / new steel, they've been great. I can't honestly say if they're an improvement yet, but my set of 44k's needed to be replaced anyways.
