  1. two sweet goals? One 5 hole hasek should of had, and the other, Chelios stood there and watched him bat it in. Should have laid him out.
  2. hell of a shot? Hasek should of had that one.
  3. he is having a rough one so far. He let datsyuk blow right by him. He had a decent hit on the forecheck, but so far looks pretty out of place against the much more talented wings.
  4. you're not serious, are you? if you are, i hate you. if you arent, why did you bother to spend 20 bucks on these?
  5. wtf! they didnt mention my name!
  6. Oh No! Oh My! and Mew are two bands more than worth checking out
  7. They are nice. Im a little worried though. I hear the same creaking that i heard when i had Genesis. I sure hope these hubs dont crack.
  8. Yeah they are. They feel nice. Pretty much exactly like the regular Fuzions
  9. My latest creation: http://img393.imageshack.us/my.php?image=skatema5.jpg
  10. Around $120 if i recall correctly. I saw them yesterday at the D-town mini show. They were pretty sweet actually. Very light with nice protection throughout them. Dri fit lined with memory foam on the inside. Very cool.
  11. Product: 14 inch NBH One90 Glove User Background: I play competitive inline hockey 2-3 times a week, and I am known as a glove fanatic. I have many, many pairs of gloves over the last few years. The two pairs I was using until I got the One90 gloves, were TPS HGT Pros and Pro Tacks. Fit: 10/10 Coming from the HGTs I was a little worried that the One90s would be a little bit too tight fitting for me. Boy was I wrong. Although they are a tighter fitting glove, the stretch material on the palm makes it feel as if they move with your hand. The One90 feels as though its an extension of your hand. Almost as if it were a latex glove. You hardly notice its even there. Weight: 10/10 Weight isn’t really an issue with me, but these babies sure are light. That the One90 is made out of a nylon material allows it to be lighter, and also dry out quicker (read: retains no water) Protection: 10/10 Unlike a conventional glove, the One90 uses raised Dual Density foam on the face of the glove. This allows it to shave weight, and still bring the protection you need playing hockey these days. Durability: 10/10 I have been using these gloves for over a month now, and I haven’t had any issues with durability. Intangibles: 10/10 The fact that this glove is lined with Nike's Dri-Fit material means that it dries out incredibly quickly. For someone that plays multiple games a week, that’s an appealing feature. Yes the glove IS strange looking, but it gets people asking about it. Overall: 10/10 This is the coolest glove on the market today. The features on this glove are astounding, and any glove freak like myself would love these. The fit is awesome, you can actually feel the stick so much better than a conventional glove. I highly recommend these gloves.
  12. Product: Large Mission Intake Helmet Fit: 10/10 I have always used Bauer 5000 helmets, and this helmet blows them away the soft "dynamo" liner on the inside is very comfortable. Fitting the helmet to my head was simple. The adjustments are easy, and can be done with a screwdriver in seconds. Protection: inc. Fortunately I haven’t been able to see how well the helmet protects my head. As far as I can tell though, headlock in the back of the helmet helps. It is supposed to reduce concussions, and I can see that it would probably work. Weight: 10/10 To me, weight isn’t that important in a helmet, but this helmet IS light compared to what I used to wear. I think this has to do with the ventilation holes throughout the helmet. Durability: 10/10 To me this is very important. My 5000's ALWAYS used to split on the sides of the helmet, rendering it useless. The Mission is still in great shape. There are no cracks and the foam on the inside is still stiff, the dynamo liner is still soft. Intangibles: 10/10 The coolest thing to me is how cool this helmet keeps your head. When I first started playing with it, i felt as if my helmet was sitting on top of my head. In actual fact, it was the air hitting my forehead, due to the ventilation. As Mission says, this is "the coolest helmet in hockey" Overall: 10/10 This is the best helmet on the market right now, without a doubt. Its comfortable, durable, simple to adjust, and the ventilation keeps your head cool during the game. I can see why so many NHLers are using it.

  15. see, i would have cross ground them for him. And then charged the Pepperoni Surcharge
  16. Great band in small doses. I like the honesty in the songs from the early albums. I thought the latest album sucked at first, but it has recently really started to grow on me. I do agree with you that the earlier albums are better.
  17. Kasabian is a must. A great English band Also check out Massive Attack, and The Streets, And, The Feeling.
  18. With the Sprungs, you can put a smaller chassis than usual on the boot, due to the rockers sticking further out. It actually makes your turning radius sooo much smaller. Its much more like an ice skate.

    RBK 7K

    Product: RBK 7k / Pronger / Stiff Flex / Right Handed Time of use: 2 seasons of inline hockey, playing 3-5 times a week. My stats: 6'2", 220 LB's, primarily a roller hockey player. Blade: The feel of this stick surprised me with how good it is. I came from using the Mission Hex-1 and the Inno 1100, which both have great feel, and the 7K was just as good, if not better. The blade is very stiff, and has taken some brutal hacks, but still feels as good as it did the day I started using it. 10/10 Flex: This stick is alot stiffer than what I would usually use, considering I usually use an 85 flex if possible. However, I found it pretty easy to get used to this flex, and my shots didnt suffer at all once i realized what adjustments I had to make with the stiffer flex. After two seasons the stick is still as stiff as it was when I first got it, unlike most other composite sticks. 9/10 (personal preference) Stickhandling/receiving passes: Well alot of this is similar to the blade section, so it does pretty well in this category. I find with this stick and curve I can catch passes in different ways than I ever could, such as between the legs, and behind my back. I dont know if its just confidence or what, but I feel the stick has helped me. 10/10 Shooting: As I said earlier, this is a different flex for me, so i expected to not be able to shoot as well as usual, but to my surprise I found that after adjusting my shooting technique slithgly, I could shoot the puck better than before. My slapshots and wristshots are hard and accurate. This stick is really good for slapshots, The puck just seems to explode off of the blade. 10/10 Weight and balance: Basically, the only way I can describe the weight and balance is perfect. The stick is sickly light, and the balance feels just right. RBK did a good job with that. 10/10 Durability: Again, perfect. After two seasons of major hacks and slashes this stick is still going strong. The top of the blade towards the heel has some damage to it where the foam is showing ever so slightly, but the blade is still as stiff as ever, and if the foam wasnt yellow, I wouldnt have noticed it. 10/10 Intangibles: I'm not going to lie, I hated RBK when they first came out. I thought there stuff was cheaply made and cost too much. My rep gave me this stick on a promo to try to get me to reconsider, and actually use the stick before i said it sucked. Im glad he did, because this is my favorite stick, and believe me, I have a ton. And the argument that my views would be different if i bought the stick isnt really valid, as I would very quickly ditch a free stick if it wasnt working for me. Conclusion: RBK has done a great job with the 7K. In my opinion it is the best premium OPS on the market to date. As I stated earlier, I wasnt sold on RBK until I used this stick, and much to my surprise I ditched sticks that i had paid full price for in favor of this one. The 7K delivers the best in both worlds as the durability is excellent, and the performance is outstanding. I highly reccomend people to check this stick out if they are looking in the premium OPS market. 10/10
  21. wierd, just wierd..... Anyway, what Beaver said was right, not all customers are like the ones we point out in this thread. The people pointed out are the worst examples and the ones that stick out in our minds. But for the most part, customers are friendly and are just ordinary people looking for some help with hockey equipment.
  22. There is a fine line for sure. In our store, its a really laid back attitude, and our customers generally know that. We obviously greet our customers when they come in, but we dont like to pressure them when they are looking around. If you have worked in a store long enough, you know when someone needs help. In that case we ask them if we can be of any service to them.
  23. I actually had a guy call up and ask if we were any good at sharpening yesterday. I told him no, we're awful. Then obviously told him to give us a try and that we havent had any complaints.
  24. I'd take a wide Graf 705 boot, add a Nike V-12 insole, and maybe try to flare out the toe on the boot like the Nike boot and have it be the fabric covered, not plastic. Then I would add a Vapor XXX outsole to the boot. I'd put an older style Mission toung on the boot. Then I would put Black Lightspeed 2 holders on the ice version. My inline version would be the same boot and all with a Red Star chassis, Swiss Bones Ceramics, and Labeda Fuzion wheels.
