New jersey arrived in the mail today! Hoping to channel some sliver of good goalie mojo.

Drop-in tomorrow night. Hitting the ice with my younger daughter for the first time in 4 months. Woot!! Adult drop-in starts next Tues, and the girls hit the ice on Weds. tl;dr: Good hockey things happening, happy times to report on hockey website.

It doesn't make it thicker on the portion of tongue that touches your foot. Just a ~1/8" thick piece of material down the centre-middle of the upper half of the outside of the tongue. It's the area on the tongue that appears silver in some pictures (or raised black in some of my pictures) down to the area where the velcro starts. I can post a pic of it later tonight or tomorrow. It will stiffen up the tongue as well as adding some protection. It's definitely a consideration to look into. Typically that irritation is caused by the friction of the tongue moving and shifting when you're skating (or tongue breakdown from this reason). Preventing this will usually stop the friction and irritation. You could also look into a product like Stable26 or Ezeefit Booties to add some volume into the area where you have reduced volume. This may help prevent the tongue from wandering as much, or stop the area from becoming so irritated.

New car....after 9 years driving my last new car. Car payment is like a 4th of my mortgage payment though ha!
