  1. It's gonna look wide in the shoulders like Bauer. Good work
  2. Game and personal pressure. It's not all roses and butter tarts at the top. Lots of money and fame but a shit load of expectations and pressure. Looking at how Allen is struggling right now, we're gonna miss Price a WHOLE lot!
  3. Not to dig too much into it, I am curious if it's stress related or what? He always has a laid back demeanor on and off the ice.
  4. The JRZ is a 60 degree closer, like Bauer gloves.
  5. Last time I tried a Brian's glove was the Airlite way back. I'm sure they've changed quite a bit since then. The back hand gave me zero issues. In fact it was a good welcome for post hugging situations and when reaching into scrambles to freeze the puck. It looks bigger, yes, but felt no different than my Warrior GT. It's a dome like cover, not overly thick or bulky.
  6. I think we're gonna have some "issues" with this new guy/gal
  7. What I saw against the Leafs tonight is a bunch of crap. Anything we had going up to the finals last season has gone and died. Some trades did not do us well in preserving a possible go at the cup again this season. Toronto played a solid game. Montembeault held his own despite the loss. Shot differential between both teams was absurd.
  8. Floaters ride too high for my liking. If the GT2 Pro was too beefy, I'm not so much interested in getting a similar bulky unit. I don't mind feeling the shots as long as I don't get an unnecessary injury. If they made a more streamlined floater, I would put them in the bucket list.
  9. That's what I said about leaving my combos to wear a mask, and look at me now lollll
  10. My GT2 Pro was way too much for me. I'm eyeing quite a few other models/brands and I'm kind of thinking of adding the simple SR G5 to the list. It looks thick enough for any level of hockey under Pros and Major Juniors IMO.
  11. I'm just going to jump into the thick of things with the goalies. So at the top we have Price, who is still unfit to play. We have Allen who is pushed into the #1 spot. Then, rising from the bottom (Rockets) we have Primeau, McNiven, Poulin, another cat I don't know and can't remember his name right now, and they just grabbed UFA Montombant from the Panthers. Now I honestly don't see Poulin sticking around much in either teams. Can't speak for the "forgotten" one since I haven't seen him play. McNiven should IMO have a shot with the Habs for exposer and practice. Primeau is still their darling Price replacement project as I see it. Don't know where Montombant will fit in. So when Price is finally clear to play, Jake will go back to his original role, but where does that leave the crop down in Laval? Has Montreal complicated things for the Rockets?
  12. I wear this, have been for the past decade. Other than the Warrior topping the shoulder crest, looks pretty similar. I just don't know if the interior is gel like mine or just eva foam.
  13. Very much like alpine ski boots or cycling shoes hinges.
  14. Has anyone tried to mod a Warrior unit in the shoulders to bring it to code or simply streamline it more?
