Updated initial thread

http://www.modsquadhockey.com/pics/JR/2008/Fury/fury2008.pdf Scott McCrory walked me through the line in Vegas. Thanks! Gloves - Two models - Payback and The Difference. Payback is the old Aeroflex, however with a Croslite inner that goes all the way down to the fingertips. Great shelf appeal with the graphics. Palm is a digital palm with embossed logos on the fingertips to give it a little texture. The Difference is the prostyle glove with a nash palm. Shins - Payback is complete Croslite in different durometers for protection. Very nice X-style strap system to hold the pad secure to the leg. Elbows - The new elbow pad is quite interesting. Chadd and I tried it on before I talked to Scott and while we liked the interior, we weren't a fan of the forearm guard, which made it quite cumbersome. However, Scott showed me that it is indeed removable and after that, fit very well. Very similar to the Itech Techlite elbows. Croslite cup will be good for those with bursitis. Will touch on rest later

Huh?

$42.99, $47.99 for ANA/CAR/CGY

It is knit, not the moisture-resistant material.

Not much dangling on my end. Just believe me when I tell you that the U+ does not fit like the Vector of old. I could never put that skate, or the RBK for that matter, on my feet.

Yeah, that's me, #14. 10.5 D/A in the U+. EE in everything else, including both NBH and Mission custom lasts. They got rid of Tacks because the Tacks name means nothing to kids nowadays. The Vector was the answer to the Vapor.

If you were to see my thread in which I have said that I could never put on a Vector due to the width/depth, but was able to wear the U+. I don't know where you're from, but you're trying really hard to sound credible and it's nothing but BS.

It's an updated 7k...

No "new" white 9k I was wondering this as well. If they are close to last year's 9K, it should be a good deal (and they're white :D). Downspec'd from the new 9k, as every skate is.

Gone

Thinner tongue as well. 7k downspec'd however in white. 6k is a new model. Sticks- Modano name pulled off of P34 pattern, other than that, no changes. Protective- No changes Accessories- EDGE jersey and socks will be available at retail.

Yes, that's the point of the S9. :)

You have S9s, not ONE90s.

Didn't it have a name? Or was it just SGX?

You see the shouldies when the Coach's Corner montage comes on on HNIC...

Were those the ones that had the exoskeleton knee brace attached? Yep...the damn name is escaping me right now...
