its the same thing minus the box? i dont even notice it, maybe im not picky enough

[Rustpot 1]

Are my eyes hoopy, or is he skipping an eyelet in the forefoot?

He is indeed. On another note, is it just me or does the new logo on the front of the Reebok lids get on peoples nevres?

I'm fine with it. It's just a logo....

I skipped eyelets on my Vectors for pressure on my forefoot, skipped them on the Vapors because I was relacing them often (saves time and fingers) and wanted long tails to keep the top two eyelets laced but loose enough to get my foot out (like the Vectors are now). I just haven't gotten around to buying new, longer laces, though I'm pretty sure these are 120's.

Are his gloves actually taped up on the cuff?

Yes. He's been doing it off and on for a few years, if not longer.

The logo is nothing too hideous. If you can see it while playing you have a problem!

Yeah Malkins helmet is nice, Staal looks like he has one but with the swoosh still.

Plekanec's RM19 is painted black near the top part of his stick, which is usually white.

I was at the game so I didn't have the luxury of a close-up or replay....but looks like Alexander Semin of the Capitals is sporting Vapor XXXX skates now, instead of his customary and long-used XXXs. Perhaps he has finally shifted over? Anyone that saw the game, can you confirm?

[AHF 1]

Torspo gloves, Torspo stick:

[interpathway 9]

And Brooksie is in XXXX gloves...Something tells me that is new, I believe he was in Eastons last year.

He is also back to his tried and true (20 goal scorer) Warrior from last year, great to see. I hate the S17.

[phunky_monkey 6]

I dig the gloves in that colour scheme. Look great considering I don't think XXXX's look crash hot

Semin has been sporting the XXXX skate for quite a while...one of the first group of players to sport them last year.

I'm sorry this is a bit off topic, but Ovie looks like a homeless bum in that pic. I guess you could say a very rich homeless bum. Sorry, back to the thread.

Although I don't know what model he wore, Laich used NBH gloves for most of last year too.

[CapsFan 5]

Laich was in XXXs last year.

Is Kessel still using an int. stick?

[AnthonyJTa 0]

Every time I see it typed out all silly like that, I hear this aweful Speak N Spell voice in my head saying "Ba-uu-eeerrrr"

It's not typography class.

[VakarLajos 5]

Is Kessel still using an int. stick?

As far as I know Kessel does use an intermediate stick.

he used to when he was on team usa, but i havent kept up with him since then and that was a few years ago.

Looks like Teemu upgraded from the sickick.

Unfortunately, he lasted on 16 seconds in last night's game against Edmonton before suffering a left thigh laceration. Scary moment and I wish him a speedy recovery. We need you Teemu!
