$50 worth of shintape. Goes quicker than you'll realize.

Don't forget extra laces.

[hockeyplaya97 0]

$50 straight up.

[Drewhunz 3]

If you're getting laces, spend the extra $2 and get Graf waxed laces. The pair I'm using now are 6 months old and going strong.

You can never go wrong with a gift certificate to the LHS, or sportchek.

I don't know your mother-in-law but depending on .........., ask her to buy a new Hockey Jock. A pair of Shock Doctor or the brand of choice can be bought for under $50 easy. And she will have a story to tell for a long time.

$50 Ebay voucher, think about the possible bargins you could get, I almost scored a Vapor XX OPS yesterday for $45!

I work at the United Center....and at Comiskey Park(I refuse to use the "other"name still) and Soldier Field....look closely at my name....and you can figure out what I do there!

Good idea...but I really like supporting my LHS. I will buy there whenever possible.

I just started skating, so this may be dumb question.....why would i not want to us the velcro straps on my shins instead of tape?

[ScottMan 0]

^Most of the time those straps just aren't nearly strong enough to keep the shins from moving around. Also, if they do work, they usually stretch and stop working soon thereafter. Some people like making the pants tighter as a bonus too. Nobody needs pants flapping around.

[Drewhunz 3]

I use Jofa shins. They don't have any velcro at all. Strictly a tape only product since I hate shin sleeves.

Tape is another good reason for you younger guys to date nurses (they're having a uniform is another) Tape(Sansi?) from the ER tears easily sideways but does not tear/stretch when pulled lengthwise-great stuff. The nurses always have a 1/2 roll or 2 in pockets at end of shifts....

Replacement set of steel.

(NBH users will appreciate this more than others)

LOL....My wife is a nurse, and that is the stuff I use on my son's socks to keep them up!

I think we have a winner...That is a great idea.
