  1. Correct. Throughout the stars organization there's Point, Khudobin, Jurusik, Scheel, Holtby, Oettinger, Wedgewood and Remi Poirier has an entry level contract for next season. Somewhere online it said the stars have now rostered 6 different goalies for NHL games being, Khudobin, Bishop, Scheel, Holtby, Oettinger, and now Wedgewood
  2. Not a single thing has gone wrong on it so far (knock on wood). I wish I had the upgraded model but as far as I know this is the rock bottom automatic model not the LL Bean, Sport, H6, or LTD. No complaints here though especially considering recent gas prices lol
  3. Stars have too many goalies please somebody take Khudobin and/or Jurusik
  4. Worse things have been said about this car lol But having bought it myself I’m quite proud of it and the condition it’s in considering the price
  5. Personally I hold my stick on the shaft with the glove much higher than the paddle like so (sorry no picture evidence of myself since I don’t play the puck much) A blocker should have no issues holding a stick but the pentagrip certainly makes it easier especially for guys with bigger hands.
  6. Finally got the Subie tinted. Living in Texas it’s a must
  7. It fills the negative space in your your palm making the stick easier to hold. I’ve heard of people sniffing glue but I don’t think smoking it would be a great idea
  8. Here’s a grip I’ve been doing for a season now All slight adjustments in hopes of mimicking the feel of the pentagrip. Basically just tape rolled up into a rough shape and then taped over to give a similar feel. Taping shoulders with standard tape is hard if anyone has tips please share them

    NHL Gear Stats

    No kidding. Twice this week I had to tell two my of former teammates their own specs because they didn’t remember what they got on their gear.

    NHL Gear Stats

    https://www.geargeek.com/position/goalie I use this from time to time but would love to see a more detail oriented tracker focused on certain specs like untucked vs tucked chest, boot straps, Bauer pad core flexes and boot angles, etc.
  11. I got lucky and someone was selling a batch of 3 for $150 since their 12u decided they preferred Bauer sticks lol
  12. Just got a batch of pro department V1 pro+ sticks from a local guy so if I get one of Scheel’s sticks next season I’ll pm you
  13. I get any stick that has a chip or minor crack. If he doesn’t want it they just give them away or auction them online to fans. He told me 25in and P31 when I asked though his stick definitely felt a little more whippy so it could have been a V2 underneath not V1. Sadly I’m no longer in Austin to stock up on sticks.
  14. Interesting. We don’t have many Bauers in stock but the warrior buckets are leaving the shelves much quicker than ccm.
  15. If you’d like I can try and ask for a few next season. Their equipment managers have given me a few of his sticks as well as ordered a few in my own team colors. I had to pay of course for the ones in my team colors since they were new
  16. Not necessarily a gear sighting but I did find this gem at my local shop yesterday
  17. I was told roughly the same thing regarding Bauer. The store I work at currently has a total of 3 pairs of Bauer leg pads, 0 Bauer pro catchers and one hyperlite blocker. With a lot of the Bauer stuff being pushed so far back that potentially puts me in a tight spot for gear next season. Also 0 youth goalie equipment from head to toe in any brand.
  18. Not necessarily a new gear siting but thought it was an odd gear choice. Vasy doesn’t wear his wrist straps on his chest for some reason. To my memory he’s not the only one doing this but I’m struggling to find pictures. If anyones curious I’m slowly making a list of stand out specs and strapping choices that show up on nhl goalies but not at my local rinks.
  19. He’s a super nice guy, as are Point and Ryan Daniels (the goalie coach). Looking forward to talking to them again next season.
  20. I just yell “eyes!” And they seem to always figure it out.
  21. Thank you! It’s a Warrior R/F1 Pro
  22. He’s not the only one but by far the worst about it No idea how he gets his pads to sit like that and how that boot angle is so flat but I kind of like it.
  23. Why not just use the true shift holder (aside from availability)?
