beerleaguecaptain 1004 Report post Posted December 6, 2011 I know I've seen this discussed before but searched and couldn't find the the thread...Which pants are most worn in the NHL? Any of the guys wear girdles?From what I recall most wear a Bauer two piece pant but I can't remember the model... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ZombieAttack27 1 Report post Posted December 6, 2011 It doesn't really have a model. Bauer makes one pro stock pant IIRC, and it's been the same for about a decade at this point. A lot of guys wear old ccm pants (specifically the mhp520 and mhp1052) rebranded with either the new ccm logo or reebok branding. As far as I know nearly every pro stock reebok or ccm model in existence is some variation of an old ccm pant. The one exception that I'm aware of is the one piece 9k. Some players on the Columbus Blue Jackets have been known to wear it.No girdles as far as I know. Not enough protection at the pro level. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

metalwinger13 1 Report post Posted December 6, 2011 pretty sure Danny Cleary, and Todd Bertuzzi of the wings wear a girdle setup, along with Filppula, and Abdelkader Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ZombieAttack27 1 Report post Posted December 6, 2011 Hahaha that makes my search for bertuzzi pro stock pants pretty pointless. He's roughly the same size as me so I figured it would be a good fit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mickz 107 Report post Posted December 6, 2011 9K girdle/shell is probably one of the more common girdle set ups in the show. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

stable26 0 Report post Posted December 7, 2011 I have spent alot of time in NHL locker rooms over the last few years. The older 9k reebok girdle/shell is the most common by far. There are a number of players wearing their sponsors shell (Bauer or Easton) over a 9k shell. You will see a little bit of everything. I wear one myself and it is by far the lightest, most mobile option out there Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
beerleaguecaptain 1004 Report post Posted December 8, 2011 Thanks guys.Just picked up a pair of Easton S5 pro stock pants (two piece) from the Lightning. Hope they work out.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ryanhockey21 0 Report post Posted December 28, 2011 When you say "two piece" does that mean like a standard pair of pants or breezers, or is it something different???? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ZombieAttack27 1 Report post Posted December 29, 2011 No, it means that there is an upper half that protects the hips and upper thighs, and then a lower that looks like a shell but with heavy duty lower thigh pads sewn in. The two button together to form pants that look like any retail model available right now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
