Changing to Tongue with more padding?

Recommended Posts

I have taken a few shot off my total's and I sure as hell feel it. top of ankle side of ankle and it all hurts. About to get a pair of fenders myself. I am not getting paid to play so I might as well protect myself

Major advantage of the fenders is the confidence to step into the shooter. I have played in mine 3 times...and it is changing the way I react to stepping up on the D man (playing the wing now). As soon as the puck is pushed to the blue line...I am skating right up to the D and getting right in the way with no hesitation. I must have blocked 5 shots last night doing that without thought. It really is great peace of mind...especially when you do take that first shot to the ankle and feel next to nothing.
