My friend who just returned to hockey after a hip replacement, swears by the new Tackla girdle.

Thanks, guys! I'm still waiting for them to get me a list and pictures.

Stick and Puck would be the way to go. It's just open ice where you can bring a couple of pucks and work on whatever you'd like.

My cousin called me, said her husband’s uncle died. His widow is looking to move his collection of hockey jerseys. He has things like game worn and signed Gretzky (Rangers), Lemieux, original Devils, Russian/USSR etc. all with COAs. Someone offered the widow $300 for the Gretzky jersey and she declined. Does anyone know a way of pricing out these jerseys or auctions that deal specifically with sports memorabilia? Thanks for any help, I should have a list of what’s in the collection by the weekend.

My friend who had a hip replacement just switched to the Tackla Breezer and he absolutely loves it. Much more protective than whatever the Bauer pants he was using before were.

Listen to Tocchet on one of the recent Spitting Chiclets podcasts. He talks about his relationship with Phil and that seems like it could have been a huge factor in why he wanted Arizona.

Bruins got sucked into the Leaf's game. Speed and transition instead of a heavy, grinding game. If they can't turn that around, Leafs are going to run away with this round.

Helmet with visor, skates, gloves. Didn't wear a helmet until I had a kid at a learn to skate session slide into me from behind, take my legs out, and bounce by head off the ice.

Hey, has anyone seen any new drills or systems pop up in the past few months that they love? Going to try to keep things interesting as always. Definitely love drills that force the kids to compete against each other.

Enjoyed Laura Stamm's clinics when I had her as a teenager. As an adult I've been going to Robby Glantz. He does adult sessions, I think I've been to two of them now. Really nice to work on some of the finer details of skating that you don't get to in pickup or men's league games.

I was helping out at a learn to skate program, one of the dads was surprised I didn't wear a helmet. I'd never had an issue in the 8 years of coaching or so. Sure enough, I skate out onto the ice and a kid slides behind me and I bounce my head off the ice. I've been wearing a helmet and a large visor ever since.

Loved the P14, but switched back to P88 style blades when my last Nexus 1000 kicked the bucket.

The people over at All About The Jersey are loving it.

Yep, I knew they bought the hockey division. I'm just surprised they haven't rolled everything over to at least being wrapped as Bauer. Is the licensing fee for the NHL a lot of money?

Devils posted a pic of Hall's sticks. A bunch of Easton sticks and two Bauer sticks. The code on the Bauer is 11076-5 95 CX. Does he have Eastons wrapped as Bauers?
