Finally got some decent photos! From my Spring league. Lots of fun, will do it again.



Trying to corral a bad pass:

No checking league:

Deked through four guys and then took a terrible shot that was going wide

Decent action picture:

Heads up when passing:

A lot of passes are about 10 feet in front of me:

My favorite, ref photo bombed the team picture:

Lol, awesome

 

[jazzykat]

That photo bombing pic is Awesome. Everyone looks really happy!

This thread's pretty cool. I don't have pictures of me on ice since the league I had no one take some, but I had taken some pictures playing street hockey with some friends in my 1/2 mile driveway

 

[RiceCooker]

Rec League this past season.

 

[kr580]

[PlamsUnlimited]

Impressive gear, and I like your mask.

 

[stocky]

Impressive set up man!

This is a photo of me in action and the equipment that I wore. No helmet or elbow pads.

 

[Wilch]

That's a sick setup expy. How much did putting all that together cost you?

Thanks!

Id probably estimate it at around 3k, but I got piece by piece, the only real big expenditures were the pads/gloves and helmet.

Must get a lot of laughs around the rink IMO. Playing dress up isn't all that impressive and amounts to a lot of wasted money.

Don't listen to this guy, you look awesome!

My apologies if that sounded harsh but I've been around the game a long time and seeing a goalie that looks like Carey Price's double at their local rink would make people laugh.

In all honesty, your opinions are welcome.

31 was my number prior to Price, (Hackett era), prior to that it was 1. I bought a full custom set from Don Simmons, for which you can't get a design outside of the stock patterns (2 designs at the time) for which I did not like the other design pattern so I went for this one. Colors are obviously "per taste", but these have always been the colors I've worn, since starting ice hockey. The mask is inspired from one of Carey Price's masks but is a different design altogether, my other mask is blue themed (Canadiens still), but I wanted to purchase an Itech 960, so I did that and got a new paint scheme on it).

And, well, I'd rather have everything match then have a mishmatch of clashing colors (a.l.a. KHL).

And about "wasted money", 3k is not a lot for goalie equipment, in fact, I got good deals on most of the gear. The pads and helmet alone are 2k+ (pro level), I don't play at a low enough level that overseas gear would suffice.

 

[JoeCool16]

That's a hockey card pose right there!

 

[Wease]

Thanks. Honestly, I don't even know what half of my equipment is. When you get old like me, you keep the stuff you like or modify something new to make it how you want it...

Everytime I go to drop in there are people dressed up in NHL team sets.. its a pretty common thing..

This is hilarious, I thought you we're bs'ing us and I totally thought that was just a photo of Price. Nicely done, that must get a lot of looks, and laughs at your rink.

Nothing wrong with it at all. If playing forward I use the 90's Sabres uni/blank jersey and their colored stuff. Lots of people I see buy/model their gear after their favorite teams/players
