    Yes I have done it. Ended up using a heat gun to soften the tops and sticking a softball into the top of the skate (to keep it open) and tossing it in the freezer to quickly cool it. Worked great. As for the insole - yes I had insole issues also and they replaced them immediately. They should be able to replace the tongues also if they aren't what you ordered. They're attached by velcro so its an easy swap out. As for re-baking, I baked mine at home in the first place anyway. Never took them to a shop. Its easy if you're careful.

    I had the best game ever on Sunday. Made some insane saves, two of them were ten bell saves just before the buzzer at the end of the first and second periods. Unfortunately they had one more buzzer beater in the 3rd that put them up 4-3. Despite giving up 4 goals, I think this was the first time in a long time that everything seemed to be clicking. The only really disappointing one was the last one because it was a clean shot that beat me from the bottom of the circle. There’s nothing I hate more than being beaten by a shot with no traffic! We definitely deserved better in this one. And I wish I’d had the camera up...

    Awesome, congrats!!

    I imagine those folks are way harder on them than I am.

    It's amazing how many people think it is.

    I back a lot of them. Some do well, some take forever with endless delays, and some never happen. Then there are the people who ask for refunds when there are delays. Those people don’t understand crowdfunding. Kickstarter is not a shopping site.

    Had some jackass hit my wife’s one week old car on my way to hockey last night. We won 7-2, so I have that going for me which is nice.

    Never owned Mako2. Only had the originals. From what I’ve read on here though there isn’t all that much of a difference.

    Good luck. I found some 8.5D M7 on SidelineSwap for almost retail. I gladly paid it though.

    Probably. They aren't that much heavier. They also feel "clunky" because they wrap the foot so well with no negative space at all, which may feel weird to people. I always describe them as a perfectly fitting pair of hiking boots. A nice even pressure all the way around the foot. Also, feeling slower and being slower are two different things. I imagine more effortless skating is certainly going to feel slower, too. I'd give him time to adapt before jumping ship.

    That’s interesting because I went from Mako to VH and it felt very natural. Like an evolution. Very similar feel.

    Another defenceman down for two months minimum. Looks like we're not going to stop losing any time soon.

    True

    Good to know.

    They don’t do it in tan anymore I don’t think. The black is the same thing, just colored.

    Politics in the locker room.

    Is kydex sufficient for shotblockers? Is it the same material CSW is using, or similar?

    Check out their site, they actually still make old 1970s style custom pads! It’s crazy. Do they need to pay licensing for C/A since they’re covered up?
  20. IPv6Freely
    Likely true. And these are definitely a smaller profile than most others. I’m a huge fan of the red regulations!
  21. IPv6Freely
    Meh.

    Kenesky has been posting a bunch of photos of their chest protectors going out to NHL goalies for this season. Is this their first year in the NHL? I don't think I've ever seen an NHL goalie (at least in the last bunch of years) wearing one. They said they aren't available to the public yet but will be eventually. I think they actually look pretty good. They seem to have two different models based on the photos.

    First round of our playoffs. Ended up with a 5-2 win.
  24. IPv6Freely
    For us, I think it’s great because they’re so damn nice. I wonder what Hurricanes fans think about it though.

    Went to a pickup for the first time in forever. It went okay, I guess. I was really unhappy with the top corner snipe. I knew he was going high glove and was prepared for it and still couldn't stop it. Otherwise, decent enough.
