Pantherfan -- my hex one didnt last to long. it was cool while it lasted, but that was four sticks ago! wickedwrister, the ice skates are bauer 6000's. theyre heavy for todays standards, but to be honest, theyre the only ice skates ive ever owned. after one got to small id get another size. love em. kovalchuck -- the mulecats ya. theyre a pretty good team, not AAA, but just right for AA. they gave us a good game when our 89's couldnt show to a tourny, but with our 89's there we kinda blew them away. they are a great team to play with. we like to hang out with em at the hotels.
