As a career back up, I'd like to wap this thread on the rear end with my glove hand say "good work," and then brood on the bench.

It was when I was on a pretty competetive traveling peewee team that I was the second stringer, and even then I played more than half the games because the No. 1 had another club.

If/when I start up again, I'll have my own team.

Oh false alarm, upon closer inspection they're not all that sexy. They're kind of Kings-ish actually.

I thought they were primarily blue with black and white highlights :smith:
I really dig his new helmet. I don't know what is on the other side, but assuming it is the same I think it is great, not over thought, nice and simple with good execution.



Oh, I was really disappointed that the Wolverine mask didn't have his side burns.

Wow. How are you gonna do that? I'd like to see 'in-progress' pics too, in case I want to try my hand at that. Good luck. :)

I've got a friend who puts stickers on airplanes for a living, stuff like the official ID numbers on the tails and aesthetic stuff like stripes and the plane's name in cursive on the nose. Basically like putting decals on a model, but life size. I was thinking of commissioning her to make something for me, but I don't know what.

Part of being a goalie is being obsessed with minutia, like toe straps and stick taping.

In that spirit, what do you think is the best number?

I say #1. as it is the only number exclusively for us.

What is the story with Jonas Hiller's gear? I thought Koho got folded into CCM and then CCM into Reebok a while ago. And all that before the Ducks current color scheme. The pads look like 580s, and the mitts something I don't recognize.


I should really be doing my homework instead of thinking about hockey equipment.

Edit: for pic.

These are awesome. Seriously, being a goalie is like golfing or being a street pimp in 1974, the more ridiculous your get-up the better.

Oh, I am not arguing, I meant that the camo was so effective at tricking the eye it looks like he changes them to match his home and road jerseys. It was a lovely joke.

I always wanted Luongo to do pink pads when he was in Florida.

Good point, maybe it is supposed to be crease camo.

It still looks terrible.

#16 on a goalie? What the gently caress? I was so loving disgusted by this picture I had to lookp up the Panthers' roster to find out who this heretic was. Imagine my relief when I went to their website and found out it was just because some baseball guy died or something.

Phew... That could have been terrible.
