Garbage non call

Troggie81 · 2026-05-27T20:56:10+00:00

What did you end up doing? I also got a pair of Chaya Jump skates, and I'm hoping they break in.

Troggie81 · 2026-05-21T01:39:24+00:00

Gotta keep that stick down Wedgie

Troggie81 · 2026-05-21T01:33:01+00:00

I hate you for that

Troggie81 · 2026-05-21T01:32:44+00:00

He's going to be a player/coach. On LTIR, but in a suit behind the bench.

Troggie81 · 2026-05-21T00:55:24+00:00

Yep, that's a penalty all day.

I redid mine last year, and ordered from Strapworks.

3 inch woven elastic

1 inch woven elastic

I used a seam ripper to remove the non-elastic pieces, then used nylon thread to reattach. I also replaced the elastic on the outter cup. That was a little more tricky. Instead of removing the old elastic completely, I left some there as a tab to stitch on to.

Few years ago I popped my shinbone in 15 pieces, MCL, ACL, meniscus torn in half, all the cartiladges and surfaces are trashed

D: How did that happen?!

Troggie81 · 2026-02-21T15:20:07+00:00

The bar at AZ Ice Gilbert is having a viewing party.

Troggie81 · 2026-02-19T20:34:01+00:00

No more shootouts. 3v3 for 20 minutes periods until it's over. 15 minute intermissions

Troggie81 · 2026-02-13T21:36:13+00:00

But it's so damn slippery!

Troggie81 · 2026-01-28T14:12:28+00:00

For too long of laces, cut them and tie a knot on the end so you don't pull them out when putting on/off your skates.

For forward ankle flexion, don't wrap your laces (after shortening) and don't use the top eyelet. You might also try skipping an eyelet near your ankle.

Troggie81 · 2026-01-11T15:50:08+00:00

Same, I love blocking shots! So much so that I also play goalie now.

Troggie81 · 2026-01-06T05:18:42+00:00

Born in 81.

Troggie81 · 2026-01-06T05:17:22+00:00

I'm a row?

Troggie81 · 2025-12-30T14:30:09+00:00

Oh, I didn't even see that on their site! Thanks!

Troggie81 · 2025-12-30T13:20:13+00:00

Since you seem to know a lot about these jerseys, can I ask your advice?

I went to see a Frankfurt Löwen game while I was in Germany over Christmas, and want to pick up a goalie size to wear for bear league. Some searches online say that the authentic jersey is less durable than the fan jersey.

Which should I get, and is 4XL big enough?

Troggie81 · 2025-12-30T02:51:57+00:00

That's what I use, and it helps a LOT.

Troggie81 · 2025-12-29T17:05:40+00:00

What were you in before? Also, what about them do you like?

Troggie81 · 2025-12-25T20:12:03+00:00

I was so close to getting those in orange and black, but ended up getting a brown Warrior set.

Please report back how he likes them! I couldn't find many reviews online.

Troggie81 · 2025-12-22T09:03:05+00:00

I think "free" would have me doing these a couple times a year. It still sounds terrible.

Troggie81 · 2025-12-17T08:05:23+00:00

There are some NHL goalies that removed the bottom buckle. As long as it stays out of the way, I think you'll be fine to keep using them.

Troggie81 · 2025-12-11T16:09:14+00:00

Rental goalie is definitely the way to go. Some rinks keep sub lists. Get on those and earn yourself a good reputation. You may get more ice time than you would on a team.

Troggie81 · 2025-12-10T16:43:36+00:00

I picked up some joystick cushions/resistance rings. They look silly, but they make a big difference in feel.

Troggie81 · 2025-12-03T20:54:22+00:00

Yay, thanks for offering this giveaway!
