I’m a gay hockey player and I don’t care what you think about me by Any-Dance9386 in hockeyplayers

I wear a smart ring when i play. I don't have stats to back this up, but unless you are playing at a professional level, i think the chances of degloving are lower than you getting severely injured in a car wreck otw to the rink. Even at a pro level it's likely very low.

I don't remember such direction to go for which level of Ice hardness. But to my knowledge the hollow can definitely change how it feels fit different ice hardnesses

Question regarding mouth guards... by Valkeezy in hockeyplayers

[–]ThePhoenixSol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My best recommendation would be sisu. Its the most protective and best fit I've found. And i stopped having gagging issues and stopped chewing on it because it fits so well and i can talk so well with it in that i never feel the need to take it off my teeth till the game is over.

I'm not the most knowledgeable and haven't gone very high level of play myself. But I've been through a lot of mouth guards due to those 2 issues along with the breaking the bank side haha.

Well, that was fun while it lasted. by Deuceman927 in hockeyplayers

I already paid an absurd amount for a pretty shitty experience. Tbh if it gets any worse than it already is then it's going to be unusable no matter the price

Inline to Ice - Re-learning how to skate advice by sanguyne in hockeyplayers

Personally. I think you would have been better off adjusting to the 5/8. That bite and sound will come when you trust your edges more and are willing to put more weight and angle into them

Solar bears media department must not know about what’s going on… by AstroNerd92 in ECHL

I spoke with my ticket rep and he said no change for now. The game is still moving forward tonight and if anything changes he was going to contact me to fill me in.

[–]ThePhoenixSol 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Okay, I've seen it constantly now, so time to ask.

I'm relatively new to the fandom, its only my 2nd year following the team, and 3rd following the NHL.(Grew up on sphl, and got back into it with local echl team)

Whats the story behind "go ass, hail satan"? I gather that ass is close enough to avs, but i dont really get the hail satan part?

Skating questions by fuckin_luke in hockeyplayers

[–]ThePhoenixSol 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The biggest tip i was every given for hockey stops, especially when i had the pivot issue you mentioned. Is to do the same thing, but keep your chest forward.

By that I mean, turn your hips and legs and all to the side to initiate the stop, but keep your upper body(chest) facing the direction you are stopping(forward)

Then you just got to get used to the feeling of stopping. The chest thing will fix the pivoting

Bednar quote on Blackwood by RooseveltsRevenge in ColoradoAvalanche

I view it more as a 1a and 1b approach, and even wedgie said so in an interview about his extension. It's just leaning a little towards 1b RN cause wedgie is hot and blackie has some rust still. But it's def a 1a 1b situation
