  1. The Predators and Black Knights are both in the wrong division.
  2. On top of the edge control and balance, the amount of power that figure skaters can generate is impressive. And they're doing it all with a much softer boot in the ankle than a hockey skate.
  3. There are a couple of reasons why the "rumour mill" type section wouldn't work. First, because then the site wouldn't be honoring manufacturers' wishes; and, second, because that is how a lot of misinformation gets out which then manufacturers and JR have to work that much harder to correct.
  4. I wonder if they're any worse than the entitled 20-something's in the 300k houses. If not for my father and nephew, I'd probably cut the cord on Facebook tomorrow.
  5. One of the most important things to have as a ref is situational and positional awareness. You should have a feel for where the play is heading and where players are, especially those near you. The last thing you want is somebody close behind you or to find yourself trapped in the play.
  6. I might have left off the doors and just put a large fan in front. That said, nice effort there and nice organization
  7. For those of us who have him as our home team announcer, not really a Sweet Spot kind of thing. 😞
  8. I could see where small Cox could be a problem.
  9. Barely any stores hold much in the way of goalie inventory. It is simply too expensive and low in demand to warrant a the outlay to carry a large inventory. Besides, most goalies prefer to order something in order to get the exact specs that they want.
  10. P28 is the anti-Drury and a curve that I watch most beer leaguers struggle with. Pro stocks are always available in a Drury/YP/P91A.
  11. They could possibly present options but I'm sure each team has final say in what gets used.
  12. When one of the teams that you're on has won only 2 games since February (with a couple of hard fought ties thrown in), the team you beat in those 2 games is no longer in the league, and the league still fights against moving your team down a division.
  13. Is the name of the rink "Blue Oyster"?
  14. October is the best time to be in New England, hands down.
  15. A friend of mine was shipping out to Afghanistan and his boss at the time asked him why he would want to go. He told the boss, "I would rather get shot at every day for a year than work another day for you."
  16. Stick length and lie should be a function of how you hold your hands during play and where you like to have the puck in relation to your body. There is no hard and fast rule for stick length such as to your nose without skates or the like. I prefer sticks on the shorter side and mine are nowhere close to my nose without skates. Figure out what you are comfortable with and then pick your length and lie from there.
  17. Sorry to hear that. Back when my mom passed she had been declining for a while due to small strokes and dimentia. It was strange when the day actually came because we had basically slowly been grieving the loss of her for a couple of years as her mind was lost long before her body.
  18. A simple thumb up wouldn't do this justice. Great news.
  19. Dreger just mentioned the Bruins have interest in Kovalchuk. I really hope that doesn't happen.
  20. One of the leagues I play in goes with 17 running periods with the last 2 minutes of the third stop time if the game is within 1 goal. Longer clock shifts can happen if there are a bunch of whistles.
  21. A deal too good to be true usually is. People chasing savings on these cut rate sticks typically end up spending more and having much eorse experiences than if they just went eith close-out or price point respected manufacturers.
  22. Carlson is most likely gone. He will be fetching huge money on the market as there are basically no other high end defensemen out there this year. There are trade rumors around some guys but nothing else in the free agent market to speak of. And I don't find the past two months to be a waste of time. There were some great series and performances. The only disappointment for me is that the playoffs are over and it is 4 months until puck drop.
