  1. Those are dirty...if I had them I would replace palm with FFH...that would be the perfect glove.
  2. Aw yeah! CP94...-1" cuff and +1/2" fingers...all Navy (Grey Eagle on cuff roll). Special thanks to DarkStar...great job!
  3. Seems like an awful lot of extra work...with little to no added benefit, other than the bling factor. Skated on the Step steel yesterday, and yes they are a bit higher. Had to work a little harder due to the extra weight vs the Fusion steel. I could definitely feel the difference in weight...not significant...but noticeable. The advantage was that the edges were near perfect after a 2 hour intense pickup. Nicks and chips plagued my fusion steel and LS2 steel, thus the decision to switch to a better quality steel to reduce the frequency of sharpening. Over the last couple months I was averaging only 5-6 sessions, with edges so jacked up I had to ship them for another 90/50 treatment.
  4. Real men wear pink. Thinking about finding pink socks and pink jersey to rock with Navy on Cancer awareness month. Working on that.
  5. New hockey room. Split the new office in half for heating/cooling purposes. Second half now my new hockey room. 2 - S19s with tinted visors (Black and Navy) Assortment of Sox and RBK Edge practice jerseys...and MSH jerseys of course custom TO's with Graf 705 tongues (box to the middle bottom are my 2nd pair still spankin' new) UMaine 4-rolls ATL One95s CBL Vapor XXXX TBL Vapor XXX Ben Eager SE16s ATL Mike Ribiero Vapor XXX Dallas Jofa 9060 shins Selection of sticks...yes...two Mission Flyweight shafts MHP 520 Caps (Reebok) and TBL (CCM) RBK 8K elbows Old sets of One90 shins Tape and Ovechkin collectables
  6. Switched a year ago...and will never look back. It sucks that no one locally has it...but rotating and shipping steel costs about the same as a sharpening...so no complaints. I do 90/75 in the winter and 90/50 in the spring-summer. The glide of the FBV is the largest advantage and it works.
  7. Great head injury article in the latest Hockey News playoff edition. He was interviewed.
  8. Summer jam....summer jam...

  9. From what they are saying on NHL network...he might be done for the year. Sad news.
  10. What's wrong with mental masturbation? :) Sorry...I couldn't resist! But I agree with totally...simply put FBV works and is a major improvement over ROH.
  11. No. Pros only. Customs limited to x60 and TOs for Bauer. I think they still do the Flexlite Pro 4.0s.
  12. It really is. I just can't imagine buying a retail high end skate.
  13. If it's a custom...it's not about a retail last fitting like another retail last...it's about any boot you want fitted properly.
  14. They don't make your skates from a foot mold...but with the tracings and the measurements they certainly do the best job I have ever seen. My TOs are the best fit I have ever had by a mile. The biggest difference was their attention to the volume in the upper ankle - an area I have struggled with for proper fit. I was so tired of getting a great fit in the front and mid sections...to only have to crank on the laces to get a good ankle wrap on my skinny ankles. This leads to a better forward flex for me...because I don't have the quarters wrapping toward the front of my leg...and with my personal preference of a stiff boot it only restricted that flex. After switching from the reflex tongue to the Graf tongue...the proper upper measurement has been the single biggest affect in performance.
  15. Sick pickups...a red helmet and you got the ensemble locked up for a MSH skate!
  16. Where did you happen to get those? I live near Syracuse and always looking for their stuff...love the CHI color scheme.
  17. Thanks man. Iced them for two days...helped a bit. Left nut still black and blue...shit still hurts. Looked into the no-needle option, but there were no doctors remotely close to me, and traditional therapy seems to be the only one accepted by health insurance. I hope for future males looking towards permanent contraception that this changes and the no-needle capability becomes more widely accepted. I can deal with the black and blue...and the soreness. The traumatic memories of the needles, however, will linger for a long time. That should be outlawed as a form of torture.
  18. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise: a vasectomy hurts like you wouldn't believe. I'm glad it's over. I can't describe what it's like to take a needle in each nut. Women will say "if we can bear children, you can deal with a needle". Fuck that. They have no idea how sensitive our nads are...watch a 2 year old tap a dad in the nuts with a plastic bat on America's Funniest Home Videos and see him drop to the floor like a 6 month old in the fetal position...now imagine having to take a needle in one nut... ...then know another one is coming. 8 hours later and my left nut is at least 2x its normal size. I have been sitting on an ice pack all day, and taking Codiene every 4 hours...guess that's a perk...a silver lining to one hell of a morning after Thanksgiving. Not saying that I am not glad I did it...no need to worry about having more babies...but if you decide to do it and you have the option...I vote sleepy time anesthesia. The memory of the needle makes me shiver. I have a very high tolerance for pain. Don't put yourself through that torture. Glad I have this place to rant...cause moving hurts like you wouldn't fuq'n believe.
  19. Absolutely classic. MSH should do a halloween skate where everyone has to wear a costume in order to play. That would be a riot.
  20. I went the 3/8" vamping on my TOs...sure glad I did. Perfect sizing with measurements. Didn't know the new toecap in the TO was a bit taller than in the past. Compensate the height there with foam under my superfeet yellows. Other than that the boot was perfect out of the box...never had to bake them. 5 months of play and still worth every penny...and look as good as new.
  21. I will always remember Tony Curtis from "Some like it hot"...Marilyn Monroe was soooo HOT in that movie.
  22. Two more last night vs Wild. And the white skates...dirty. So easy to find him in a game now. :)
  23. Not only that...but you have to see the new St Louis Blues banner in STL. I was there last week...going over the bridge...and there is a HUGE banner with the young guns. Great to see both he and the organization are sticking it out there. BB's house of Blues was the best man....nothing like a live blues band...it was an amazing night. I will plan on going to Scott AFB more often this year.
  24. Way to go DP...makin that cake! http://www.nhl.com/ice/news.htm?id=534744
  25. Counting down the days to TOR summer Jam II
