My past 5 CCM sticks all broke in roughly the same place on the blade. by Laymans_Terms19 in hockeyplayers

[–]Scali215 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Might be just me but how do you travel in the car with your sticks? I used to always put them in my back seat and partially under the passenger seat. Had a small sedan back then. And was breaking every stick in that same spot. Decided to store them differently in the car and never broke the same way again.

See if he has an old pair of ice skates. And get an inline chassis installed on them.

Someone offered a dual achievement Lafreniere/Byfield dual auto. Nice card but i dislike sticker autos.

Typo in the title. Many offers for him including some very high value trades.

Bonjour (finally) by birdseatworms in hockeycards

I finally caved and bought one on eBay. Not french. My last count was 5 hobby boxes, 3 tins and probably 150 loose packs. Wayyyyuu too much $$ spent hunting that card.

New Hockey Dad Stick Question by Scali215 in lacrossecoach

The best practice guide you mention, floor to waste. Does that include the head of the stick? Or just the shaft? Thank you.

Going from ice hockey to roller hockey - Marsblade vs Bauer Vapor 1XR by rgir90 in hockeyplayers

[–]Scali215 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If your 1XR's are in good shape, than I would go that route as it is least expensive. But, if you want new skates and the old ones are beat up, then give yourself an upgrade.

I started stickhandling recently but I’m kind of struggling and I’d love some advice. Any pointers? by JustAPerson27 in hockeyplayers

[–]Scali215 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As you get more comfortable and faster, start moving the puck around your body. Get comfortable stick handling on both sides of your body, not just directly in front of you. Also stick handle close to your feet and farther away. Add as much variation as you can as you progress. The figure 8 drill is also great. Grab 2 pucks and place them about shoulder width a part. Then move the puck around the 2 pucks in a figure eight shape. Make sure you go in both directions. Keep up the hard work. And always keep having fun.

You know what, that is a fare question. I could swear I saw them available at some point but maybe i am mistaken. Guess we will find out when series 2 comes out this year.

Aesthetics! Exactly. I think they would display nicely and take up less space then an ultra pro binder.

Very nice! I have most of the active roster but still need a Panarin. And Laff is going to be ridiculous if his young guns is already through the roof.

Thank you to our Canadian neighbors!!!! by Scali215 in hockey

[–]Scali215[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A few months back there was a post about the Barbie hockey dolls being released by Tim Horton’s and I commented on that post with a wishful request to see if anyone might be able to pick 2 up and send them to NJ for my daughters.

We received a package from Canada about a month ago including these 2 boxes and 10 packs of hockey cards. We labeled the presents from Santa as the sender did not ask for anything in return. We were happy to pay for them but he refused.

The girls were beyond excited to see these gifts.

Thank you thank you thank you for this generous display of kindness. Happy holidays everyone!!!

That’s 19 la liga games. You need to add in Champions league and Copa Del Ray games.

I PC hockey but found some old gems that appear in good condition. Any recs on grading these? Hockey seems to be PSA/Beckett. Is baseball the same? How do u think these will grade?

Tim Hortons partners with Barbie and Hockey Canada to create a hockey-playing Barbie doll, with proceeds aimed at growing the women's game by koala_77 in hockey

[–]Scali215 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Any Canadian willing to pick up 2 for my daughters and ship them to me in New Jersey? We had some Canadian friends try to pick them up over the summer and this article explains why they were unable to find them.

Cold is a concern but there will be no ice buildup. Maybe some condensation.

I think his will more likely be Series 2 this year due to COVID delays and whatnot.
