    It probably has to do with how often folks are swapping the steel out. I've only removed mine maybe twice the whole time that I've had them. Since my preferred sharpeners are all local, I don't need to be shipping alternate sets and rotating steel in and out frequently. I considered hunting down some Custom + holders/steel when I made the swap on my RS skates but decided against it since it would be even harder to find replacement steel going forward.

    Sounds like some employee's parking reimbursement might be a little light and late.

    If it makes you feel any better, I haven't had any issues with the blades being loose in the Edge holders I put on my Easton RS skates a couple of years ago.

    To quote Brian Hackett of Sandpiper Air; "Trouble just finds that guy."

    As I recall, there is also very little rocker on the Shanahan compared to the PM9.

    Ah, now I get it. I didn't realize that it was just specific blades that were standard. The pattern I'd be interested in is the BM12 (Iginla).

    Got it. Were you able to find out if the standard blades were long or short hoseled?

    Any update on when the site will be fully updated to order from the new product lines?

    Of course, True will only have about 5% of a store right now. They are just starting to expand beyond sticks. That said, the sticks have taken off well in this area. Several teammates now sport some version of a True stick (it didn't hurt that I was a LTR tester and they got an introduction to the brand in the room and were impressed enough to give them a go).

    Visor screw/post kits should do the trick.

    Weight should not be the determining factor in stick flex. It should be leverage, form, and strength.

    On the standard or .620 replacement blades, do those have short of long hosels?

    It will be interesting to see Matthews flourish in his second organization.

    Tech wasn't their problem. They had plenty of people in their traditional skates. The issue was quality control.

    Speaking as a potential customer, please do what it takes to gain some confidence driving the bus.

    And yet I've been able to see every minute of the first round. Weird.

    If I'm remembering correctly, the RBZ sizing wasn't so much a strategy as it was a screw up that they decided to live with.

    Sadly, that seems to be every year lately.

    That version you had on the ZL stick was like someone reached into my dreams.

    One of the first things I do once I'm set on keeping a pair of shin is cut off the straps. If you're happy with everything else about the pads then don't let the straps dissuade you.

    Well, since you're adding patterns to the discussion, I will add my broken record request for anyone to bring back the Iginla.

    That's almost as bad as that guy who is always trying to coach between periods but has absolutely no clue where to be or what to do on the ice.

    Beer league and game plan are two phrases seldom seen in the same sentence, unless it is, "who the hell bothers to come up with a game plan in beer league?"

    Translation: laziness trumps avoiding thread clutter.
