Sergei Gonchar wore the new Nike Bauer 9500 helmet last night against Montreal. Can't find any pics though.

This thread is killing bandwidth as we might as well just change the title of the training camp/preseason picture thread.

It's actually pretty obnoxious, you're right.

[JR Boucicaut 3802]

I combined them. Should make everyone happy.

If the boss is happy we all are :P

Regarding Spezza's blade: Isn't there a rule for minimum/maximum blade width? In USAHockey rule book, there is a minimum for blade width. The classic example when I was reffing was the kid getting started on ice with his street hockey blade worn down to a spear. I would nicely ask the kid to get another stick. Spezza's blade reminds me of this.

[Wolfpack_1986 154]

Rule 10.1

The blade of the stick shall not be more than three inches (3") in

width at any point between the heel and ½” in from the mid-point of

the tip of the blade, nor less than two inches (2"). All edges of the

blade shall be beveled (see 9.6). The curvature of the blade of the

stick shall be restricted in such a way that the distance of a

perpendicular line measured from a straight line drawn from any point

at the heel to the end of the blade to the point of maximum curvature

shall not exceed three-quarters of an inch (3/4").

Lecavalier is Vector helmet and vector gloves(I question whether they are true vector):

Modified Vector...true new V10 glove with clarino palm. Those are sick...would love to get my hands on a pair: settled for Toronto color CCM Pro tack nylons. Sick glove...similar feel to the NBH 4 roll without the finger padding.

Saw these on the rookie Derek Meech for Det. lastnight. All red white CCM logo. I think they are a modified V6 with polly inserts.

Def not the 6. The 8 and the 10 have the translucent stripe going across the cuff. The 6 does not. If you look at the Vinny pic...the stripe is there. I have a hard time believing Vinny would wear an intermediate glove the way he gets abused.

[TBLfan 25]

It definitely looks like a modified vector, it's got some tacks features. First thing that jumped out for me was the cuff. I guess CCM finally found something that could get him into something that looked like a vector glove.

[A2rhino 62]

I thought the Glove that Meech was wearing was similar however the gloves that he wore look like the V6 in nylon with poly inserts. The reason I say the V6 is due to the lack of vents, stretch material or whatever it is on the back roll as well as on the fingers. Whatever they are V6-V10 or otherwise they are some sweet looking mits!!

Those have to be the UGLIEST gloves I have ever seen.

[Habs21 0]

I agree 100%. I never liked the One90's either. It looks like Skeletor's hands :)

[MLSman 22]

Agreed. Saw them at S&S when the rep brought them. I told him they were not aesthetically pleasing. Didn't get much of an argument.

I wonder why Kuba's using a price-point stick?

[TBLfan 25]

he's not. It's painted to look like a royale but it's not a royale. I believe it's a two-piece dolomite.

Yeah, if you look closely, you can see the line where the shaft ends.

[millencolin9387 0]

But why re-paint it as a Royale? I don't see the point, because it;s not a high-end stick for them.

Pretty sick skates

So are these custom only or will easton be making white and black s15's next year like RBK with the 9k's?
