  1. Definitely not True. The toe cap is totally wrong. Looks like CCM to me, too.
  2. Bad time of year to be ordering custom anything. Is what it is in this industry. Theyre worth the wait :)
  3. img tags aren't necessary anymore. Just paste the URL and the forum will convert it to an image automatically. I did this for you.
  4. I did, but it was Rob that sent it directly to me. It wasn't automated or anything. I'm sure you can ask them for it. (Then again, this was in the VH days a couple years ago, I like to think True is a bit more automated for the order process but who knows)
  5. I had just figured that since mine were perfect, I didn't want to introduce the possibility of something being off. But from your experience I think it'd be better to get it done. I guess it SHOULD be more accurate and make for an even better fitting pair of skates. But that ounce of concern is still there nevertheless.
  6. Interesting. So perhaps I should go for the foot scan instead of just having them make mine based on my VH tracings.
  7. I use mine once a week (two passes for touch ups). Sadly I went about 5 months without using it because I was out with an injury. I’m about ready to buy my second ring at this point. After using it I’m not all that worried about durability. I mean, I understand that it’s an electronic box and will therefore likely have a much shorter lifespan than a mechanical tool you can replace almost every single part on, but I still imagine it will still be around for a long time. It’s a seriously solid unit.
  8. I’ve had mine for quite some time now, with no issues so far. Not sure if that’s long enough for you!
  9. I don't understand why the boot being the same is a bad thing.
  10. I completely disagree with your assessment.
  11. I don’t understand... it’s the same skate minus tendon guard with a different runner. How do you like one but not the other?
  12. And another game of the same thing. 6 goals against. Couldn’t catch the puck. I think there were three goals that I didn’t catch cleanly and ended up in the net.
  13. Just a shame it ended the way it did.
  14. I had a similar one from nothing more than a hard pass that I got in the way of.
  15. Three New Era fitted caps, all the same size and style, all of them fit drastically different. That's really frustrating.
  16. I remember skating out I used to get hit on the inner thigh occasionally and it sucked. No padding there at all.
  17. Interesting. The one at SummerJam was fine.
  18. I like it too, actually. Makes it look a bit more finished. I'll likely order sometime in early 2018 or ask for a pair for Christmas.
  19. Not sure I'd classify this as "sweet", necessarily. But I just filed for US citizenship. I don't really want it, but it gives us the flexibility to move home without having to abandon my permanent residency status.
  20. Yeah... I'm just not liking where my mindset is at. It's seriously like they score every time they get into our end clean, which is rare thanks to our pretty good D and good backchecking. Which is why the whole time I have it in my head that I hope the D doesn't let them get to the net or its a sure goal.
  21. Yeah that's brutal also. This team is 7-1 in our league now, with a ridiculous goal differential. It's gotten pretty silly. Last season the league director actually talked to the other captains about the two guys they picked up that immediately became the best players in the league. We were like... whatever, its only two guys. Shut them down and the team still sucks. But this season they added 4-5 more. I'm hoping that they finally get their championship and then the director does something about it. We'll see. He's usually good about this sort of thing (really enforces the 8 game minimum for playoffs, and just the fact that he asked for input on the first two guys gives me some hope). To be honest I think what bothers me even more about them loading up like this is that OUR team promotes from the rookie league below. We now have 5 regulars that started in rookie league. Keeping in mind that we usually get 7-8 skaters per game, thats a pretty significant chunk. We also skate with the number we have. The only time we bring in subs is when they're considering joining us. Never have one-offs. The other teams will usually grab somebody from the D4 game before ours. I actually kind of like that (we actually beat a team a couple seasons ago with 5 skaters).
