  1. Why would they aim for a glove to improve grip, you have sticks with grip to do that? The point of the breaks is to minimize gaps in protection while keeping them extremely mobile. 2 piece fingers have bigger gaps in the padding that 3 piece fingers do. So, 8 breaks will have even less protection gaps.
  2. The prototypes were super loose fitting. But I know the fit wasn't finalized so I can't say how they will actually be. These gloves will be called Halo, not sure if they will be Surgeons or what. They had HPR2 pieces on the prototypes.
  3. Yes, but it isn't a thing with CCM not paying, Fluery painted the stick himself evidently. He used to be a CCM paid athlete and this might have something to do with him not wanting to show off their stuff if he isn't.
  4. Yeah, sorry I wasn't more clear haha. We should probably request the thread title to be changed.
  5. They are legit the most broken in and mobile glove I have ever worn and the protection was as good as their pro stocks I put it up against. People were thrown off by the design, but the second they put them on everyone I showed them to loved them. Should be called "Halo" like the stick.
  6. It's a CCM, same as he has been using basically forever.
  7. These aren't the HPR2 Pro gloves.
  8. He got new pads. This a totally new model Lefevre designed.
  9. Absolutely not a standard. Lots of people prefer the cream coloured Bauer have compared to the black that warrior has. Completely personal preference and not something they should be knocked for unless it was actually an inferior product (which it isn't).
  10. Probably an understated one to not make it obvious yet. Also, Geo and Ultrasonic aren't dated... 0 issues on both mine and my gfs 2S Pro palms and she has used them straight since they came out. Clearly Bauer can't win though... people complained the previous ones were too thick and now they aren't durable enough...
  11. This is the truth. 2S Pro are amazing, 1S were solid and even 1X Pro were good gloves.
  12. MOST others. There is one or two that are legit and actually know what they are doing. I only personally know of one but I haven't been able to try everything.
  13. So, this exists: https://www.thehockeyshop.com/products/bauer-elite-senior-goalie-padded-shirt Which I am assuming is what you are talking about? Bauer told me they are a SMU and only certain stores are carrying them and that they won't appear on Bauer's website for sale (which is super frustrating). Do you have any local shops that carry Bauer stuff? They might be able to order it in for you. Edit: Found it on Hockey Monkey EU: https://www.monkeysports.eu/hockey-goalie/hockey-base-layer/undergarment-tops/bauer-elite-padded-sr-goalie-longsleeve
  14. This was easily the worst shooting stick I have ever used. They wanted $300 when they sent me mine. Stay away and ignore this company.
  15. QRL were great minus the crappy foams at retail...
  16. Just to clarify. Unless Bauer actually listened to feedback for once (I doubt it) neither of those gloves are HyperLite. The graphics are... but the blocker is a 1X Pro skinned and the catcher is CCM 590 clone. Also, where did you get that picture haha
  17. McDavid is wearing a 2 piece skate skinned as an FT4. You can see a black line separating the white on the design where you can't on the Matthew's skate. The black line is probably the outsole.
  18. I got sent these to try and test to give them feedback... Like people mentioned here, lace bite was TERRIBLE. I couldn't get them tight enough to actually make my skates feel "snug" until I cranked them and then I had to get off the ice for the shift because lace bite was so bad. I relayed this to them but got no response. That was with the unwaxed as I usually don't use waxed laces. I never bothered to try and use the waxed.
  19. Those Olympics were amazing for Warrior. Oh how they have fallen. Awesome gloves!
  20. Man... if cage shifts after a hard hit... I can see that thing scrapping skin off easy.
  21. But people told me my sizing comments were wrong and they fit true to size 🤔
  22. And there is 0 closure issues? The 600 I had in the past with CCM all had problems with the finger area hitting the heel of the palm. You would basically have to crush the finger area down with a stick.
