Hockey equipment you got for Christmas

[matix218 11]

I looked to see if there was already a "what did you get for Christmas (hockey equipment related)" thread and I did not see one so I figured I would start.

I got a $200 gift card for Hockey Giant from my parents which I applied to a pair of the U+ Reloaded Pro skates (with the mail in to get the free U+ CL stick).

The reason I am posting this now is that they just came today (ordered them on Christmas day). I sent out the coupon but according to what CCM says I will have to wait 6-8 weeks to get the free stick in the mail :(

I am currently in the original U+ Pros on which the liner and outer material is falling apart and after looking at the reloadeds it is obvious that they have addressed these issues as the outside is hard and glossed over and the liner appears to be a shinier different (hopefully stronger) material as well. I loved the way the originals fit (minus the slightly loose heel which they also claim to have addressed with the new model claiming it has better heel lock) so I figured I would stick with the similar boot with the slight upgrades that CCM seems to have added.

I also got a hockey tul (tool) in my stocking which is basically a swiss army knife with tools specific to hockey equipment and a little case that has a side stone in it.

What did you other MSH members get?

I found the new Cascade M-11 helmet at my Pro Hockey Life Store and scooped it up. First I saw of it in Canada so I jumped before they sold out. It was going for $139.99 CDN. Very comfortable fit and my cage fits perfectly on it. Can't wait to try it out.
