Found a new site, http://hockeystickbros.com/, with a collection of pro stock sticks. This is what Carey Price has printed on his sticks.

Krunk Juice...odd. Cam Ward writes "Have Fun" on all his sticks, on the paddle.

[Jarick 5]

Apparently Krunk Juice is Red Bull and Hennessy.

LOL, you mean this guy? Naaah.

That's how Kovalev rolls out too. Full equipment minus skates when he drives to the rink in the offseason.

i could come up with a million things before KRUNK JUICE. dude grew up in williams lake, not LA.

cliff ronning and kirk mclean used to do that back in the day, too.

Some guys try way too hard and aren't comfortable with who they really are.

I was pretty sure everyone did because there weren't facilities to change at the practice rink.

This was only for a very short time. Team/EM put a stop to it.

There are rooms at the sensplex, it is a 4 sheet rink, it is also only about a mile from the Sens rink, you would think the equipment guys would take care of their equipment for them.

Years ago I saw one of JRs blades with 2 eyes drawn on it. I thought that was pretty cool, so I wrote "FAH-Q" on my tape because I saw that on one of the paddles in Dazed and Confused. Some A-hole on another team I was playing against called me cocky and proceeded to chase me around the rink the whole game and hit me every chance he got. My personalization wasn't worth it - I took it off next game.

There is a dressing room. It's at a private rink in CT

What rink?

[TBLfan 25]

Odd, doesn't make sense that all Pens and Sens players would show up to the rink in near full gear, during their playoff series in '08.

If it's that close they may just prefer using their own dressing room and locker room. They probably have other things going on during practice days in the weight and training rooms, may just be easier that way.

Occasionally if there isn't enough time to shuttle the gear back and forth the Lightning will dress at the Forum (downtown) and bus over to the practice rink (Brandon, about a 20 minute trip). This is usually because a concert or something like that isn't done loading out or the conversion is running late. It may be the same in Ottawa.

Penguins will do the exact same thing.

Thought these were interesting...

Those are Manchester Monarchs socks. Not Kings socks.

That could have been the case too, but I was talking about a private rink up in CT where there's a locker room/showers. A bunch of guys skate up there in the off-season. Kovalev is the only one that shows up in full gear.

[camhockey16 5]

that would be funny if he flew his plane in full gear as well - but i really doubt that

It takes a good while for them to setup the locker rooms at ISF. I had my stuff in the big locker room and noticed them working for about an hour, they only had sticks and some protective carted in... it was a lot of stuff.

April 2011 I assume, that would be the 2 year mark for the X60 skates, and stick would be october 2011. The X60 stick came out October 09 right?

the new vapor line should come out in april 2011.i think bauer has almost finalized the product because there is actually someone at my lhs who had the chance to go to the bauer factory or headquarters and had a custom fitted skate for him in the new vapor skate,only 5 others where there, all got custom fitted skates.
