Unfortunately, a lot of the gear descriptions are really general only listing the brand and not the model of a specific piece of equipment.

I'm sure goalies will have little trouble deciphering the model numbers (there's simply fewer models of goalie gear as compared to skaters).

You have to remember a lot of the stock pads the players wear will be customized to their needs. It would be great to know which model elbow, shin, etc, but ultimately it would probably be different than retail in some small way.

Kipper's hollow is sick. NHL goalie at 3/16"!!

Yeah, one half of 3/8's. That is a ultra deep hollow. I'm shocked, as it is the opposite of what most goalies get. Maybe they made a mistake and meant 3/4.

You need a deeper hollow when playing a butterfly style. It's all about being able to grab the ice when you need to move.

Cool feature. I wonder if the poster boys will reveal what's really under their uniform, or what they're wearing for the sponsor pics? I guess we'll see when Iggy opens his bag because he's a Nike posterboy but once after a fight I saw some Jofa under there.

Most of my butterfly goalies are starting at 5/8". Deepest I've done (and I cringed) was 1/4". The 1" goalie hollow is passe.

Cassivi in Hershey uses 3/8

It doesn't matter what is underneath - nobody sees it.

that is cool but on phaneufs one it says he uses a synergy grip im guessing they forgot to say ST

If they didn't get specific about the rest of the stuff, why would they about the stick?

Dion Phaneufs says his skates are sharpened before every game, do lots of pros do this?

Fedorov used to sharpen his own skates in between periods.

probably, once you get a hollow you like and use to, you like to get them sharpened pretty often. Like for me it is 1", so I get them sharpened before every game and sometimes pratice too.

Our team has a trainer paid for medical treatment and stuff like that and he is also our equipment manager and he sharpens skates when we ask him to.
