The Caps logo ones were $60. It was just the RBK ones made by MIA that were $45, so if you were looking for a different brand, they would be $60. Just in the interest of full disclosure I actually asked him to get me some Vapors, but MIA/Warrior was on my list of alternates. Thanks for the info. Actually haven't heard from him yet, but he's been online a few times today. These are RBK, at least all the logos are RBK, they just have a tag on the inside that says "manufactured by MIA" and the MIA logo

Unbelievable, considering I'm coming from fairly middle of the road gloves. Really really REALLY soft and holding the stick is completely different feel for me. I'm sure if you are used to high end gloves it's not that big a difference but coming from RBK or Vector 4's to these, it's completely different. I think I saw Hockeysc23 in line too with sticks and such, so I'm sure he will be putting stuff up too. Also, Kozlov's curve (one of the guys picked up 2 of his sticks) in person, is one of the wierdest curves I've ever seen

From the caps sale today. RBK gloves (made by MIA). If anyone else there was wondering why there were so many of these, it's because the red color wasn't quite right, so was a botched batch, so to speak. $45, nice for pro stock!!

See, that makes it easier to pick out. I see it now, 3 o clock on the jersey http://www.putcanceronice.org/images/Web%2...20Signature.gif

Just got our box of stuff for the charity auction. One of the items is a 07/08 authentic blues jersey signed by the team. I'll post a pic in a bit, perhaps someone could tell me which auto is davids. Cheers

What about the specials, madness, the Beat? Those are your ska keys there. As for bands people might not be listening to, I just gave a friend a copy of 1999, an album by Cassius. They are part of the french house wave that came through (at least back home) maybe 10 years ago, with Daft Punk, Air, etc. Sort of funky mellow house. I've had it on all day, great music

DAvid was the #1 trade that teams wished they had back per the hockey news this week It was top ten trades made last year that teams wish they had back #1 was the sharks getting Bill Guerin for a #1 pick....which became David Perron

Sorry if it's been posted, but in the hockey news that arrived today the "two minutes in the box" section is with David. What was your "welcome to the NHL moment"? When John Davidson told me I would be in the lineup after the 10th game and I should look for somewhere to live, that was pretty cool. I scored 5 times in my first 10 games, so I started off well Favorite Movie of all time? 300 Worst hotel you've ever stayed in? In Russia for the world junior - that was awful. The rooms were very narrow and the air was bad. Moscow as a city was awesome though Who is your roadmate and how are they? I've had 2; DJ King and Christian Backman. They've both been great, taking care of me as a rookie What was your last job before becoming a hockey player? Mowing lawns Best Vacation you've taken? I never vacation. In the summer I just rest. Going to the all-star game this year (as a youngstar) was my vacation - it was amazing Which current NHLer is a lock for the hall of fame? Joe Sakic

Team pic after the last game of the regular season. I'm 4th in from the right (you can see my RBK team canada gloves, which I love)

The youngstars game isn't actually a game this year, it's a bastardized version of 3-3 hockey thats going to be included as part of the superskills game. Using the goalies that are already elected to the main allstar game

How many rookies on the STL roster...3? At least he's not on his own for the dinner. They were just talking about this on the caps report a couple of weeks back, about the caps rookie dinners. The 99/00 season Jeff Halpern was the only rookie who made the team, however, when they were scheduled to have the dinner, they had a call up from Portland, Alexander Volchkov. He was up for 3 games, the only 3 games in his NHL career, and was there for the rookie dinner, so had to split the tab. Lucky for halpy. Matt Pettinger had to pay the whole tab himself

I hope he's about and gets a game saturday against the caps, so I can get a look at him proper. I will still be rooting for the caps obviously, but would like to see him succeed....then sign for the caps :)

I read on one of the caps blogs, final rosters have to be turned in by Tuesday Oct 2nd. So he will know by then

Am I the only one who loves those translators :) "First choice of the Blues of Holy Louis " Glad to see he is doing well

I hope more companies do this with their mid level gear. Not all of us can justify the high end skates, due either to price, or skill level. Thats why I initally done a review of my Supreme 30 skates, because I'm sure there are more like me, getting into the sport, and would like opinions on the gear they are likely going to use now, not in 5 years when they are better

Ballistik 45 Caliber mid curve, just arrived today, I am doing a long term review on it (see ops review section) Love the colour job

New Ballistik 45 Caliber OPS arrived today, RH, will have pics up in the show it off column later

Not necessarily. Last week at the caps development camp, EVERYONE had to wear the RBK nylon gloves, in new caps red/white/blue. So, it could be a stock the rangers had left over from last year or something like that. The RBK caps gloves for the players that wear them this year are really really really nice

They do a great version of Skynards Simple Man As for oxygen, anyone who puts Rodrigo y Gabriela, Interpol, Daft Punk and Arcade fire up, are alright with me, although, putting that gobshite avril lavine on any kind of stage automatically means you lose some points. My brother and sister go every year, then she has a chill out party back at her places (she lives in ranalagh now)

I'm looking for a pair of easton or bauer boots to convert, $49 sounds good, I was on hockeyworld, but couldn't find them, do you have a link to the boot, or are they likely sold out. Looking for a 10 EDIT: Never mind, 2 minutes later, I got it

It will always be bulmers to me

Update Skates :NBH Supreme 30 Helmet: NBH 4500 w/ Bauer 1000 cage Elbow/Shin/Shoulders : Koho Gloves: CCM Vector 4, Mission HE750 (white) & Newest edition Team Canada RBK 5k gloves, feel great, arrived in the post today from the sell section here, can't wait to try them at stick and puck tomorrow

Which one are you? I'm behind the camera, hurt my back at the league game friday, couldn't play in this saturday. Still went out there to snap a couple of pics. The guy on the right in the street clothes took a puck on his skate in the first, and the holder literally cracked and fell apart

This is a group pic from the charity game myself and a couple of other guys organize. 5th game was tonight, first game with the new jerseys (for the regulars, others just bring dark or light) Here is a full size version http://img460.imageshack.us/img460/6084/pcoi0507zm3.gif
