  1. Just got an email from a hockey company we all know and lots of us grew up using, the email contained verbiage such as "we have been watching your hockey reviews and we like how you do them and how educated you sound" and "we would like for you to try out a few of our sticks and give us long term reviews if you are interested, please give us sizing, flex, curves etc etc on what you use"

    I'm extremely excited! I feel so lucky

    Nice! Did you tell them you wanted the Sanderson curve? :)

  2. I was really disappointed by the totalone gloves. I was a big fan of the fit of the supreme line until now, but I've found the 2013 totalones feel COMPLETELY different on my hand (quite uncomfortable, actually). For those who like the current supreme line, you're going to want to buy up some extra pairs on clearance.

    What about the fit was that much different? Does it fit wider? Like a 4-roll?


  3. Gotta chance to try on a demo model last weekend. Didn't have time to bake it but right out of the box it fit like my MLX's. I could have skated in it right away. I'm sure post-bake it would be only better. Sizing seemed pretty close to MLX. I wear a MLX 8 with the thicker insert in it and the Mako 8 was pretty good for me. When they come out I'll try the 7.5 just to make sure but the 8 felt good lengthwise. Felt a bit more forward in stance compared to the MLX while standing in it but nothing too aggressive. Tongue is taller than the MLX so similar to other brands and better for those that want to flop. I'm excited for the release next year.


  4. I got really angry at my bosses over something that was out of my control and i got thrown under the bus. So i decided to find a new job. I found a listing for a temporary job elsewhere closer to home now that we moved. Since i want to work as a pharmacist and need to start as a pharm tech i took to this place that works for a medical company with Rx's

    I got a call three hours later after applying, then i interviewed for the job on tuesday. The interviews last 5-10 mins and they tell you "talk to you soon"

    Mine lasted 1 hour and we renegotiated the original offer. Instead of coming on as a temporary worker, they offered me a full time position starting on the 28th instead of the 18th. They also informed me they're going to open up their own pharmacy in the building so i will be a priority to become one in training.

    The pay originally was going to be at 13/hr. Today they called me to say they've renegotiated the pay for 15 an hour until i meet bonus/raise levels. I love my life.

    Good stuff H!


  5. I honestly don't see how much the leagues can do to prevent continued head trauma. They can create all the rules they want but these are violent sports. You can assess all the penalties/suspensions you want but some guys will still target the head. Accidental head contact will still occur too. At the speed these sports are played at, a guy moves an inch and the targeted shoulder now unfortunately becomes the head. In sports like football your basically leading with your head. I don't know how you could change that game to drastically reduce head trauma without making it two-hand touch football.


  6. It's nice to no longer live an in apartment...and actually have a yard...but holy shit...I hate doing yard work. Weeds...cut 'em, they come back....! Pull 'em...they come back! Spray 'em with chemicals....THEY COME BACK!!!! Mid level Nuke...they'd probably come back.

    How bout scrap the yard and make it a concrete jungle. Turn it into your dryland training facility. :biggrin:


  7. I feel "Back" I've had at least 3 goals in every game on my sunday games in the last four games, and in another game i had five goals, It's amazing how it feels to now be going full after so many years of being a little in fear from all my concussions and now feeling 100% just getting in all the areas, and even my mean streak is back!

    What an amazing change.

    Congrats! Must be the new mouthguard!

    10 hours of sleep in one night; love it!

    Saw you were switching to Android in the smartphone thread. What model phone did you end up getting?


  8. I have 3 of those headed my way right now. So excited!!

    haha it was you that bought the other 3? Do you live in Canada? I got hit with a $86 customs charge

    They had like 14 of them initially. I picked up 2 a few weeks ago. Easy pick up for me since I'm local. It plays well.
