It is like Thanksgiving with junk food instead of turkey. Best Sunday of the year even if you don't care about the game.

Rather than clutter up the gear sightings thread, I figured I'd condense all the information we have so far into one thread. We'll be seeing actual pictures and information soon enough, but for now here's what is known so far: Back in November 2011 Easton buys MLX and names Dave Cruikshank the Chief of Speed of Easton's Speed Institute: http://www.eastonbel...speed-institute This created a lot of speculation about a new Easton/MLX skate hybrid. To this point, it's still unknown how much MLX tech is going to be integrated into the Mako skate. There is speculation of course, but the question a lot of people are asking is will the same fit and molding capabilities as the MLX skate be integrated into the Mako skates. Rumor has it that it will be on par with the MLX skate... which is great for those that have flat feet and unusual feet type. Though I doubt the customer service some people enjoyed with MLX will be available with such a large company such as Easton. That said, until actual facts are released though this is all speculation. The only actual solid fact we know is that the skate is in its final design. Here are some pictures. Personally, I like the design. It looks like the flexible tendon guard still exists - however in the last picture it at least looks like it might be removable. I can't tell if that's a screw or if it's just for show. A new holder design is making an appearance as well. At first glance the boot looks extremely deep too, which is great news for that audience. Dave Cruikshank with what appears to be a prototype. Please feel free to add any information you have, questions, etc etc. Easton is on this forum, but I doubt we'll get any actual facts until the holiday catalog comes out or they start posting actual real pictures of the skate.

Any company that tries to put down or bash another or mention them in their advertising only looks like desperate chumps. Pepsi vs coke comes to mind. Pepsi always bashes coke in its ads, where coke always goes the route of our products make people happy, and have a good time and tastes great. This is no different. Just makes warrior look like they have nothing to say except, hey! Bauer sucks! So since they suck, we are awsome. Nice job warrior, I'll be picking up my 1x feb 13 whether or not it has the same type of release or name. Why? Because when you look at Instagram, videos, ect of the stick it's about what makes it a great stick, not how other sticks suck compared to it.

That's awful to hear. Best wishes for a good recovery.

Depends how many Swedes and Finns and European players are on a team. Rare for one of them to be deeper than 3/4. I had a list from Detroit's last Cup winning team, very long radius's, very shallow hollows.
