  1. Yea, really just need to get the chance to work on it. I could really use a couple stick time sessions in just lowers and gloves to work on skating and movements in general. Do you mean I drop to my RIGHT knee? I'm actually not able to drop to my left knee from a standing position, which is why I'm not able to go right to left.
  2. Exactly. Re-tooling isn’t going to work. It’s time to rebuild.
  3. I just hope if they’re going to do that, they let Lundqvist go to a contender and get some draft picks in return to help speed up the rebuild.
  4. Holy crap. It’s been a while since I checked this thread out. Is that even the same person?? Well, he skates a whole hell of a lot better than I do, that’s for sure. Though I also envy his ability to get an empty rink to practice on.
  5. Hah so I was exactly right. Not surprised and it makes sense.
  6. Yep, I can do it easily going the other direction. Just can't figure out why I can't do it right to left. Then again, I'm also unable to slide right to left from a standing position as well.
  7. Take it easy if you need to, man. Warmups and my first couple shifts at WF were BRUTAL until my ankle loosened up a bit. Had to sit out a couple shifts here and there because of it. Hopefully we get you at 100% you can snipe me top cheese, but if not, don't push it too hard!
  8. Completely agree. If you're not going to be able to push all the way out, at least getting across the goal line would have been better than what actually happened. Someday I'll figure out how to push right to left without spinning in a circle...
  9. I'm trying to figure out if you tripped or if you just thought you had a lot less time than you did to get into position. Was the initial shot off the mask? Either way a better option would have been to push off and slide across OR get up and get square again (depending on how well or how quickly you're capable of doing either option).
  10. Will Bauer put on CCM holders if you buy custom skates from Bauer? Why would True put on Bauer holders? I'm not saying they are going to stop offering Tuuk as an option; I'm just saying you shouldn't be surprised if they do.
  11. I'm guessing they won't be putting on Tuuks for you anymore, but they may still sell you just the boots. Not sure.
  12. Our local rink has gotten worse and worse. Now at a point where you can see the sand underneath. Another local rink a couple years ago was so bad there were chunks of ice coming up and everyones stick tape was purple from the paint from the red and blue lines. I ended up tripping on a rut, and landing in a puddle. Told the refs to stop the game but they refused, so I just got up and left.
  13. I'd have to remove mine from the wheels to do it, so that makes it kind of suck. Directional tires plus different sizes front and back make it usually not worth the effort.
  14. Yea the step holders are super ugly. I don't know how much I care how ugly holders are but... they are.
  15. FINALLY got my hands on a Nintendo Switch!
  16. Meh I'll pass on the holder but otherwise yes.
  17. Is tire rotation still a thing?
  18. Yea I’d expect the side logo to change as well. True definitely pays licensing for other categories (Marner is in True gear) so I’d expect they’ll be paying it for skates as well this year.
  19. I don't think they're doing much besides the tendon guard and the wordmark on the toe cap area.
  20. One thing I noticed when I was practicing dropping my knees and keeping my butt up... it feels really awkward to not actually be able to see my thigh rise area or knees because my head is so much further forward. It was also quite hard on my knees since, like I mentioned, they don't exactly like to bend that way :P
