Yeah, I'm good with the additional info, thanks anyway.

Gee, flip13 disagrees me...there's a shocker. Let me dumb it down for everyone. In the orginal pic of Nylander he looks a lot like Pasta, enough so to warrant a snarky remark, which I provided. Not sure why that got everyone's panties in a bunch. And yes, William and David are friends. It's pretty well documented.

It's not the number, they actually look alike. Being friends makes it even weirder.

I think you've been given some bad Intel. There is a absolutely a glide surface (aka flat) on a single radius. That flat, let's call it a flat for ease of discussion, will increase or decrease depending on runner size. So it's there and it's defined by those factors, radius and runner length. The CAG as I understand it adds a defined flat on top of the flat that's already there. The beauty is you can put that flat wherever you want unlike the flat from your radius. Sounds to me like the OP is looking for the benefits of a combo radius without getting one. More flat and better agility without losing stability, that's a combo.

The scan is not the end all be all of fitting. The scanner may suggest one thing but the player may be more comfortable in another. Did you spend any time in them after you were scanned?

When did David Pasternak sign with the Leafs...
-
All mine say 40, that includes 3 different hollows and one Fire.

You can't be serious, in a cast for about a month and you expect to be playing one day after the cast comes off....
-
I think point being made is as you sharpen you change the width and alter the angle of the blades. You're essentially grinding away the gains.

The old Nike/Innovative asymmetrical shaft is back.

One way to find out. Lower the wheel and check the spring tension by hand. Raise it up and see if you feel a difference. The difference you hear could be debris on the ring after hitting the toe.
-
This is my understanding as well. Which was confirmed by someone who works there.
-
If the shop pooched the mount. They should be pick up the cost of shipping. They made the mistake not you.
-
Rip it in half. Put the straggley end towards the grip instead of the end, you'll never notice.
-
That's why I said, last I checked, which was back when the holder was first released. At the time I could only find CCM replacement steel.
-
Last I checked the only steel available for the XS holder was stock CCM steel. CCM has a history of making shitty steel. That said, I wouldn't move to the XS holder until STEP or Tydan started offering replacement steel. It did suck having to stick with Bauer steel for the Edge holder.
-
I empty the tray and vacuum it out every few weeks. Depends on how much it gets used. My every few weeks might be someone else's weekly thing.
-
Yes, I have had that exact thing happen. The chip in the ring wasn't active. No hack, they replaced it.

I’ve rehabbed everything from bumps & bruises, to broken bones, to torn ligaments…including multiple injuries to my hands and wrists. Each time I successfully returned to the ice without issue. The key is putting in the work to strengthen the affected areas. My guess, you weren’t really ready to come back and you re-aggravated it by doing so. That most likely put you right back to square 1. Me, I usually test things out in a low risk setting like stick time or public skating. I start off light, pushing harder each time. If something doesn’t feel right, I am done. Remember, feeling good and ready to play hockey are two completely different things. I'd say, work on not just getting your strength back, but get stronger and don't come back until you are ready. If you continue to have issues, then it's time to dissect your kit.

Grips, different length sticks, switching hands... Dude, you are way overthinking this.
-
I believe that's what's used in the 70k.

I've played around a bit with the Fire rings. Mixed results really. First off, nothing at all like a Blackstone FBV. Coming from a 3/4ROH I found the 3/4 Fire did not have the same level of grip as the 3/4ROH. I switched to the 5/8 Fire which felt fairly close to my 3/4ROH. So if you want a Fire ring that's close to your regular hollow, I suggest going one step sharper. So if you're using a 5/8ROH, get a 1/2 Fire. My advice would be to dial in what ROH works then make the switch to a Fire ring....remember to go one step sharper. I'd start with a 5/8ROH.

I've done litterly tons of PT (hip, knee x2, ankle, hand and elbow/bicep) and it definitely helps. Seems silly because what they have you do is so simple. I'd give the thumbhole brace a go without tape. You might find your wrist is working against the tape making things worse. The other thing I tried was that stretchy tape you see guys use on the top hand of their sticks. It adds a decent level of support. It can be a bit costly to use consistently which is why I went for the soft brace.

Complete with white gloves and skate lace shin wraps...good Lord.
