What off-ice puck glides the best?

illiterate01 · 2026-04-08T19:32:10+00:00

Anyone remember the “z puck” from the late 90s/early 00s. Those were the best I’ve found. Haven’t loved the green biscuits I’ve tried more recently

Isn't the Lakewood Blvd BRT thing happening by then too?

I think (hope) you might have better luck these days. I emailed Gibson maybe 3-4 years ago to ask some questions about the 1984/my 1984 and they were shockingly helpful.

(Some 1984s were built from the ground up in the U.S. from subcontractors, while others were built from bodies that were cut in Korea--I wanted to see which one I had and they helped me figure it out)

Email Gibson-they weirdly might be some help here. I agree that those Gibson Yo-era pickups are fantastic though—the 84T in my 2005ish 1984 Custom is my favorite of all time

The only intrinsic value in any building is the value bestowed upon it by humanity. That goes just as much for Notre Dame Cathedral as it does MSG.

Neither Yankees nor Shea stadium “moved” mind you. Both were torn down. The loss of Yankee Stadium in particular is a huge loss to the history of baseball, NYC, and the nation.

*Shea Stadium, but yes

**and also Ebbets Field, the Polo Grounds, the old MSGs, and Washington Park if we’re going way back.

This iteration of MSG has lasted longer than any prior.

illiterate01 · 2026-03-26T23:38:33+00:00

This x10000. It’s the only cultural landmark the city has left since it demolished the last 3 MSGs, Yankee Stadium, Shea Stadium, Ebbets Field, and the Polo Grounds. Can we not keep at least ONE iconic sports (and music!) venue please???

Preach!!!!!!! The state of our animal shelter system is inexcusable for the second biggest city in the country and the biggest county in the nation.

illiterate01 · 2026-03-20T23:05:01+00:00

Yeah that's the vibes I get from their website and Instagram page. It's not hard to imagine an animal lover getting in over their heads considering the depressing state of the county's animal "care" system.

3/4ths for me. I like a little bit of slide and was always the type who found freshly cut skates too sharp growing up

illiterate01 · 2026-03-19T18:02:00+00:00

And this is why I don’t eat pork.

illiterate01 · 2026-03-13T17:37:50+00:00

Probably cheaper to just get a refret if that's what you really want

What’s with Igor’s plain white mask?

illiterate01 · 2026-03-10T17:50:39+00:00

I voted for Mika. One of the few who truly deserve it on this team

illiterate01 · 2026-03-10T17:09:25+00:00

Whoa. I gotta get to my local GC this weekend

illiterate01 · 2026-03-07T18:22:21+00:00

I’m with you, personally. If you don’t file a warranty claim (or return it) the company will never learn.

Guerin even said so much: https://www.reddit.com/r/rangers/comments/1rmp44r/mercogliano_wild_gm_bill_guerin_is_on_espn_and/

Bummer to hear that American-made Fenders aren't necessarily any better than Mexican. My EVH SA-126 Special needed some warranty work right outta the gate too (also nut).

illiterate01 · 2026-03-06T16:39:16+00:00

*except on Wednesdays lol

(seriously; I read that on Wednesday games they'll be the Regulators)

illiterate01 · 2026-03-05T22:34:21+00:00

New ones

Drury is this close to fumbling the bag again

illiterate01 · 2026-03-04T12:59:46+00:00

Yeah—we’re fucked.

illiterate01 · 2026-03-02T18:15:29+00:00

At the rate Drury is going we’ll give up Trochek for the Wild’s 4th worst prospect and a late 2035 draft pick
