Wow... that really sounds like one hell of an idea.

Awesome! Piston Honda plays hockey now!! I guess the boxing thing didn't work out! :lol:

Skates debut in the spring/summer. Sticks come out fall/winter. Just in time for x-mas.

Quick Question: I just got a pair of white out 4 rolls. Used the tide pen and got most of the sweat stains out. Would using a white dye pen be a good idea to make the white whiter, or should I use a bleach pen or something? Looking for good suggestions.

Wow.... nice pickup TBLFan. I approve! :P You picked those up on EBay I assume, what was the sellers name?

Well, which is it? Do you like deeper than 1/2", or dull skates? You are contradicting yourself.

Maybe if you got your ass off the bench once in a while, it wouldn't be so hard to stay warm!! Oooohh, snap! lol, j/k

InTeN5ITy, does Old Bridge have ice already? If so, I can't imagine its too good. Must be really soft, at least it was when I used to work at Winding River.

One of my favorites is the parents who come in to buy skates (without socks or the kid's current pair of skates) and despite measuring a D, or even a C width, INSIST that the kid needs NBH EE width. "He needs them, he has a wide foot, just get them" Then they come back the following week bitching that the kid has blisters. Of course it's MY fault. I must be the WORST LHS employee in the history of the world.

I have ZERO problems telling these guys no. Pay before play. Then they look at me like I'M the A-hole. Of course. Un-related story: So Sunday, guy comes in around 4 for a sharpening. We say sure, we close at 5, pick them up by then. Sure enough 5pm rolls around, skates are still sitting there. We lock up, go about our closing routine, then set the alarm and head out. We get into the rink lobby, and hear the rink manager-on-duty say, "Oh, here are the guys right here." My buddy and I then get lambasted by the guy for "locking his skates in the shop". It's about 5:30 at this point, and the guys skates have been done for almost an hour at this point. But again, WE are the assholes for wanting to close up and go home at a decent time after spending 9 hours in the United Nations that we call the Ice House. Sometimes you just can't win. :(

Never had a kid crap himself but..... was running an inline clinic and had the kids huddled aroud. When I asked them if they had any questions, one little tyke raised his hand and asked, "Can I go to the bathroom?" I said, "Sure bud, go ahead." So he did. Right there. On the rink.

David, what model are the blue Eastons? Are they the new SE16's? They look really badass.

I just play men's league now. Why do you ask?

Dude you have the sickets mitts I have ever seen. I wish I lived closer to you so I could jump you for them! LOL J/K. For real though, if you ever feel like getting rid of them, look me up.

Don't start with me! I've got titanium implants in each ankle and 2 stainless steel plates and 18 screws in my right arm! ;) +1 For titanium legs.
