Putting some of the newer stuff to use... our last regular session game before playoffs begin next weekend. We all wore "E & L" stickers in memory of my friend and team mate's daughter Elizabeth and her cousin Lyric; taken back in July and bodies found last week. Our local USHL team had them done and they set us up for our adult league with a bunch of them for everyone to wear too. Hope they catch the coward(s) who abducted and killed two innocent young girls. A larger view of the helmet stickers to show the details/colors better; actual ones are about 1 1/4" in diameter:

My friend and adult hockey team mate's missing daughter and her cousin were found dead today. They were abducted back in July and with every day that passed the thought of a good outcome lessened. It's like they had fallen off the face of the Earth with no real leads at all. Hunters found what are likely their two bodies around lunch time today roughly 15 or 20 miles north-northwest of where they were taken. I hope that the police find out who did this and arrest them without releasing any names first. That way the person or persons will at least live out the rest of their miserable lives in prison before someone else evens the score. RIP Elizabeth and Lyric, our hearts ache.

A huge thanks to MSH'er Slap Shot Hockey aka raganblink. I took a 2-hour drive today to the shop he works at to buy our daughter a new pair of skates. Keep in mind she's just a 13 yr old recreational skater... doesn't play hockey. Skating and going to our local USHL team's games are one of our father/daughter activities we enjoy, along with biking. To make a long story short he spent a TON of time with her and probably had her try on at least 10 pairs of skates from CCM, Reebok, and Easton. We settled on the EQ30's as they had the best out of the box fit. He then baked and sharpened them. I bought a couple other small items while there, and will surely make the trek back down there if anything else is needed. They were busy as can be yet took time with not only us but every other customer we saw walk in the door. It was a well-stocked store too. Kudos for a job well done!

The most commonly used sets I have... still have other gloves, pants, socks, jerseys, etc....

Watching our local USHL team playing the championship for the Jr U20 Club World Cup. Live on YouTube right now: Go Black Hawks!

Toronto Hockey can modify/repair the pants. Only downside is shipping to/from the US... they charge a bit more than they should to return items. Quality of work is superb.

Found it on eBay and paid way too much for it but I really wanted it badly.

Ready to go for tonight's game. Along with a remembrance for my mom who we lost on Wednesday. I need to get away and forget about things for a while and tonight should help.

Finally! Been waiting for these to complete the set...

Won our 1st round league playoff game last night after finishing 2nd for the season. Cycled the puck around very well and it was teammates that usually don't put them in the net that did last night; very cool to have a game like we did. Championship game next Sunday against the 1st place team.

My favorite high school teacher was the English teacher. Great man and I doubt you'd find a single student who didn't like him. He retired and moved to Minnesota where he fought Parkinson's for some time. Each time he and his wife would come back to town he'd stop by work and visit with me. He finally lost his battle years ago and then his wife passed away a year or so ago. They're likely going to be closing down the high school where I went since it's part of our local university and they are forced to make some drastic budget cuts. Every time I drive by there I remember that teacher and how he pushed us all to be better. It sucks the older you get and you begin to see more and more friends pass away. People should remember this and stop the petty bickering and bitching and such and enjoy every precious moment we have to share with others.

I've seen multiple pairs of the "Advanced" just like these; with the flap omitted. Not sure if it's something normal for these or not though.
