Something's wrong here

This is pretty weird, this is a pic from a game between Canada and Switzerland in the Loto Cup (held in Slovakia) today, and something just isn't right... this can't be too common, can it? I've never seen it myself at least.

This is really weird. A koho + a Sherwood glove

I think Adam Oates has done the same thing in the past!

Seen it once or twice. Not in a level that high though.

I've heard of players with broken hands using older gloves that they've cut up to make them fit over the cast. Jon Waibel of the Gophers did it after he punched the glass after a hat-trick. He had a M-1 glove on one hand and an old Bauer Supreme on the other. Just my theory on this.

First time I saw 4 posts in 1 minute in the same thread.

maybe his glove fell off so he grabbed some1 elses from teh bench

[Kovy_Ribs_Fedo 3]

That's what I thought at first...

I've seen a guy from the team I watch in Scotland wear different gloves. He did it for half a season though - he had some dodgy looking orange/black Eagles, then changed one....

>>>HERE<<< is a photo of him.

He most likely does not have any sort of sponsorship deal with a company and therefore is trying to wear the widest variety of products available to attract a company and get a deal. This is very common in other sports, for example on any given night in the NBA you'll always see at least one player wearing two different brands of shoes on each foot (i.e. one Reebok and one Nike) in order to attract a shoe deal.

The theory about grabbing someone elses glove from the bench sounds reasonable, it's funny though about the other player from Cunndies team if he did it for such a long time, must be some idea he had to show off or something. Personally I've never seen it with gloves, the closest would be seeing a few guys using different colored skate blades, like one white and one black blade.

I doubt it is that. There are very few endorsers in hockey anyway.

Probably for the same reason some guys wear longer elbow pads on one arm; he gets slashed there the most, so he wants more protection. That would be my guess.

[Fletch 219]

I'm going with the cast theory.

Looks like a huge difference in size between the two.

A while back I used to do pretty much the same thing. I'd wear a Bauer Supreme glove on my top hand 'cause I'd get whacked a lot, then a bilt rite works on my bottom hand 'cause it was broken and and I could take it off and put it on the stick as though I wasn't wearing a glove.

I remeber Chris Simon wearing two different gloves a few years back for quite a while. He was still with the Caps then, I think one Easton and one Eagle if I remember right. No idea why though.

ive had to do it when i forgot one glove. Maybe one of his gloves somehow got cut or ripped and he didnt have another pair. lol

[Sniper407 0]

my coach does that with TPS and Muskoka... when i asked him why he just said cause the feel different for his top and bottom hand... i guess you want more grip on one of the hands or protection... i dunno it is weird

Koho looks twice as big. He has tape on his left ankle but none that I see on the right. Different too I guess.

[Chadd 916]

Jagr used to use two different Koho gloves, one nylon and the other was leather.

[all-star 0]

maybe he lost a pair. and borrowed someone elses.

i'm thinking he wants more mobility with the top hand, so he has a bigger, looser glove. that and it's probably quicker to get it off during a fight :D
