  1. Thanks again for helping me with my skates, @JR Boucicaut. I'm in Metro Detroit so I made the trip to Windsor to get my True skates made. I had the skates come drilled for Tuuks but the store installed them. I had noticed some issues with the copper rivets that JR helped me out with as well. I hadn't noticed the steel rivet issues. It's pretty crazy that was done by, what I'm almost positive was, a manager at one of the largest Canadian chains. I am lucky enough that JR is local to me and was able to help me out with the skates!
  2. Decided to take a picture of the current Wings and Zetterberg glove family. Top: Centennial Classic socks (game worn) and pants, Stadium Series shell and socks (game worn) 2nd: Regular shell, regular gamer shell, '15 WC gamer shell 3rd: Home and away socks, practice jerseys, '09 WC gamer socks, '15 WC gamer socks 4th L to R: custom Franchise, 2x Zetterberg MIC Franchise, Hudler (nearly identical to Z's specs) Franchise, Z's TSR WC Franchise, Weiss WC CCM pro 5th R to L: 2x Z's CC Franchise (game prepped), Z's TSR Sweden Franchise, Z's 2015 All Star Franchise, Z's 2014 All Star AX1, gamer 4500 (Stuart maybe?)
  3. I won't be using it until tomorrow. However, I won't be able to compare them to either. I haven't used the Ribcor since it's initial release. The QRLs that I use are a custom build with a different taper.
  4. I just got mine in today from the VIP program. I've been running around all day today so I will post some more about it later when I am not so busy.
  5. Jets Heritage gear came in today.
  6. Not a bad day today. Berlin Franchise. Zetterberg game prepped CC mitts CC HP45
  7. The current Warrior family is getting a little out of hand.
  8. Hey Malcolm, is that "big toe" version as open or less open than the one pictured here?
  9. I'll throw my hat in the ring as another vote for a few mentioned above: Kovalchuk pro, Kovalev pro (or Perron pro if you need a righty / can't mirror the Kovy), P10, and Gionta would be awesome!
  10. Is there a set price for the tapered shafts yet? I'll also throw my hat in the ring and say that a Kovalev (although mirrored to righty) and the closed mid-toe curve would definitely be an awesome option!
  11. I might know someone who has some they'd move. Let me ask them and I'll let you know.
  12. I usually stay away from overseas Warriors but the All Star gloves went perfectly with my jerseys.
  13. The sock family has grown a little out of hand lately. So before I pick some out to sell, I thought I'd take a family pic. From top to bottom and left to right: All practice socks (white, black, royal, navy, red)Wings '09 WC, Wings '14 WC, Wings home/away, Griffins home/awayAdmirals home/away/3rd, Capitals home, Pirates 3rd, Leafs home/awayLeafs alumni, Marlies WC, Marlies 3rd (?), Crunch away, TBL 3rd, Stars home/awaySens Heritage home/away, Sens home/away/3rd, Caps '15 WC, Caps '11 WCPens '08 WC, Pens '11 WC, 67s home/away, Amerks home/away, Ducks home/awayFalcons home/away, Armada home/away, Kings home/away, Habs home/awayAvs 3rd, Thrashers home/away, Monarchs away, Kings 3rd, Panthers homeHawks home/away, Sharks SS, Jackets home/away, Bulls home/awayBruins home/away, Flyers home/away, Sarnia away (?), Spits 3rdMonsters 3rd, Blues home, Wolfpack away, Icehogs 3rd, (can't remember what team)Jets away, Whalers home/away/3rds, Kings '14 SS, Kings '15 SS
  14. The price depends on what else you want done to the gloves. For example, if you need new palms, it's easier for Pat so it's cheaper. I remember they gave me three prices for stuff depending on what I wanted done. You can email Pat and he can go over the options for you or you can PM and I can try to find the price rundown in my email. He took apart the gloves, replaced the tufftek with the carbon then re-assembled the gloves as far as I know. His work is great. It's like having a whole new set of custom gloves with exceptional quality.
  15. Sent these, and some other simple repairs, over to Pat at Custom Pro Repair and he worked his magic on them. They started off as these: And came back as these: Specs: New Pearl Mustang palms, tightened 1/2" at the wrist-1/4" white Mesh gussetsAX1 style bindingShortened fingers from 14" to 13"Baby blue carbon pinky stripe and Hossa cuffYakupov split on top of cuffAnisimov split on bottom cuff
  16. Talk to Jesse. He's helped me out with my orders. I've done 3 or 4 orders with him now and he's fantastic to deal with.
  17. eBay. TSR got over 40 pairs.
  18. Picked up this shell a little bit ago and I wanted to add a little color to it and cover up the fangs on the side. Amateur stitching here so don't hate. Before: After: The setup inspiration:
  19. It looks like the spine pad off of a pair of CCM pants.
  20. Ehh, might as well update the list. It's been awhile. Helmet: Bauer 4500 Cage: Switch between RBE III i2 and RBE VIII i2 Elbows: Easton S17 Shoulders: Reebok 9k padded shirt Shins: CCM U+14 Skates: Bauer MX3 Pants: Switch between 9k, TotalOne, and Projekt girdles. Gloves: Switch between Franchise, X60/APX, and 11k. Sticks: Switch between MX3 and QR1 mostly. Will break out some other ones every now and then.
  21. Right. Why spend that much on a mold then just stop making it after X amount of time?
  22. Yeah, that's what he told me when they first went over. They still look awesome though!
