Meh, I've always thought white trim/uppers can look cool when done right (Think Micron Air 90's. I wanted a pair of Christian Dube's white trimmed 952's back in the day. I've seen some True skates at the NHL level that have just the top area of faux leather done in white- looks good. The Graf "Great White" models were just too white.

Also possible the first sharpening was subpar, and didn't fully establish both edges.

The finish on the CCM's is oxidized. It doesn't affect performance at all, scratched or not. If you are unhappy with the performance, Step is always a solid choice for replacement steel.
-
Not ruined, but your sharpener used a stone on the sides and damaged the cosmetic finish on the blades.

If there is a tracking number on the shipment you may be able to ontercept/redirect the package before delivery. Contact the carrier you used to ship.

We added a dog to our family two weeks ago. It's been an adjustment to say the least. Up at 4:15 this am as he thought it was time to eat.. First week we were up at 2:30 every day, so I'm hoping there's some additional improvement. The lack of sleep is killing me. Forgot my skates last night- had to play in a pair of rentals a size too small. Good times.

Why don't manufacturers use Poron or D30 in skates?

I would try removing and repositioning the tongue slightly.

Make sure it lists Toluene as an ingredient. They make a newer "safer" version that doesn't work as well.

You can reglue that using Barge brand adhesive. It's used in shoe manufacturing. Apply to both sides, wait about 20 min, than clamp together for a few minutes. Will work on the whit trim piece as well.

The surface most likely wasn't prepped before painting so the paint hopefully won't adhere very well. CitriStrip may be an option as well.

Is it just on the plastic toe cap area? I've seen a couple of goalie skates painted white. If it's in the plastic try putting some duct tape on the painted area and let it sit for a couple of days before ripping it off. I suspect a good portion of it will come up. Mabe attack the rest with acetone.

I would guess different height options will eventually be available similar to the difference between LS2 /LS 3 etc. to address this.
-
My impression as well. I was really impressed with the SuperTacks girdle, and actually went with that one.
-
The "post" portion of the steel looks very long. Steel pouches will need to be made wider . Surprised it's not a tooless design as well. Are they using a skate hook? Does look like a very solid lock up.

My 40 and over team had a practice last night for an upcoming tournament. A couple of guys brought their kids (PeeWee/Bantam aged) as we were short. I brought my 11 year old son. It was my first time skating with him in an adult full on scrimmage. We had a blast. I told him I waited 11 years for this day and it was worth it. He played great- fearless in the corners and carrying the puck up ice. Had about 10 shots, about half really good scoring chances. So much fun.

I've seen worse out of more "established" brands.. Curious how well it fits/performs.
-
Nice. Just for that I'm going to get a black frame for it in your honor.

Wife and son ordered this license plate for me for Father's Day. Didn't even know they existed. They get me.

I'm curious to see the injury lists for both teams when they are released. I know O'Riley had a broken rib, and it's been floated that Bergeron had a groin issue. With Pasta I'm assuming there was some underlying injury- He didn't look right since coming back from the thumb injury. it's also possible that he became gunshy with all the physical play, especially in the finals.
-
I'd like to see Backus in the line up for game 7. They could use his physicality, and moving someone like Heinen out I don't think would make a difference.

When Did You Get Bored With Acquiring New Hockey Gear?
Monty22 replied to beerleaguecaptain's topic in Ice Hockey Equipment
If I recall correctly, Hespeler released black and NYR color scheme gloves patterned after Wayne's specs. I believe this was soon after he became involved in the company financially. The retail NYR ones had a white stripe across one of the lower two backrolls.
