    I sent them an email expressing interest in purchasing the facility myself and they said the LA Kings will be buying the facility, the deal is apparently already underway. 

    This is incorrect. Are you using the info@icestation.net email? While the Kings have expressed interest there is nothing close to a done deal at this point and the likelihood of the Kings doing anything this big is almost zero. There have been some very productive talks with others but all very preliminary. If you have real interest you can email us and we can arrange a call.

    Bummed for @black296tuuk.

    Don't feel bad for me, I will figure out the next thing. I may end up back in a shop working on skates. I enjoy skate work and sharpening more than anything else so I may just semi-retire and sharpen.

    If you want to help show some support for the rink there is an online petition that was started yesterday. I am hopeful that the rink will reopen under a new owner.

    I miss you JR, I always wanted to do Summerfest here. Maybe someday.

  3. The HGT is still around, but renamed Bionic Team (yes, that's what the T stands for)  The graphics have been updated slightly.  According to Matt, the glove feels differently.  Perhaps he can answer it in this post.  Plus, no nylon at the retail level.

    The main difference in this years HGT feel is in the fingers. If you can remember last years gloves with the "response" fingers, they got very narrow at the end. The fingers on this glove still taper but not as drastically. It gives the glove a much more natural close around the stick.

    As far as the Bionic 11 goes. Nice look, no more Coolmax, Digi-Tech palm, and a wrist guard that does not get in the way. I would have to say this is TPS's best glove to date but everyone is still chasing Eagle.
