Does any goalie in the NHL use a Bauer Reactor (ie: not Supreme) chest? I just got one and love it, very mobile and protective. Kinda surprised to see alot of SUpremes on this thread and not any Reactor (unless I missed it?)

Do you mean the new Vapour 1X?

I know at least Vasilevsky uses it. I'm sure there are others.

I still haven't quite gotten my Reactor 9000 dialed in (still comes untucked on the one side a little too often) and now this pops up in my inbox today.  SLR on sale, plus I have a $50 gift card from xmas.  Anyone gonna talk me out of it?

Don't know if I asked you this before but, any serious stingers with the catcher? What level shots are you facing?

Two:

1: First day out with them, low level, puck hit odd part near the heel of the hand. Minor Stinger
2: A week ago, high level (rep players, no juniors), Puck hit flat in the palm. Minor stinger.

Keep in mind I've had this set since release back in April and am on the ice 2-3 times a week with varying skill levels.

This glove has been more protective than my LT90. I don't think I'll even switch glove brands at this point.

94 days from the original order finally have my pads! Got a side by side with my current Simmons UL6's for comparison. For all the talk on pad width, they are the exact same width as my current Simmons. 

Looking forward to getting these on the ice on the weekend. I've got some games before before then, but I don't want to debut new gear in my competitive games since it'll take some time to get used to I'm sure.

 

Looks good. 

And screw it, just jump in!

No worries 

Buddy, I'm bad at this. Here. Took the pics. I've had the senior gear since day 1 of the release. 

Blocker, small tear in the finger connected to the rest of the hand protection (non index finger) this is mostly from tossing the palm into the washing machine. Lol

Glove wear on T

Pads. Wear in the thigh rise from rubbing and some wear on the wraps from dragging on the ice. I wear my boot strap on the loosest setting and don't have very big feet haha.

Thanks for not asking if I somehow manage to pee on it as well... Peeing in your gear... how is that a thread???

Because we're all a bunch of disturbed individuals who are asking the hard hitting questions about gear functionality?

Duhhhh

Well quite convenient timing, but the pads seemed to have turned up at the store yesterday.

Of course, the store didn't tell me that initially, it was only after I pestered them again in the evening that I got the reply "Yes, the arrived this morning". No idea why they wouldn't have told me they arrived right away.

So hopefully I'll be picking them up tonight. 

That's some grade A customer service right there!

Glad they're in finally though.

Also question for everyone, has anyone gotten "denting" on their cuff from shots? 

Zero issues on my R/GT Sr gear.

Yeah I'm trying to be persistent, but I'm not sure if I owe my ire to the Store or to Warrior. 

Store owes you an answer more than anything. The fact that they're not getting back to you with a response is unacceptable.

Hasn't he been in a V6? Wht change to a V7 now

To make Kenesky look like they're the bad guys passing off their work as Monster.

Where was this originally posted? GGSU?

I'm kind of skeptical that it was Monster that screenshotted this and reposted it, the mentality of that action is just mind numbingly stupid.

At the same time, based off of the postings in here, I guess it wouldn't be too farfetched.

I still don't get it at all though.

I don't get it. Why would Monster Hockey screenshot their own comment, crop it and then re post it?

Welcome to the club of winners.

Its Vaughn... I also spy Mrazek suspender straps on the floaters... Who knows... Maybe its all the CARBON  

Maybe the unit comes with shrink wrap technology for a supreme tight fit?

Porter's has the NHL Beef Up package... Likely increasing the bottom line

$250.00 for a beef up package? C'mon now, you're just toying with me and don't actually believe that right?

Cody Porter posted pictures of his V8 chest on GGSU... Some said retail price on these is gonna be super high.. $900???

lol, I doubt it.

Currently the V7 C/A retails at $650 CDN. And say that $900 mark is CDN as well, spending $250 more for a C/A that is just a slightly updated version of the V6 is a sure fire way to price themselves out of the market.

Again, I doubt it.

@itis121 Crude Mock up, but here,

I say go with option 2.

More colour =  Better.

Ah crap, I totally forgot about this. I'll do it later tonight.

Behold the heathen and the sodomite that shall trespass and desecrate that Holy Blue Paint, as they have before.

As per the word of the holy trinity, Saint Patrick, Saint Martin, and Saint Dom:

"All who desecrate the holy land of blue shall face the wrath of the weapons of the holy land. The warriors Billy and Ron will lead the charge against the heretics and will hack and slash their unholy counterparts"

For it has been told.

Amen.

I'm 50/50 on that. Did it really have a huge enough impact on the goal being scored to call it off? Naw

Was it technically goalie interference? Ya

Easiest way to solve this? Make the blue paint holy ground again.
