Im somehow into it. Wouldnt sport that myself, but looks rad. Man, im too much into being Niko Bellic these days.

Bauer rep was fitting me for my skates telling me how CCM has to paint Ovie's sticks now because he is using NBH. I don't know if this guy was blowing smoke up my ass but he seemed pretty serious.

Don't believe anything that guy tells you. He's the worst rep in the area by a wide margin.

check out ovies new style in those pics too, hes got the sock over the back of the skate now

[DCott 0]

I hate that look.

I like how gaborik, or at least it seems to be him, is rocking his wild gloves on team russia

especially funny since Gaborik is slovak. That and he just underwent hip surgery.

[ddbowdoin 0]

yeah... that would also be a good point

[Louie 28]

I can't believe all the ads with the games being in Quebec.

Not an actual NHL sighting, but I couldn't find a recent Memorial Cup thread.... but just watching today's game- is Nigel Williams from Belleville wearing an inline boot? It looks like a Mission Boss.... interesting.

Looks like it.

hmmm i dont think this would work very well since the toe cap on inline skated has holes in it.

unless you can have the toe cap changed?

[Balmer15 0]

maybe he filled them in with something...they look class though

[AnthonyJTa 0]

Nice call Fury, I didn't even think to try Getty... I tried Google images, and no dice. Thanks.

Judging from the 360 view of the Boss on Inlinewarehouse, the toecap looks the same as the ice boots. No holes.

[shifter 0]

then whats the difference if hes using inline boots compare to an ice boot? softness?

[cds 0]

Apparently Williams is a big inline guy and was at NARCh last year playing for one of the Mission teams. I guess he liked the boot so much that he stuck with it.

[JR Boucicaut 3802]

Today's inline boots will work in an ice setting.

Justin said that they are built to last longer than ice boots anyway.

It's kinda weird seeing Ovey with a clear visor. But not so much a Russian sweater.

Yeah... It's just not something I've seen at all on the pro/semi-pro level. And with spotting those today has made me think a bit. I was in need of an inline skate... and was also looking to buy AGX ice skates. I may even consider an Assassin, or Lieutenant skate and just swapping inline frames with the ice holder on my 90AG's, pop the roller frame on those.

[TBLfan 25]

I've seen someone on the flyers use a one95 stick... seems situational as I only see it occasionally, its a defenseman. I believe he uses it on the PP. No, it is not the silver one90 that one uses. It's retail colors.

Does Ovechkin have red steels?

[kovalchuk71 212]

No, its just his holders that are panted/dyed

[Balmer15 0]

Those shirts look pretty good...and the holders look amazing!
