Yay: Evergreen Lake has been open for a few weeks and I already have something like six hours out on the ice. Boo: lacebite  Anyone doing the PBR tourney in Feb? I'm debating between this and heading down to Silverton for a few days.

These are old skates. not really worried about preventing it in the future; I've picked up another bungapad. I also don't usually have a problem, I just exacerbated it after skating for three straight hours two weeks ago. More trying to figure out how to get this poo poo to go away. It's been two weeks and it's still tender in spots.

Intervals. Hockey is an anaerobic sport. Push 250 watts for 60 seconds, then do a 2 minute recovery at 100 watts. Repeat 10 times.

If you play defense in midget or above: you would usually be left D, so your stick is positioned best in relation to the play in the defensive zone. If you play below midget, or are in beer league: you'll usually play "somewhwere between one of their guys and the net, if possible." Lookup defensive responsibilities, there are good diagrams on what your area of coverage is. Your first objective is to take away time and space from the other player, not necessarily to get the puck from them. That will come later, as a result of having taken away their time and space.

Pleads posted:Someone post a hockey story, sellouts is getting antsy The Goal. A One act play. ACT I CURTAIN RISE, DROP IN 9:45PM MDT WHITE TEAM ENTERS THE ZONE, STAGE LEFT. ONE MEMBER OF THE WHITE TEAM IS WEARING A RED JERSEY AND, FOR REASONS KNOWN ONLY TO HIM, A PINNIE. Narrator: Tonight was a pretty tough drop-in. A lot of the DU club kids were out en force. Captain dangles, johnny tryhard, and their buddy who probably didn't make the team, but still skates with them anyway. They were on the bench for this shift. As my team hit the zone with speed, dark team's back-check was tenacious. They'd been mostly tearing up our zone all night, but this was our chance. A quick 10 seconds brought the rest of our paltry force in with us. Pass to the point, then cross ice. Back down to one of my offensive partners on the low wing boards. A WHITE PLAYER MOVES INTO THE AREA BETWEEN THE SLOT AND THE LEFT FACEOFF CIRCLE. HE IS NOT SPOTTED BY DARK. Narrator: I moved into the area between the slot and the left face off circle. I wasn't spotted by dark. My counterpart on the far side sees me and rips a crazy nice pass. I prepare to snap redirect it. Wind up, but the goalie seems almost completely prepared for the pass. I grip my stick as hard as I can. My blade in position to put it up and in, short side. The puck makes contact. ACTORS MOVE IN SLOW MOTION Narrator: As the puck begins to come off my blade, I can see in the goalies eyes that he has me. He knew the redirect was coming. Side-to-side in a flash. He has the entirety of my side covered now. He hovers, menacingly over almost every single corner of the area between myself and the glory of tattered rope and steel that lives behind him. CUE: FAAAAAAAAAAAART THE PUCK TUMBLES ENDLESSLY IN A GENTLE ARC, UP AND OVER THE GOALIE'S OUTSTRETCHED AND NOW FLAILING GLOVE. TRAVELING AT AN EMBARRASSINGLY LOW SPEED, THE PUCK MAKES CONTACT WITH THE FAR POST, BARELY CARRYING ENOUGH SPEED TO MAKE A "PING" NOISE. THEN IN. Narrator: I got all of it. FIN

When it's your turn, bring a craft lager or a pale ale. When it's someone else's turn, drink whatever they brought, be it Pliny the Elder or PBR. If they bring Natty Light, kick them off the team.

sellouts posted:You mean minus imaging, which is a huge component, and can suggest solutions like surgery, which fixes things that PT can't? Doctor's tend to order things like X-rays and MRIs when they suspect there's an underlying issue that the imaging might show. It's not a panacea. Sometimes a busted joint is just a busted joint, now matter how many MRI's or x-rays or surgeries you want to throw at it. e: Also, I would assume doctor 7's physician took x-rays. They're cheap. MRIs are not. waffle enthusiast fucked around with this message at 21:02 on May 4, 2017 |

The product page for the 5092 says they're thermo-formable. I'm honestly a little surprised the shop didn't cook them when you bought them.

If you seriously misbehave I'm grabbing your cage and this is not a thing you want to happen. This is an extraordinarily dangerous thing to do.

He's probably the best, most well respected, and knowledgeable hockey player in this thread. That doesn't make grabbing another person's face mask any less stupid or dangerous Don't grab people's cages. You are literally transferring control of their spinal column from them to you. That is not a responsibility you want to take on in the middle of a loving beer league fight. If anything bad happens, you are responsible. waffle enthusiast fucked around with this message at 18:50 on May 24, 2017 |

Go to stick-and-puck and practice the things you want to execute well in game. I cannot stress this enough. Want to do Patrick Kane's thing where slows down to pass at the top of the circle then rips one bar down past a cheating goalie? Then go practice it for 30 minutes as often as you can. Want to walk off the wall and fire one in off-footed like Kessel? Go walk off the wall 50 times and fire that fucker in like it's Game 7. Then go walk off the other wall 50 more times. Belfrey Hockey has some great YouTube videos of the work great players put in before they ever do a thing in an actual game. 99% of the stuff that looks amazing and spontaneous is the result of dozens of hours of practice. Practicing this stuff slows the game down for you when you're doing it in anger. Humans are nothing but giant meat-filled pattern recognition machines, so when you get there you're brain will go, "Bleep blorp, Oh, I've seen this situation before. Executing operation x34a7b9. Bleep bloop." The only requirement is that you don't half-rear end it. As a wise coach once told me: practice doesn't make perfect; practice makes permanent. Go to stick-and-puck.

Did every pass look like a kind of out front scooping/snow shoveling motion? That seems pretty common at lower levels where folks try to "shove" the puck rather than slide it on its way.
