  1. LOL no need to tell me... tell the guy who suggested Saran Wrap 😉
  2. Is Saran Wrap strong enough? I would have thought most are using something above kitchen grade stretch wrap.
  3. One thing I definitely think gets overlooked with these is just like you said, you really don’t need to tie these tightly because of how good the wrap is. I see guys in the locker room absolutely cranking their skates while I just basically eliminate slack and tie a bow. I actually played half my pickup on Tuesday with my right skate undone. It came undone and it wasn’t worth the effort to get everyone to stop to tie my skate back up. It wasn’t a problem at all so I didn’t say anything.
  4. Definitely spot heat and flare out the top a bit. I heated mine, and stuck a softball into the top and tossed them in the freezer. Worked great. Made it way easier to get on, and didn’t affect the wrap at all.
  5. I always describe it like a well fitting hiking boot. Nice even pressure and support converting your entire foot and ankle.
  6. After that performance he should stick with it. He’s been bouncing all over the place with sticks for months.
  7. FFS I’m not going in circles on this with you anymore.
  8. Probably a guy who likes less bulk.
  9. Ask the coach? Otherwise, anything dressy I’m sure will be totally fine. Pants or below knee skirt, blouse, jacket.
  10. Im shocked. Every person on my team with Tron socks has holes all over them.
  11. They’re the same except the goalie skates just cover the back with stitched in neoprene. Same exact same gap in carbon on the back. 
  12. Well yes, like i said the goalie boot has a neoprene top rear cuff.
  13. They’re the same except the goalie skates just cover the back with stitched in neoprene. Same exact same gap in carbon on the back.
  14. Low end CCM. They’re light, stretchy, and sized well. We got them as a giveaway at our rink and I still wear it when I sub for other teams.
  15. I wonder if I could order a pair of player skates with a Lundqvist loop and the old holders with the the toe tie opening punched out. Replace the rivet with a nut and whip up some sort of covering with some neoprene and boom... goalie/player interchangeable skates. Unless I’m missing something... but it seems doable.
  16. If you didn’t buy the skates there, it’s usually pretty expensive. $50 is a stretch but I’ve paid $30 before I started just doing it myself.
  17. Nobody on this forum would have any way of helping with that, because they either don’t know, or they respect their relationships enough to not comment.
  18. The point is that this isn’t on the manufacturers, this is on a person being unprofessional by sharing information for the sake of appearing “in the know”. Will the information leak? Yes. Will the manufacturers be surprised that it does? No. Should those two answers justify doing it? Absolutely not. “It was going to leak anyway so I might as well” is not a good attitude to have, and it projects pretty poorly on a business. But, regardless of your argument, or my argument, the simple answer is: “don’t do that shit here”. There’s no need to debate this further.
  19. I don’t get what part of “don’t post shit that’s confidential online” that you’re not understanding. Like I said, I can see it if it’s some kid at a shop who wants to feel important by being “first” with information, but a shop owner doing it is frankly embarrassing. Also, this.
  20. Well maybe that's a nice early start on 2020 for ya 🙂
  21. Posting promo materials for an unreleased stick? I mean it’s one thing for a user to spot something and post it and have everyone speculate, but a shop owner posting it? Yikes.
