Agree, those Grafs are for me the best looking skates ever. The all white with the white toe cap eventually look like someone did a bad spray paint job and it is coming off.

start_today 764 Report post Posted November 2, 2019 Shoulder patch looks a lot like that the weird bear/wolf Bruins shoulder patch of the 80s. Having the city name and team name feels like too many words. Maybe they could up the ante and white on white print the teams Wikipedia entry, the way the Slovak team did their national anthem for those Olympic jerseys. These would be mediocre adult league jerseys. To me, it’s super limp for an NHL jersey. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

shooter27 116 Report post Posted November 3, 2019 I like it as a sweatshirt/sweater for a fan to wear. That’s actually what I thought it was at first. Not so much as a jersey but will reserve judgement till I see the full package 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

marka 526 Report post Posted November 6, 2019 Howdy, I think for every throwback jersey, they should be required to have a throw ahead one. Like Buck Rogers styling cues or whatever. Mark 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

xstartxtodayx 343 Report post Posted November 7, 2019 I don't get the cream shells... why not tan to match the gloves? Or at least swap the white on the jersey/socks for cream to match the shell? Reminds me of a mis-matched Beer League uniform. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I do love the jersey though. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IPv6Freely 2091 Report post Posted November 8, 2019 Yeah if they were going to use cream shells they should have made all the white on the jersey and socks cream instead. That would have been super sharp, especially if done in felt. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ParabolicActivity 48 Report post Posted November 11, 2019 I noticed William Nylander has the Supreme ADV graphics on his stick yesterday. Is he actually using that model or is it just a wrap to promote the stick? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

OR at $350 +Tax per stick, have people hit the limit on what they'll pay for a stick? I mean, I broke another stick last night, that I got on blow-out clearance from PSH, and it made me angry. If I had paid $350 for it I probably would have been in tears. Edited November 11, 2019 by JoeyJ0506 GRAMMAR Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't know if the fantom qre was limited, but there are still a lot in many stores. And I saw some Vapor ADVs as late as this January. As mentioned, there is a limit people will pay.

At my LHS in Canada, taxes in the stick is $450. I got to hold one at the store a couple days ago, felt like any other sub-400 gram stick. The Sonic Boom taper just looks plain weird. The market for this stick, especially at that price point, is small. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's not like it has been out for a long time. I agree with the others that the price is ridiculous, but based on Bauer's other high end products, I bet it's a pretty good stick.

Honestly, at my skill level I can barley tell much of a difference between my Ribcore reckoner (fave stick) and the trigger 2 with the same specs I tried. I notice a difference between flex and kick point (I had a super and still have an ultra Tacks) and blade but really, I go for the clearance rack as I tend to be hard on sticks. I’ve heard durability issues with the first vapour adv and I can’t justify 450 dollars on a stick that may last me a season. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
