  1. 7/16 or 3/8, depending on how much more bite you want.
  2. How much are you looking to spend and what are you going to use it for?
  3. They have had two long playoff runs the last two years, that starts to catch up at some point. The number of guys playing in the Olympics isn't going to help there either.
  4. Guy sitting behind me at the Bears game last night was going on about fights all night. Less than five minutes left in a one goal game and numbnuts back there was convinced that guys were going to drop 'em at any second.
  5. Actually, late and in the danger zone is exactly when you should let up.
  6. A couple new ones today: If you're in a museum, you don't need to have your nose touching the glass case. There's also no need to push your way in front of everyone, just to stand there and block their view. In said museum, if you need to send someone a text; stop walking and stand out of the way until you are done. Then continue with your tour. Oh and speaking of pushing your way in front of people; Do you ever plan on looking at those one point something megapixel images you just took with your cell phone? You do know that a flash and a glass case don't work well right? And that there are high quality pics of the same stuff online that are way better than anything you're going to take with the phone you got for free with a two year commitment. Also, please allow me to apologize for swearing like a drunken sailor with tourette syndrome (just loudly enough to make the recording) while you filmed your kids standing in front of every display in the museum. Your selfish and boorish behavior was more than I could stand and I had to respond in kind. Plus it was just easier than beating you and/or your child (and the inevitable security guards).
  7. Why? I'm not trying to be a wise a$$. Whats the difference between the bauer retro gloves, the modsquadhockey bags and shells, jr's custom skates, etc, etc. I thought it was all about a bunch of nuts wanting the latest and best equipment they could find. I understand the no selling rule. I was on a wrist-watch forum and all the online retailers post and it is annoying. So I can see that we wouldn't want a hockeymonkey/hockey giant or ebay sellers posting sales and what not. But the situation with the bauers retro gloves seems to be different. It was a bunch of guys commenting about the bauer retro gloves, everyone wanting a pair, and one guy taking the initiative and placing the order. I don't think he made money on the deal. The gloves were only a little more than retail 4-rolls. A lot less than customs. I know that. And if he did make money, we supported a lhs. I don't know...just my 2 cents. What do I know. You're wrong on just about every point. It's time to drop it and move on.
  8. http://scores.espn.go.com/nhl/boxscore?gameId=300114006 Healthy scratch He's listed as a healthy scratch but he got hurt a couple of games ago. If he isn't healthy they are leaving themselves open to a fine from the league.

  10. Honestly, I have always much preferred king of the hill to the simpsons, south park, family guy .. any of those shows. Its on a whole different level. Its humorous using real life situations, not drawing off potty humor, politics or celebrities like so much stuff out there. It's the most like a "normal" sit-com.
  11. Four pair? I bid on a couple pair but had to run out while it was ending.
  12. Glad to hear it. Any word on damage to their home?

    CCM V08

    CCM Vector helmet V08 size medium. I've been using this for quite a while in beer league and pickup hockey. Fit - The helmet is more rounded than some other helmets, making it a good fit for me. Fit is similar to some of the older Jofa helmets as well as the HT2, x52 and x92 series helmets from CCM. Obviously this is going to vary from person to person. They do seem to fit bigger than a lot of other helmets, make sure you check your size when buying. The tool-less adjustment is easy and works smoothly, yet doesn't move while playing. 9/10 Ventilation - Air flow seems adequate. I don't get cold in the winter and I don't feel like I'm going to die of heat exhaustion when I play in the summer. 9/10 Protection- This isn't the place to get into the VN vs EPP thing (again) but I feel very comfortable with the protection offered by this helmet. My only concern is that the padding is starting to stiffen up a bit, though that could be from it sitting in my car or closet for extended periods of time in the cold weather. I haven't been able to play much lately due to a (non hockey related) concussion. I do like the fact that it seems to fit deeper and cover more of the base of the skull. 8/10 Weight - I really don't notice it when I'm on the ice, that's about all you can really ask of a helmet. 9/10 Durability - A year+ in and it still looks great. I do use a helmet bag to protect it and the visor (when I have one on) so that does help. Again, my only concern is the slight stiffening of the VN padding. 8/10 Conclusion - Solid all around helmet and an excellent value. Sizing and fit is a little unique, so make sure you try it and don't just buy it blind.
  14. I usually used to go between 5/8 and 3/4 depending on the ice and I use 90/75 now
  15. Damn, I've been looking for something in exactly those colors. I don't know how I missed them.
  16. Damn man, that's a tough spot. I used to play hockey with a guy that took a contract gig in Haiti helping reform the government and law enforcement community. Unfortunately I lost his email address somewhere along the way. If anyone sees a tall, thin guy with curly reddish hair and glasses, let me know. Carl is one of the best people I have ever met.
  17. Have a Guiness at the pub across from the entrance for me.
  18. Yes, the posts were deleted for spamming. I'm still pissed about that whole situation.
  19. I thought the 90/75 was pretty similar to 5/8 and the 90/50 is supposed to have less bite, is it not? Everyone here that is used to 1/2" says the 90-75 doesn't have enough bit for them.
  20. There's an entire topic on this. http://www.modsquadhockey.com/forums/index...showtopic=50711
  21. Most GMs want at least one veteran netminder when they head into the playoffs. i already thought of that. we'll bring artus irbe out of retirement for a few weeks. Ship out Theo and bring Biron in via a separate trade. I think the Caps would take back a little salary on theo and loose a 2nd rounder from Biron but would also free up another 2-3 million in cap space. Then you have the room to bring in a top notch Defensemen. This is what i would try to do anyway. The only way they ship out Theo is if they pay someone to take him or if a team is looking to get out from under a big contract.
  22. The "I can say or do anything I want" sense of entitlement that some people have.
  23. Sounds like the same wrap that Mission got hit with.
  24. That's a trick question, you wouldn't sell them anything that wasn't from Bauer. I guess that's the difference. The Bauer product sells! :lol: But to get back on topic. Do guys think Warrior is losing momentum, gaining momentum, or just staying about the same with their OPS and gear? In this area, Warrior has grown significantly. They can't keep the product in stock and it goes out the door as fast as it comes in.
  25. That's a trick question, you wouldn't sell them anything that wasn't from Bauer.
