  1. Or the other way around? Yeah, because Easton had a history of silver skates with red and black accents...yeah, that's it.
  2. The problem is that Warrior's 15" is a 14" with a longer cuff and fingers - not a 5 roll. If that weren't the case, I'd say buy the glove then get the cuff chopped off aftermarket. I'm about to say screw it and try them. I'll see if they have any in stores here to try on but if not, I may blind buy. If worse comes to worse someone would surely pay a hefty sum to get something with my name on the cuff. Lots of 'tards on eBay. Okay, let me know then.
  3. Pro Tacks Reeboks are on my short list of gloves to try out. I'm staying away from Warrior/MIA made gloves. If those are 15" and you like selling at a loss, I've got a nice new Jackson to trade for those. Got 15" Lightning colors...

  5. About the glove - wore them last night and I really like them...I was never a fan of loose-fitting gloves and I don't have any experience with Warrior gloves but these seem to fit me just right. The cuff cuts down on the "openness" of the glove as well. I had been told that they don't breathe well - but in the glove's defense it was quite warm on the ice last night.
  6. Not sure if this is a "custom" glove, but definitely customized. http://www.modsquadhockey.com/forums/index...st&p=678294
  7. That glove came out before M-1 - that was the Injection cuff print.
  8. Pearl Mustang palms, Micronash overlay only on the right (top) hand.
  9. Nah, but it doesn't bother me at all, really.
  10. Special thanks to Warrior Hockey for making it happen - totally appreciated! Especially on the turnaround... Initials - love the cuff. Working in the glove as we speak. I am not sure if I am a fan of the Micronash material - we'll see how it does.
  11. The 4-Roll is Bauer's pro glove. Short of any customization cuff-wise, it's off the rack for pros. The E-Pro is NOT Easton's pro glove.
  12. Same thing I mentioned a week ago. Made a big difference for me as well. I held off putting the spare FBV-cut steel in for now after just using a stone. Before the stone I ran my fingernail down towards the bottom of each blade and could feel a small 'lip'. A couple easy passes with an Arkansas stone and it was gone. Didn't lose an edge at all after that. I plan to go into my 3rd game with them like this and evaluate afterwards. Not sure if I can make it through the next 3 or 4 weeks without changing them out, but I'd like to try it if possible. And here is where the Miracle Stone kicks in (at least in my case). Works great with water. Same thing. :)
  13. I thought the new collection will only become avilable as of April 10, and in stores as of April 15? Who told you that? Because that date was for the Vapor skate, not for the line. Yes.
  14. Eh, I went 85 because Warrior is participating in our Long-Term Review program - if the stick is still intact I can pass it on to someone else to continue the process.
  15. Nah, Fedorov lie 4. This has been a weird few months - finally got back into hockey somewhat and I've never tested so many OPS at one time. I'm finding that I am sticking to them even though I haven't scored a goal using one yet. But I'm blaming the lack of steel on my skates on that one...
  16. The grip has the blue accents
  17. Another stick. Doing three reviews at the same time.
  18. Yeah, so do the Reeboks.
  19. Sometimes they get a little too appreciative. I was working at an arena part time after I had quit my job at the hockey shop. I had a customer recognize me from fitting him/sharpening his skates. We made small talk and then the guy put hands on my neck and pretended to choke me because he was so upset I didn't work at the shop anymore. I do still get people who remember me from the shop and its been almost 3 years since I worked there. Ha, should've kneed him in the nuts and then apologize and said that you had been taking self-defense courses and instinct took over. :) BTW - congratulations on a great season - all the way to the Frozen Four! I'll have to call ya soon and catch up...
  20. Wouldn't know, just got the stick today. Cut it about an inch so it actually will be like an 80, which is fine by me. Before, the 75 flex option only came in the Ti, not the Ti Pro. LOL this has been the OPS month for me, been using ONE95 for the past two wks, now this, and Dolo HD coming next.
  21. Fell in love with this stick in the Mission booth back in January :)
