  1. Couple pics from league tryouts... only two of us showed up!
  2. So why would you have given a new stick to someone from your town? We don't have an LHS in my town, so I have to go somewhere else. I hope they won't discriminate against me just because of my address. Don't get me wrong, I think the woman you described was way off and you dealt with her the right way. But why make an exception for someone local? As you said, it's Bauer's policy that warranties are made directly through them. Megamandan does have a point. Store loyalty should be rewarded. Nothing strange with that. But store loyalty is different than being local... unless that is what he meant by "local"...

I agree with cheechoo... just because someone is local doesn't mean they should be treated differently. What do you guys do with the broken ones?
  4. That is the worst. It makes you look like an imbecile. If I was the manager I would have told the lady it was time to leave the shop or I would call the cops. I don't take bullshit from people. I run my own store (not a HS, and online only), but we get calls from asshats. I don't think they expect it when I tell them that they're being rude and I won't deal with them. Shuts them up really quick. Some people just think yelling is going to solve the problem. No - being honest will help solve the problem. I don't have problems with customers who call yelling at me if their problem was my fault and is correctable through me. I have problems with the ones that broke their own stuff and call and yell at me.
  5. Found some very old pics of me... In white, crouched over In white Bottom row, 2nd from right (Seattle jersey)
  6. Get the one that feels the most comfortable. I didn't want to spend $500 on my xxx's but they were way more comfortable than the $300 xx's I was looking at. It was a no brainer at that point.
  7. Sean Skinner says that he prefers rounded toe as at any angle there is more stick closer towards the surface of the ice. That is true except when the square toe stick is flush. I personally believe that a rounded toe does help but I think that you could get good with ANY shaped toe as long as you practice a lot. I use Shanahan (square toe) and have gotten much better in the last few months with practice. My thought is hey, if the pros can do it with a square toe, I should be able to too...
  8. Only if your marginal tax rate is 100%. I second that .... the tax man a cometh if you haven't already dealt with him this year.
  9. Speaking of mommies.. Nothing better than when the hot moms come in .. Not even when a hot single girl comes in?
  10. I would have called the cops! He'd be sorry when the police tracked him down, even if they just gave him a warning.
  11. I think they should rename it on the board to be "points" not "posts"
  12. Bend at the knees, not at the waist. He looks fine to me in pic 3... maybe it was just bad timing for some of the other photos.
  13. You should tell them to sell them on their website (like the college I went to - UW Huskies) .. I would buy one. That color combo looks awesome with your pads. Rarely do I think a goalie looks as good as you do... could be a good money maker for your club.. maybe help buy some extra gear or something.
  14. Good call... they actually have a good assortment of inexpensive blades at HG...
  15. Any websites where you can get cheap wood blades? Someone said 99 cents? I don't live anywhere near where I can get blades at that price. Or, if someone could suggest a store in Vancouver, BC, I will be going there in March... Thanks!
