I vote ... damn you bettman

Oops, might of misunderstood which is which... Plenty of @oneirichockey protective leggings available in both Origin & goalie models for Sr & Jr sizes, both models come with the added Kevlar sleeve at the bottom with the origins featuring a sleeve for your shin pad to keep in in place during the game #justhockeytoronto #weknowourstuff #oneiric

Not mine but just saw this on Just Hockey Toronto's FB page. The leggins on the right seem to be goalie specific. You can see the pockets under the knee area to support and prevent knee pads from slipping down. Interesting. Anyone know this brand? Any good?

How the heck can you move in that thing??

Sorry to interrupt the nice conversation but I have a question for Gasman. Having worked at Dukes, you came across your fair share of different brands of gear. Surely you`ve seen a Reidic mask. How much heavier is a Sportmask X8? I`ll also hit you up in private for a Bauer question.

LOL, there's been a few sightings near the park entrance all week. On my bike or walk to work, I saw a bear or 2 on four separate days. Black bear, not too big, curious but still iffy about human presence. They're beautiful As for the get together, here's the one that happened through the Canadian Goalies website gang (www.canadiangoalies.com), first year and second. I missed the 3rd one due to my work schedule at that time.

So it is he! I thought maybe someone else used the same name. Nice to see you here Gas

I think a local goalies beer/BBQ gathering is in order for next summer

They`re a custom only manufacturer. Shouldn`t it be available to everyone?

I wish they'd round out the bicep and forearm blocks instead of just flat like that. The forearms would fit better in the gloves IMO. Wouldn't mind if they segmented the shoulder floaters right where it reads Passau. It would help with them taking shape to the body.

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

I have the Weasel sling. Was just wondering of the quality and comfort. I'm looking into trying some other brands/makes. You can't say that with a straight face, nah lolll

How does the chin sling feel?

Alright, so tonight I had another 2 hour game. I tied my X700 skates tighter and it helped. There was a little soreness at the ankles but nothing serious. Maybe someone can answer me these questions: - Other than material and blade upgrade, is there much comfort difference between the X700 and X900 skate? - Has anyone worn the Supreme 9000 and went on to the Vapour X skates and tell me their account on feel, fit and performance (aside from the no-cowling and 3mm blade)?

Looked this one up in the spring. A few different models from the same series, and none any cheaper than the other

What's the word on the X8 model? According to PureHockey Youtube, it's pretty light? True?

Here's a photoshop over I did a ways back, similar drama I've got a bunch more I can post in another thread. Watch for it

I too just received some regular Pro Laces last week. I`m hoping to save them for new pads for this season. Looking at the Warrior GT SR like my GT glove. It`s hard to get new stuff and hold off from trying it with your old stuff right now. I`m talking accessories of course. The elastics will feel different from my sliding toes but should be much easier to tie up before the game

Nah, I'm already wasting some on my knee pads, don't wanna break the budget lolll

I need a little survey (even though I know it comes down to personal preference, but different makes equals different takes) to see if you wear your 1X skates: A) Tight B) Loose C) A little snug After 2 hours of hockey last night with wobbly skates, poor mobility control and really sore chewing at the ankle bones - in 30 years of playing nets I've never (aside from my beginnings) had a wonky feeling standing in my skates. Sucks!!!

@cuprajake You just got de-throaned man! ? lollll

I swear those look like you just printed out some pad posters you drew up with pencils lolll I just can't get used to them.

Thanks! It's actually from my early 30s up to now. Here a short video of my coaching assisted by Patrick Lalime. Yup, I'm that big lollll https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o91QZ7z8gW4

Some older stuff, '90s up... 2nd pic. I'm the goof wearing the combo with my tongue sticking out. Sure it's not ice action but it was a fun pool game...wearing masks kinda makes it goalie related, right? ?

Finding a good NA beer that doesn`t taste like soap, especially from a craft beer company...very hard, very hard. NA Stouts are even harder to spot.
