    Outstanding! Although obviously for selfish reasons I wish he'd have chosen Michigan, but I am sure he will do a kick ass job at Vassar. You have to be phenomenal to land a marriage with the captain of the LI Lightning,

    Excited to see you back out on the ice in bahston!

    I know someone had mentioned that the savoy shaft was boxy, are any of your shaft options less boxy?

    yeah if i lived in a market like that, NHL tv would be a must. Luckily not only do we have good Wings coverage here, but even during the regular season i can get a lot of extra games on NBCSN and CBC. As it stands i really dont have a reason to make the investment.
  5. Stewie
    its probably your market, provider, or some combination of the two. Most days here I have options for up to three games at a time (CBC, NBC, and FSD). If you are talking about highlights via ESPN, that ship has sailed years ago, They don't have NHL broadcast rights, so its not in their best interest to be NHL hype boys. Their entire NHL team is like Melrose and 10% of Buccigross.

    I do not believe the EK60 has changed. The update was the EK60 instead of the EK15, hence his noting of the addition of graphene. The EK60 was released September 2015 so it was not on the 2015 catalogue.

    You're going to miss out on like 30 cents of bank interest.

    They have had other delays too. Either way it should be a sweet car for you and the bright side will be you have a 2019 vs 2018 model

    It's a tesla, late 2017 means late 2018 if your lucky

    wont work for me, i use my shins for roller as well as ice, so id prefer not to have to put them into a sleeve of sorts. whats the point of vent armor on your pads if your just going to cover it with a sleeve anyways. my disapointment is based on the fact that these shin guards worked so well that it made tape and any sleeve unnecessary. No movement, game long, without the necessity to reverse engineer something as they had worked perfect for me to begin with.

    i would hope they would still help you out regardless if its unopened.

    Line looks good. Kinda bummed they are going with a different strapping system with the shins, will see if I like them. Pants look to me like the most likely I would buy.

    It helps a little bit, but I think the biggest draw for them has been word of mouth, product performance, and value to be honest. Most people that I have talked with about their sticks have been completely clueless as to their heritage. They will pick one up in store and say "wow this feels great for the price", or ask to use my 6.0 for a bit on ice etc. I just picked one up to try in roller hockey (hoping to find a stick line that I like for both roller and ice) and off the bat some of the guys were impressed with the sticks feel and balance. When I told them I found it on sale for 70$ they were blown away (it's a 4.5).

    Tried on the gloves at WF and the palms were neat. The glove didn't fit me well so it was hard to tell how much I'd like them overall, but the concept is definitely good. Will wait till I can try on some properly fitting gloves to give a fuller opinion.

    I hear ya, warm winter has been a bummer

    Another issue is that most parents aren't going to want to buy skates for their kid after their initial reaction to trying them on is "these are very tight" on a foot that is still growing.

    went on a job interview a few months ago. Was asked why I was in the market, since I already worked for a good company, and said that my rotating shift hours made it difficult to take classes towards my masters, see my friends and family, and play hockey. "you play hockey?" come to find out, I've skated against the guy 4 or 5 times. at this point, the interview goes one of two ways. luckily for me, the puck bounced into the net on this one.
  19. Stewie
    probably at this point would deserve its own thread.
  20. Stewie
    if that is their current plan they would be doing a bad job of it, considering they are about to release a new second skate line,

    Really excited about the EK60 release, but cannot find any information about what curves it will be available in, other than retailers stocking the 88, 26, and 28 to preorder. two questions arise from this. 1. will other patterns be released? 2. will it be like the EK15 where we see the patterns released in blocks? mainly interested in the 09

    Personally I don't care if your post on here or not, that's up to you and wether you get something out of the venting or not. You are on topic, I'm just saying you need to understand that chippa is always going to be chippa, etc, and you will get some negative feedback on things. You will get sarcasm a lot from me because I Am sarcastic, but it doesn't mean I think any less or more of anyone. This isn't a support group, so vent away, and if the chirping bothers you, just ignore it man. Maybe it really bothers or is important to you, that's fine, everyone is different. Understand the audience, you're more likely to get supportive comments by % in a group of friends than you are guys in the locker room, even if they may be friends. And like Dave said, yes it is kind of stupid that it's not a standard feature in a luxury auto, considering that I could have opted for it in my car, but I'm a cheap ass and just want reliability and safety in a car so I don't personally find it an important feature. Oh and if you want to point out any small stupid stuff I vent about, do so, and I will agree.
  23. Stewie
    I think your misunderstanding the audience here. Yes it's a venting thread, but your venting very often to a group of hockey players. Chirping is in our nature, we all do it to each other when together and apart. As residents of countries primarily in the first world, most of us don't see venting about piddly shit as something you need to do fairly often. If you are searching for sympathy with your vents, perhaps a better outlet would be livejournal, Facebook, or some other form of social media rather than complaining to a bunch of hockey players.

    Having steering wheel radio control was an option for me when I bought my Subaru in 08, but moving my fingers the three inches over to the control on the radio wasn't difficult
  25. Stewie
    I did! they have one in Stowe in September, might see if any of the teams need a skater =)
