What do you drink on the bench?

[coryroth24 15]

Water? Gatorade? Diluted Gatorade? Mix of the two? Just curious. Going to my first, serious tournament I've played in since Midgets 8 years ago. Just want to be ready. Doesn't help that it'll be in Vegas!

Diluted Gatorade if I'm feeling serious. Coffee if it's a 6am cold morning shinny. Water, too.

Either water or two scoops of Gatorade powder in a water bottle (it mixed up about 20 bottles worth for about $4 instead of wasting money on the bottled stuff).

I drink well water.

I used to go to a drop in where some guy in a Yzerman jersey would suck down a 2-liter of Mt. Dew in an hour...

His teeth were all brown and needle-like.

Oddly enough, I don't drink anything on the bench. At most, I will have one mouthful of water, and that only if I'm out there for most of the game. For some reason, my body isn't telling me to drink between shifts.

After the game, I'm like a camel though.

scotch

Black or Green Label?

Bud Light... need something with a lot of water to keep hydrated

Water and Pedialyte.

I used to have Gatorade before the skate...and water on the bench...but too often I'm the only guy who brings any water...so now...I bring a G to the bench. Most guys will leave that alone.

Half a scoop of Gatorade in a quart of water. So, diluted Gatorade.

And get the powder. $10 for a giant can that lasts forever.

Water all the time. Beer some of the time. Gatorade when I forget my water bottle.

And the $10 can makes six gallons, which is about 50% more for 50% less money.

Diluted gatorade. If I don't water it down it will give me a stomach ache when I'm playing.

Don't drink too much water on the bench. I'll have a few sips mix it in my mouth and spit it out. In between periods I have a blue powerade and after the game.

I usually don't drink too much water on the bench, if I do my stomach feels all watery and doesn't feel very good when I play. I usually squirt water in my mouth and drink about half and spit the other half out.

Actually I do <_< lolol

[sectachrome 40]

I usually just take a sip of water or two everytime I come off. Lately Ive been drinking a Gatorade after playing. I cant imagine drinking beer when actually playing, I think Id yarf.

I can only drink high quality H2O. Don't see how people can drink Gatorade/Powerade when they play... it makes me want to hurl!
