are those eagles all felt?? Mustang

That was around before Vinny with another name, or at least they had something that was nearly identical.

you know it's not really a Hossa curve, right? when the Thrashers had their equipment sale last month they had brand new Hossa Warrior sticks for $50 a piece. I picked it up, looked at the curve and put it right back down again. the hook on the toe was almost a right angle! no way I'd be able to play with that thing! :lol: You know that no retail curve is even remotely related to the curve of the guy whose name is on it, right?

100 years of wind tunnel testing and amazing advances in aerodynamic drag went right out the window when Honda built a vehicle that looks like it is constructed out of Lego's. ;) That Scion one is worse LOL Mine isn't much better in that area.

correction: goal and assist

Missed the first period but looks like he picked up a goal tonight.
-
It's a good time to do it. The rebates will start drying up soon now that gas is going down.
-
How old is he and what level of player? Oh yes and how much does he weigh? Not to mention the fact that some people notice their edges more than others.
-
ENOUGH
-
A couple pieces of plastic and a shop vac should work.
-
With the Blues, yes. Just curious, who did he wear orange with? All the pictures I saw on getty were either clear or yellow. Just because you never saw him wear it doesn't mean he never tried one in practice or a pre-game skate.
-
No moreso than a "standard" hollow.
-
The people were always fantastic when I called and at the shows, the sharpener itself is just vastly inferior.
-
I think I understand...and if it's anything like what I'm thinking, it's probably a bit too complicated/involved for some of the idiots I work with. Of the guys who are actually allowed to touch the machine, there are one or two that have a hard time dressing the wheel without dropping the diamond on it as it is... We don't use a Blackstone in my shop...but my team does, so I'm hoping I get a look at this real soon - my curiosity has definitely been piqued. That's the beauty of the spinner, you have to be pretty dumb to screw it up.
-
Is this is a wheel we're talking about? yes and no. I'm not sure how much information Steve wants us to give out.
-
The Wissota is a hunk of junk, you have to be very good at sharpening to consistently do a good job with one. I owned one and it was a pain in the ass. The spinner isn't cheap but it will save a lot of money in terms of wheel replacement. Dressing the wheel is faster and less wasteful than in the past. My Wissota only had a smooth steel quill, no markings at all. Changing hollows was pure guesswork, though I did get pretty good at estimating.
-
It happens to most other topics, why not this one? <_<
-
Seriously?
-
Correct. Any new models from this point forward will have Bauer branding, not NBH.
-
We've been telling Joe that for a couple years. At least he started doing foam in rolls instead of just all the shapes.
-
The Hull RTM retail had almost no curve at all, it was a nice heel wedge.
-
How about Rawlings hockey equipment in general? Oh, and would the Fox glow puck apply here? The glow wasn't a bad thing, especially along the boards, the comet tail on the other hand......
-
I used to lose at least two pair of soakers every year, I've had those for close to five years. Nobody ever picks them up accidentally.
-
While not new gear I did pick up something that I'm using as a gear rack. There was a department store chain that was bought out and they're closing the location in the mall near my house, so they're selling off everything including the fixtures. I ended up getting two big racks that work well for gear or as stick racks for $20 each. Too bad I'm not ready to open up another shop or I would have picked up a hell of a lot more. http://modsquadhockey.com/pics/chadd/rack.jpg

On that note - SmartHockey Stickhandling balls? I know every shop seems to have tons, but I don't think I've ever heard of someone actually buying or using one. Just about every kid around here has at least one.
