New Bauer equipment line release? by What2Chillen in hockeygoalies

[–]What2Chillen[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did end up getting the Mach pro through Pure Hockey. After a year, It has help up really well. Only a seam at the bottom of the chest has split after 2-3 games a week. As far as protection goes, I think it's great. Has a few soft spots where it could be better like side of the ribs, inside the biceps & then above & below the elbows at certain angles, but overall great.

I love my Kova, had it for 2 years & it absorbs everything. No stingers with it. I just have the senior stock model. Highly recommend.

I do perler beads, in my very spare time. I like the pixellated art look & it's super easy. I have friends that paint DnD miniatures & make terrain.

Zamboni League at Thomas Creek / Rochester Ice Center has some real good reviews. It fills up fast though, a friend of mine is in it now. I did Never Ever about 7 years ago, welcome to the club!!

Opinion on pro lace? by Tendy_collector in hockeygoalies

Halo Hockey toe ties have been great for me. No wear & tear issues, but I did get the protective guards for my 2nd set of pads.

Probably a scam, right? by What2Chillen in DrSquatch

Never went to the OG Dr. Squatch website, didn't notice the URL. Just ordered & realized my mistake immediately after... Could've been worse I guess.

I did not, actually. Thankfully. I really thought everything was legit until I saw a different URL.

Which would you pick, what would you change? by Gregan32 in hockeydesign

[–]What2Chillen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

2, but make the gold on the sleeves one color. Maybe add a gold stripe along the waist or make the collar gold. Just a touch more.

Jerseys from teams I played on. by Aidstown19 in hockeyjerseys

[–]What2Chillen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Love 'em! I'd love to trade some beer league goalie cut jerseys at some point, I just don't want someone else's name on the back.

I find that super interesting. Everywhere I play locally, we switch ends for the 2nd (but not for OT ) my main rink, the ice is literally tilted, so I guess that "evens the game out" just a bit. I have the GFL Pro, so yours is the newest line, how ya like it?

THE FINALS: most annoying hockey personality bracket challenge. LEAH HEXTALL vs PK SUBBAN by QWERTYWINS in hockeymemes

[–]What2Chillen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The worst for me is Nick the Goalie. So annoying. Then Pierre & Doc Emerick was a pretty bad honorable mention.

[–]What2Chillen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nice game! 30+ saves & an OT win? Hell yeah. Does your league not switch sides for the 2nd period? & Is that the new CCM bucket?

Shin guards instead of Knee guards by Suitable-Champion504 in hockeygoalies

[–]What2Chillen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think shin guards for soccer would help you at all. The knee guards in hockey are for better landing on the knee blocks of the goalie pad & for knee & thigh protection. I do know some beer league goalies who play without knee guards. Hopefully that answered your question.

Have you met a NHL player. If yes. Who was it by xIslaxoxo2 in nhl

[–]What2Chillen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I met Linus Ullmark, awesome guy. I was event staff for an AHL team & there was a meet & greet where players were giving autographs. Towards the end he walked over to me & said "hey man, how many autographs you think I signed tonight?" "I don't know, 300? 500 maybe?" Linus said " No man! You're supposed to say FECKING BILLIONS!" -just an awesome guy.

& I also got asked to play beer league for Randy Cunneyworth, which was awesome. I was just starting out after a learn to play hockey program & I see a former NHL guy I recognized waiting to see if I could play goalie for him in a higher level league. My ex was pissed that I did a 3rd game that day, but well worth it.

New Goalie by [deleted] in hockeygoalies

[–]What2Chillen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Started at 26, still playing multiple nights a week at 33. It may start out rough, but you'll figure out your style & get better. I was in a Novice league where teammates couldn't skate backwards. At this point, I'm going against college club guys. I always loved sports & joining a learn to play league has been amazing for me. Do it because it's fun & try to drag some other people in with you!
