You have to actually play to get concussions. sellouts posted:We had a full time goalie skate out for one of the first times. We don't care. Skill levels will be varied and don't really matter to me or anyone that went. Especially if it was enough to put together 2 teams there's going to be variations. Also if we play in a real tournament we will get our asses kicked because that's what happens when you play against guys who grew up together and now work together at Tito's Auto Body Shop. It wasn't the first time I'd skated out... ...just the first time in a few years. Bradf0rd fucked around with this message at 20:20 on Jan 28, 2013 |

2 own-goals on back-to-back nights.  Won a faceoff in the defensive zone cleanly, so it had some zip on it coming back. Bounced off my D-man's skates and five-holed the goalie. I couldn't do anything but laugh and ask the ref for an assist.

Almost 4.5pt/game. That is an actual statline from some bro in Silver A here. The next closest person in the league has 47 points.

The curse continues. We lost, and I scored. It was a great goal, too. We were on the PP, and I was carrying the puck in with 3 defenders in front of me and one of our guys following me. I threw it up against the boards to the right of the net, my partner goes after it as I break for the net, he throws it to me just as I get in front, and I get it in the top right corner. I really need to throw it off the back boards more. I don't dump and chase nearly enough, and it results in way too many blocked shots.

The best outfit: skinny breezers, white skates, plaid jersey, and the helmet is a brand "you've probably never heard of". Actually, this reminds me. What's the current state of the art for breezers? I hate my RBK 5k setup. I had some CCM's that I loved back in the day, but they looked like hammer pants and didn't have much protection. waffle enthusiast fucked around with this message at 18:01 on Jan 30, 2013 |

There's a new guy showing up at my Thursday clinic lately, and he wears a hoodie and sweatpants out on the ice. He looks completely ridiculous and I can't imagine it's comfortable at all to spend two hours sweltering in that getup, but he doesn't seem to mind it. I will say he looks better than the garbage bags.. you know the guys who intentionally use the oldest shittiest gear they can find because I guess it makes them feel like more of a veteran. I'm all for a retro looking cage or shoulder pads, but when the holes in your socks are big enough to drive a truck through and your pants look like they got fed through a wood chipper maybe it's time to drop a few bucks on some new gear.

I wore sweat pants and a big ol' sweatshirt.I also didn't have gear, and couldn't skate long enough without falling to get a sweat up. Christ, even at open skate now I'll wear just a T-shirt...

After our last game, it was decided that I'm going to troll next Monday with pink laces, stick tape, and a tinted visor. If I'm going to be the douchiest player ever what else can I wear/do? I have to wear the team jersey, but the socks we bought are the shittiest ever and mine already have holes I can put my hand through. I'm pretty big as it is so I can't go big enough on the jersey to have something comically large. I was thinking white breezer covers if I can find them cheap enough and in time but I'm not sure what else. I'm open to suggestions! Years ago we used to wear pajama pants under our hockey pants and over our shins. I was thinking that's also pretty obnoxious, maybe?

I used to wear light sweat/ track pants as hockey socks before I broke down and just bought some of those kickin rad reebok socks. PS - those Reebok socks own.... gently caress wool socks forever, I don't have to tape the reebok ones.

Yeah, people really seem to hate sweatpants over shinguards. Using skate laces instead of tape will get you comments too. Hockey fashion is so loving ridiculous, it's what I imagine the fashion industry is like but for sports. You should also get those furry hockey gloves: http://www.rinky.com/pop_up_pages/rnky_furglove_.asp

I actually already have a blue with 69 on it from an inline team in high school. I wonder if it still fits at all. Definitely going pajamas over shins and I'll have to tape/lace if I'm not wearing socks. Personally, that's always felt annoying. Hockey socks keep my shins in place and let me move around in them without feeling tied down. I guess it's time to adjust. Bumblebee tape is a go as well. I've been trying to find as much video as I can of Esa Tikkanen talking on the ice... going to try to emulate it when I'm fighting with forwards in the slot. This is going to be so much fun! EDIT: Captain on my team mentioned that he used to play with a guy that would hoot and holler like he was riding a bull any time he got into a scrum on the boards. I'm thinking that'll be pretty effective. All this came about because it's become very obvious that refs make calls with complete and total bias and I have a kind of storypost about our last game where 30 seconds into the game when I took a stick to the face and shouted, "hey, is that kosher for tonight?" and the ref got right in my face and told me if I said another word all game he'd toss me. It went downhill from there. delpheye fucked around with this message at 20:08 on Jan 30, 2013 |
