Noticed a lot of Rangers wearing foot protection now. Wonder if it has to do with what McDonagh dealt with?

Rick Nash wearing CCM gloves last night. I thought he would be in Winwell's forever.

I noticed the same thing watching the game last night.

[OldCY 94]

Yeh I wonder what the deal is there. Did you notice Mac also using a CX last two games?

[A2rhino 62]

You should start seeing more of this as ShotBlocker has now developed a clear model of their blockers rather than the dark ones that hid the vendor names on the skates.

Any idea what Zuc is skating in?

Looks like a Nexus 7000.

X90:ish dressed as Nexus 7000.

I like to call it the Napor 7000, Bauer's 3rd-best looking skate ever, after the one95 and one90.

I think there was a bunch for sale on eBay last year if I remember correctly

I agree, skate looks incredible, but w the Vapor fit

[Harv 86]

Simmon in Warrior is new?

Warrior announced today he is apart of the ''family''.

[A2rhino 62]

Just found some pics of the skate. Yes indeed its a Vapor APX2 or X90 with 7000 graphics. Very cool looking skate.

Mark Stone also in Warrior gear in the preseason. Was previously with Bauer, still listed as a Bauer athlete though.

I think St. Louis had the same thing last season.

[mjpisat 36]

Is zetterberg in these now too?

[aviery 11]

I had this exact thought after having a look through the photo-reel yesterday.

Vapor Nexus Hybrid?

[nicker87 47]

Yep if you look close you can see the vapor ribs running around the back of the skate

[nisselrm 21]

The skates are called the nexus 7000 v-cut.

I have them. They are X90s dressed as nexus 7000s.

These Skates are available to guys (like myself) who prefer the traditionally lasted vapors over the composites.

Hope this helps.

Why are they called traditionally lasted? Aren't they constructed the same way, just out of different materials: tech-mesh (which is nylon, right?) versus CURV (some kind of polypropylene weave)? I'm just going off of the videos showing the Bauer skate construction process on the traditional supremes versus the APX, and the only step that really looks different is the robot cutting the quarter panel piece. After that, it looks like the same production the rest of the way through.

[nisselrm 21]

Composite Bauer skates use the 3D last process. Search around and you'll find info on it.

So it's a custom order?

[JR Boucicaut 3801]

Yes.

I just submitted a pair yesterday.

[A2rhino 62]

what is the difference in the last between the comp. and the traditional Vapor? Is it a different fit? If so, what's different?

[All Flash 49]

Let's re-phrase......what is the fit difference between a 3d last(alive comp) and a traditional last?(techmesh)
