I have been trying to find a set of cloth lacrosse pads to fit me. I hate the huge pads they sell now, but I am old...I would put my kid in them too, Mike.

Re: NHL '09 - '10 Thread
 

I sure freaking hope so, I just might switch back to cable if it doesn't.

It was nice to see the Devils finally win a game!

I heard about it today so I just watched this video. I am a HUGE Isles fan and all I can say is why only two games? I think 5 for these type oof hits is moreappropriate. I would like a more physical team and even a quality enforcer but not this. I hope pascal will be alright.

Hurricanes have a new Captain!

Brind'Amour relinquishes the "C" to Eric Staal... remains as an Alternate.

Seems amicable. Thanks, Rod, for your leadership. :ss

Re: NHL '09 - '10 Thread
 

Rod is a good man, Joe. :tu

Hawks get a big 3-1 win to go half way through their 8 game road trip at 3-1. Looks like we may have a starting goalie controversy as well.

Watched the end of the Islanders game on tv tonight. I love when games are decided by a sudden death shootout.

Re: NHL '09 - '10 Thread
 

Ugh....hate the shootout, Ryan. I wish it would go back to each team getting 1 point for a tie at the end of the 5 minute OT.

Re: NHL '09 - '10 Thread
 

I don't like ties. Makes me feel like the game has unfinsihed business.

Re: NHL '09 - '10 Thread
 

That's why I love the playoffs...play until someone scores, even if it takes 8 periods...nothing like playoff hockey. :)

Re: NHL '09 - '10 Thread
 

That I can definately agree with. I remember an Icehawks UHL playoff game I was at that ended in the 3rd OT. The worst part was the ref allowed the other team to actually takeout the Icehawks goalie by diving into him and laying down on him so he could not make an attempt at the save.

Re: NHL '09 - '10 Thread
 

Sharks take down the Ducks again 3-1. To keep ahead of the Pesky Hawks.
Awesome fight by Clowe taking the wood to Parros and his P O R N stache. Also see Nabokov clothesline Perry at the end of the video.

In the flyers rangers game there were four fights tonight. It was all started when Carcillo went after Gaborik. I dont know Gaborik has ever had a fight before.

Avery had two fights. Here he goes after Carcillo and stands up for Gaborik. Honor from Avery?

The next time these guys play it should be good.

OOOO and Bersmoochi SHOTS AND SCORES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 14 on the season. 11 to go. 2 in weeks time. Could he be getting hot?

Re: NHL '09 - '10 Thread
 

You ever think about the farrell pads tom?
http://www.hockeygiant.com/farl650shpdsr.html
You are braver then I if you will wear them in game. I have been hit by wild shots more than once and after trying them on, I was not excited about the idea of having some plug uncork a wild one and get hit. My son actually liked the farrels, but they dont come in his size. So I went with some Itechs for him.

Suprised you are not rocking the old Bauer Pro defenders.

Re: NHL '09 - '10 Thread
 

Thanks Mike...I have seen the Farrells, but they don't make them big enough to fit my shoulders and arms.

Had a set of cloth shoulder pads for about 15 years without a hint of plastic or anything else on them. After all those years, they finally fell apart, and I haven't found anything that will fit me that doesn't seem like a football linebacker's pads. :(

Re: NHL '09 - '10 Thread
 

yeah your best bet then is probally the pro defenders or some sherwoods
www.hockeygiant.com/nbhpdefspsr.html
they got the sherwoods locally. dont know if they come in size sasquatch though.

Re: NHL '09 - '10 Thread
 

Local place here has the defenders but never seem to have XXL in stock for me to try on,,,,I need a couple things anyway so maybe I will stop by tomorrow for a look-see.

Re: NHL '09 - '10 Thread
 

$27.99:salute:

At that price I mean come on.

All though I think these SHerwoods in Sasquatch er XXL are likely just about perfect for you :salute: $39.99

In case you are wondering yes I am a gear whore and now almost every site. :r

As long as I am semi OT check out what I bought the boy today of ebay. Jokerit Finland Jersey. Perfect jersey for his personality `on the ice

Re: NHL '09 - '10 Thread
 

Thanks Mike, those Sherwoods look like a possibility...Looks like the Eastons won't be big enough.

Years ago I used to collect game worn jerseys...had the old Jokerit jersey with the evil clown logo, it was a super cool jersey...cool pick up!

Re: NHL '09 - '10 Thread
