Hm, this blocker I have doesn't quite match your setup...

But this kinda does...

That's the blocker I am currently using, but in red and black!  I could make that work though, as one of the teams I play for uses Rangers jerseys.

As for the jock... yeeeeesh! hahahaha

If anyone has an older Brian's, Heaton, Vaughn, or Brown blocker that would go with my set up, let me know!

Thanks!

GoalieMonkey also has the Reebok XLT pro leg pads on sale at $554.98.

Discount codes apply, so you can use the current code of "CLEAR10" to bring it down to $499.48 before any applicable sales tax and shipping.

Only available in 34+2, all white, no break.

Pretty good deal on a modern butterfly pad.

OMG, all those leather straps would make those pads SOOOOOOO heavy...

*sarcasm

LOL, thanks, actually I like the twisted angle of it, we are all a little strange!

I should have reinforced with a suit made of Genuine Saskatchewan Salmon Skin (RIP Super Dave)

First one is years ago... cage on my VanVeldon mask caved in on a shot.

Second one is recent, and is actually 3 weeks after the shot.  I wear old school pads, and no knee pads.. soooo my bad LOL

Third one was about a year ago, tried out a CCM c/a.... went back to my 20 y/o Brown after this one.  The puck actually had hit the other side of the arm and had crushed tendons like they were spaghetti noodles.

Had lots of others over the years, but these are the only pics I have.

My rabbit.

My experience with warrior prior to jumping in was seeing an opposing goalie who wore g2's and g3's. I was intrigued by it but was always kind of skeptical on it. The GT line made me switch over pretty quickly due to catching my attention from the first teaser images.

Honestly, sometimes just jumping in head first is the way to go. Had I stuck with what I was familiar with (Vaughn), I don't think I would have found the perfect gear set for me in the Warriors. Gotta risk it bud.

I am weakening on my aversion to any and everything Warrior.  In my mind they are still the company of the Douche-Font and MMA Graphics... the Ed Hardy of Hockey.... but I am slowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwly coming around to maybe using one of their sticks LOL

My bad. I forgot to slather my post in unnecessary slang.

That truck is straight clean. Those edges are sharp and the colour of the bike is too fresh.

The first 5 years I lived in Switzerland I didn't have a car and took the bus 2-3x per week to play hockey (not team bus, regular bus)

Back in October I got caught excessive speeding coming home from a late ice session.  Immediate roadside Impound... 7 days the car was impounded for, had to take this to 4 games.

2015 Malibu

I put my leg pads in my bag, believe it or not, but the bag fits easily into the trunk of this thing.  The trunk is VERY deep.  4 Sets of golf clubs easily.

It'd be nice if a company that actually delivered products paid for started making suspenders like this. I'm going through the cheapo ones that are available in stores alarmingly fast.

I rarely, if ever, use the general forum tabs. I pretty much use "unread" and "latest" and I'm able to find all new posts/threads and anything else I've missed.

I also use the "latest" most often.  Would be nice if that page stored more than the number of topics than it does, maybe even a page 2, or just increase the number of topics on there.  If I have been away from a computer for a little while, or if it has been a busy posting day, some threads are harder to find and I have to go though all the various subforums.

I think you're onto something here and it requires a mime. Could be a site staple.

The Mercer Arena looked pretty rad. Watched some of that game while drinking a Rainier, eating some Taco Time food, and reading insight magazine. I even subscribed to Rolling Stone after watching the commercial with Richard Lewis.

The white dashers - I think the rink was sunken in the arena. The doors for the Zamboni only opened above the dasher. So the Zamboni had to drop into the rink. The gates to the benches were tight and pretty high up. Even the benches were tiered with the teams sitting on opposite sides of the rink.

The corners were tight. But not a 90 degree corner. Maybe a 10' radius. I played on a rink with actual 90 degree corners. Mercer at least were rounded. The wrap arounds were impossible I'd assume at Mercer.

Zamboni couldn't go into the corner, they had guys with squeegees pushing the water into the corner after scraping it with snow shovels.  The stands were a horseshoe, so the visiting goalie would be at the end with fans behind the net for 2 periods.  Also, the stands were VERY steep, so the fans were right on top of the action.  Visitors came onto the ice in the corner of the home team end.  You would emerge from behind a curtain and as SOOOOON as the fans on the other side could see you, they would start booing.  It was the first road WHL arena I had played in... to say it was eye opening to a 17 year old is an understatement!

Seattle had great green road jerseys through the late 80's.  

The youtube link gives a GREAT taste of hockey in Seattle back in the 80's 90's.  The game is in the old Mercer Street Arena (now demolished, T Birds used to split between there and Key Arena).  It was a CRAZY rink to be the visiting team in!!  Check out the 90 degree corners!  White dashers on the boards...  Also, some pretty good names in this game.  Olaf Kolzig and Danny Lorenz are the goalies.. Stu Barnes playing, Petr Nedved...

So just curious, are you not allowed any type of video recording device?

You can yourself I believe.  But an organization can not Broadcast the event without Media Release waivers.  Especially if there is the potential for any Minors to be present.  
Public events where you purchase a ticket, the act of buying the ticket is your waiving of rights regarding broadcast and use of your image.

What legal reasons would that be?

Every player would have to sign a Media Release waiver for the games to be shown on the internet.

i find it helps the durability of the paddle, on my sherwood stick before i started taping how i tape now, like halak, i taped like Jake Allen and it got so beat up and it chipped like crazy

Best way to add durability to the paddle is to do what Kidd did, strip of tape up the length of the paddle.  Definitely stops chunks being taken out of the paddle.

I think Olie masks had it as well.
