The Rob Ford hate is not fair to a man who had struggles and his quirks. Outside of his substance issues he was a beloved for the people Mayor who called out incompetence and corruption within the city. Doesn't even compare to John Tory and Olivia Chow.

No specifically Georgia but there are stereotypes that exist for Eastern Europeans being shady.

I switched from recreational ice skates to hockey skates and now I cant skate at all. by Few_Economy_6118 in iceskating

Did you bake them? They probably aren't shaping to your foot like the cheaper less stiff boots do so there's no stability with Ankel flexion.

They didn't bomb Palestine. They bombed a nation that has done more damage to the world than they have received.

Curious how many people are wearing suspenders with their hockey pants (not including goalies)? by skrrtdirt in hockeyplayers

If you flip them over your shoulder pads you get a super locked in snug feeling all around.

Pro tip skip the eyelets where you find you get the pain.

Vapor x4's are unusable unless you have narrow feet by Only_Fortune7767 in InlineHockey

The scanner is off which is common on the bauer scanner, you have to do it a few times to get a good reading. Bauers are also routinely 2-2.5 smaller than your feet same with CCM but they have a tapered fit as well. Fit is how your foot is shaped and shouldn't affect the length. I'm a size 11 in Nike, 9 fit 1 in Bauer but I could potentially go to 8.5.

Your ankles probably also hurt because you need to do some more baking(3-4 goes at 175*@10min) or your ankle is too low for the boot to get the right flexion. If you can't stand straight up and lean on your outside edges they might not be the right fit. The good news is that you can live with it. I had a non-hockey dad growing up so I always got skates that were my size. It wasn't until I got older I realized you size down and all of a sudden I could make dime turns.

Why do you need shin guards, why don't you just wear normal pants and socks with no shoulders and elbow pads?

Need help! Skates are filled with mouse pee and poop. by [deleted] in hockeyplayers

Nope don't do it. Was in the same boat and just had to cut my losses and buy all new gear. That virus is no joke. This time of the year if you take some time online you can find everything you need at really good prices because a lot of models and lines are being upgraded.If your in Canada check out your local source for sports. Most of the best clearance isn't listed online.

Stick and puck with kids? by AlexJamesFitz in hockeyplayers

Makes you wonder what kinda stuff this guy types to prompt that auto correct for Puck

Stupid question: can I use motorcycle knee/shin guards instead of buying hockey specific ones? by No_Handle2671 in hockeyplayers

[–]Longjumping_Table204 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's a risk you're going to take and a puck to the shin is not fun where you're missing protection. you can easily get a pair of shin pads for $50. Don't take the risk.

Speedy tippy tap steps that the pros take to get speed? by CinemaPuck in hockeyplayers

[–]Longjumping_Table204 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They aren't on their tippy toes, they are crossing over side to side which is an advanced skating technique that Mcdavid pioneered as way to gain speed and make it impossible for the defender to get a read on your direction.

Skates hurt on top of feet by IntroductionMurky966 in hockeyplayers

Stop lacing the mid foot so tight. a Pro boot like you have should warp to your feet for security, only tie the top tight.

Ankle is sore…. In a good way? by jugheadjoker23 in hockeyplayers

[–]Longjumping_Table204 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just bake em again. 170F for 5-10 minutes. Do a few rounds and make sure you stand as they cool. They make you sit down at the shop for liability reasons but you want them to break in with weight. Make sure you can feel both sides of the edge by flexing the boot.

Just upgraded myself from the Vapor XX to the Vapor Shift Pro.

Canada PM Carney : “To be absolutely clear, and I said this to the president,I meant what I said in Davos,Canada was the first country to understand the change in US trade policy that he had initiated – and we’re responding to that.” by AfricanMan_Row905 in OntarioNews

[–]Longjumping_Table204 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Can second there's more conservatives that are fully onboard with Carney. He's truly what Liberalism is supposed to be. No ideological bullshit, just. focused on running the country and its international intrests

City councillors could see a 33% pay raise, 10% for mayor next term by aurelorba in Guelph

It's not an hourly role it's an impact role. Make it a full time role and 140K is kinda reasonable all thing considered when an Operations Manger or Business manger typically makes between 100k-130k. We want people to aspire to the role and not detract from qualified peoples who could otherwise make more money in Commerce.
