TBLfan 25 Report post Posted February 16, 2008 Yeah but I just quit my job. I gave away one pair, and sold two pair already. Then I have one90/9Ks that I'm trying to get rid of and x-50, and supreme 70s that I plan on keeping. I've got a custom glove on the way and am planning on another pair... all while keeping an eye out on ebay for a pair of 14.5" easton polys. Yeah... we both need help.

Zamboni 6 Report post Posted March 29, 2008 Play twice a week, take my kids to 2 stick&pucks....twice a month get both kids to outside instruction so their on ice with someone besides dad. Coach one kids team, 1-2 games a week and about 2.5 hours of practise ice. Help out when needed with youngers team, another 1-2 games and 2.5 hours practise ice. Usually run a weeknight class as main instructor, another hour on ice.Just booked spring/summer ice, Sunday 7:30am.....nobody will book 6:30 time slot so we'll always be on ice by 7am....15 kids who don't care if you were up late saturday night.10 year old convinced me to sign him up for a spring 3x3 team-not sure how to tell my wife.

Abbieshockey20 1 Report post Posted March 29, 2008 Before I joined MSH I thought it was foolish to have more than one of each piece of equipment. Except for sticks of course, I've always been a stick whore. Now, I'm considering some custom warrior gloves, vapor XXXX gloves, even more sticks, and probably a new helmet. I love being a gear whore though. Probably won't once I have bills to pay though :P . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cavs019 708 Report post Posted March 29, 2008 TBL are those the red/white Canada Sakic-esque Z-Airs? :o Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TBLfan 25 Report post Posted March 29, 2008 Lightning colors. Wish I could grab the team canada gloves, but I'm definitely NOT complaining. Never seen anyone with them besides Richards. Big thanks to Drew for the heads-up!How sick would THOSE be! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Abbieshockey20 1 Report post Posted March 29, 2008 Yeah, those gloves are so nice. I would love to snag a pair, but there aren't too many around anymore. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MLSman 22 Report post Posted March 29, 2008 Probably won't once I have bills to pay though :P .When you have more money...it only gets worse dude. 3 pairs of Vapor XXXX skates, two full bags of gear, about 8 pair of gloves, 15 practice jerseys...you get the picture. Seriously just spent $200 on a pair of PPF Eagles pro stock, ordered two more CP92 pro stock gloves for $450, and just snatched a pair of Vapor XXX Toronto gloves for $125. It sure beats being addicted to drugs or alcohol...but can be more expensive! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
