If you like everything but the straps then simply cut off the straps and tape your shins. I always cut the straps off of mine.- 117 replies

Sounds to me like a good thing they put it off.

You have a case with sizing equivalents, however, stock skate to stock skate is the best way to compare weights. This site notwithstanding, most folks don't make aftermarket alterations to skates.

Instead of rolling out, just make sure when molding that the upright lacing is consistent tightness. That will prevent the top of the boot from folding in on your ankle when used on ice.

Just make sure you're getting equal wrap on the upper eyelets and you should be fine. If the top is pulled tighter than the couple below then you will have a problem.

To be fair, hockey is expensive even at just the house league level. Danger and expense are both probably barriers in mom's mind. You may want to offer to do some kind of part time work, lawn mowing, etc... to help with the cost.

Well done, phone interviews can be tough since it is harder to gauge the interviewer's reactions.

If they aren't going to make sure something as simple as wiping off excess glue is done properly then what other aspects are they treating as "good enough"? -

If you bought a hand made Italian sports car would you be fine with smears in the paint or excess glue on the windshield? When you pay a premium for a hand made product then you expect them to take the care that there are not imperfections, cosmetic or otherwise. -

Wait, imperfections are signs of the care that goes in? Most would argue the opposite. -
Someone can correct me if I'm wrong but TotalOne and Nexus are two different lines. The Nexus did not replace the TotalOne.

If you're going to tinker with drastic pitch changes like that I would recommend that you do it with heel lifts rather than profiling.

So glad others don't care for Emrick. His verb choices don't even make sense most of the time.

This is the problem with today's youth. I'm seeing a lot of people making excuses for the kid and trying to find ways around the kid not doing what he was apparently asked numerous times to do. A parent found a need to discipline his child and did so. Good on him for making a hard decision.

He is probably working as some kind of system admin for an accounting/finance department.

2014 Easton Hockey Catalogue
chippa13 replied to JR Boucicaut's topic in 2014 Product Catalogue Reviews
Actually, from looking at the CCM catalogue, it appears that the P12 will be the only option. While CCM lists the Lecavalier as a pattern, it does not appear to be offered on any of the 2014 sticks. -
2014 Bauer Hockey Catalogue

The thing is, with helmets it is "perceived protection". Some consumers, rightly or wrongly, believe that overspending on helmets provides more protection against concussions. To me that is like paying extra for a thicker seatbelt on an airplane. -
The only way out is through.

You have to love morons in today's litigious society. "You failed to make your driveway safe by allowing me not to take care of the driveway before I went to the bar."
