I noticed the other night that Killorn's had a Bauer sticker on it too. And aren't Stralman's gloves rebranded Easton std 4 rolls with shotblockers?

Yes, NHL (or Bauer) was quicker to get people in Bauer branded gloves before the helmets.

Anyone notice Easton e900 (I think that's the model) helmets being branded as Bauer? Interesting since most Easton helmets just got unbranded, but Anton Stralman has Bauer on his

 

Edit: found a picture

they've been doing this since at least december, i made a post about steve ott wearing the e400 rebranded

[the iceman 132]

E400 was one of my favorite helmets. I'd get the E400 if it was back as a Bauer branded helmet like when the Cooper HH3000 became the Bauer and Nike Bauer helmets.

What am I looking at? I assume either the VH or the jersey number but you haven't specified.

Sorry, the VH skates.

Forget Ho-Sang, what the hell is Boychuk looking at?

[xstartxtodayx 343]

What's with the helmet being up so high?  I had to do a google search to make sure he didn't have a very odd shaped head (or a man-bum tucked up there) but it looks like he just wears a small helmet that doesn't come down far enough.

 

Oh and for anyone following the Rangers, I noticed McDonagh switched from his old Easton sticks to a CCM stick the past couple of games (maybe longer but I just noticed a couple of games ago).

Iggy trying out a VH skate, usually in CCM. Quick is the only other player on the Kings in VH. Also looks like Bauer cuff roll Easton gloves, was in CCM with the AVs and first couple of games with the Kings.

I noticed the gloves after his OT winner. Just too lazy to screenshot.

Looks nice. Didn't like the aesthetics of the original 1S or MX3.

[XS222 25]

Brad Marchand slowly making the change to Warrior

[nutters 218]

[enis750 48]

anyone have any pics of the inside of the elbow pads yet?

wondering if they have those stupid "donut-hole" thingies to hold you elbow in place

I hated that it was a big hole in there, it did nothing but hurt my elbow after leaning on it for a period of time (Ultra Tacks line I mean)

 

they do look sweet tho 

 

[PaulieWalnuts 5]

When is the new CCM stuff coming?

Those Super Tacks shoulder pads look interesting., I'll be keen to see the specs/reviews.

[Cavs019 708]

Looks like they're finally bringing the extended forearm to retail. Jofa DNA...

[gosinger 122]

It looks way shorter than the 8k extended forearm though, sort of "in between".

Europeans were treated to the "20k long" at retail :)

I think the length will be perfect (for me anyways)

the 8k's were way too long

but the Ultra Tacks were a bit short, they may have gotten it right w these

assuming they fix the donut thing inside the elbow pad and make it a deep fit like the Jofa/RBK's were

The elbow pocket in the 20k was awesome. I thought I'd prefer one with a donut, but after breaking it in, which took surprisingly little time, they're the most mobile and comfortable elbows I've ever worn. If it wasn't broke and now it is, put it back where it was.
