Pronger Skate?/Ankle Protection?

[Miike 1]

Do you know where i can get them?

Were they the same as Prongers?

You buy them here. I would assume they could custom design something for you if you want more side protection.

Bumping topic again. Check out the guy on the right (not sure who it is), and he's got the proective pads like Pronger, except his seem to have laces on them -- perhaps painted to look like laces?

Looks like its Tim Gleason. I cant recall him wearing them early in the season.

Yet another variation on the lace/ankle protection, this time branded CCM, from Jay McKee of the Sabres:

bet ya guys didn't think he skated in a 8.5?

My brother is 6'5, wears a size 14 shoe and skates in a 9.5

Its all personal preferance. He says that he gets better use of his edges...but then again, he blocked a shot with his foot and broke all of his toes...

How do you manage to fit in a 9.5 skate if your foot is a 14 shoe. Im 13 shoe and in 11 skate. I dont understand :S

Some people just like to cram in there. I thought Pronger wore a 6.5 skate to be honest.

Coffey used to just hammer his foot into skates that were a few sizes too small, Gretz tried it a few times as well.

Damn, here I thought going from 15 shoes to 10 3/4 skates was nuts enough.

To me it looks like its an attatchment that hooks to your laces but i could be wrong

Look at the 2nd picture

Well it already HAS been posted, and discussed, Don't want to burst your bubble.

Edit: I couldn't image jamming a foot into a skate that small. I have trouble getting my foot into a size 12 sneaker when i'm only size 13. Beyond me.

But I was referencing what my buddy, who's head of PR for the blues told me about his skates while he was in St. Louis.

Did your buddy tell you about the prank on Tkachuk early in the season when they found the old promo lunch boxes??
