I’ve been flirting with a return once in a while. Maybe this fall (21) or (22) if things get back to normal. But if they aren’t, I’ll keep it on the shelf. The itch to buy some gear is getting louder.

Now that’s living my friend!

That sucks @coopaloop1234 anytime you got to make that decision it just sucks. I’ve had to put down 2 boxers. (Both had the big C) Sorry for your loss. Once my 2nd Boxer Duke passed in away we adopted. Our mainstay Bowie ( we adopted him in ‘11 after our first boxer Bullet passed) was lonely. First was Daisy’18 (cat) Dewey’19 (cat) and another older boxer named Dori’20 (She’s 8 now and Niether one of my other boxers made it to 6) Now Duke we got as a puppy that was his random name he was given. I liked it cuz the NFL football says the Duke on it so I just kept it. All those other pets I listed were their names D’s just find there way to us I guess. When one door closes another opens and a critter runs out and finds its way to you. In my case many.

Tommy Salo turned 50 this year. And is a GM. I remember I loved this mask as a young buck, Koho’s were sweet as well. His Vaughn islanders sets were better but I’m a Koho guy.

I believe this was not what @RichMan wanted when he created this thread.

@MTHthat was my first thought

He is you just can’t argue it. I’m glad he’s doing well

This was spectacular! IMG_7380.MOV

Superworms and kale/other greens He’s pretty cool. Complete impulse buy while at Pet smart. He was tiny but came running up to the glass with all sorts of attitude. I said I think you need to come home with me. Sometimes we let him out and he’ll cruise around the living room. @ThatCarGuymy torti cat follows him everywhere

This is Tokay my Daughters leopard gecko. Yes I have a zoo.

Heres a change of pace. Elliot, my wife’s bearded dragon.

Here’s my other cat (Dewey)we adopted since I posted pics of the gang. I think he could be @coopaloop1234’s cat twin.

I think all tortis are special. My daughter’s is almost 3 and it still acts like a kitten.

@ThatCarGuythats what I say to my dogs. “You two idiots”

Having conscience is a curse.

Well played @Colander

Aren’t we all just tired of Pierre Maguire period.

@MTH yes it had it’s on charm. I always kind of chuckled to myself when someone would shoot a puck into the corner and the puck would just die....

Double G had some great gear.

@Wonder35 do you have a picture of the cage?

@bildeer cool and 580 is the way to go.

@bildeerGreat looking pads!!! Did you get matching mitts?

I apologize for the long post. But yeah those 2 games I mentioned where my kids were there. It was awesome. Peering up at em after I made a save and watching them clap. That was good stuff. I would not have dreamed that would’ve happened back when I was 12 or so and trying to scrape up money to buy gear to play ice hockey. At this time I feel it is appropriate to and thank Play it again Sports. Without a place like that I may have never been able to put together a set. ( for the young bucks there was a time where there was no internet) scary huh?
