    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.

    "Its not a lie if you believe it."

    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.

    Sounds more like the Synergy boot to me.

    That might not be the only new look for Ladd this week.

    Colleagues who take forever and a day to do something that should take 5 minutes.

    You will get this feeling if the holder/steel is pitched too far forward for your preference. When you try to rock your foot back as you normally prefer there will be holder/steel blocking your heel from getting down toward the ice.

    Judging by the number of sticks that I've seen around the beer leagues around here, I'd say people are buying into True. That should translate into some early adopters into the gloves. I think what is helping True get the foothold better than some other "new guys" is that they can point to some of their OEM successes and draw people in. "Remember that {insert stick here} that you loved? That was us." Definitely helps.
