Christina went with me and we went to Play It Again Sports and luckily Nick was working. We chatted for a while and he hooked me up with the rest of the gear I needed. If I were to buy what I needed for Stick Time I would have had to pay over $80 for only the pants and shoulder pads. He gave me the pants (new CCMs) and shoulder pads (used Eastons) together for only $35. I also got two ice pucks and a royal blue practice jersey and all together it cost me only $48. In a typical sporting good store, I would have had to pay probably well over $100.
Yes, I had to do it... It's a Myspace picture, I know. But hey! I'm not in the bathroom and I'm fully equipped in all my hockey gear, minus the ice skates and helmet, those are in the garage :) Otherwise I have on the shoulder pads, elbow pads, gloves, jersey, shin guards, hockey socks, and the hockey pants (or shorts, whatever you want to call them, cuz they are technically shorts, I call them breezers)
 Now the breezers are so cozy, you have no idea if you've never worn and played in any. You cannot feel anything when you fall on your ass so that's really nice. Basically I believe these are the same ones I got (in the picture below) and in case you don't know how to wear them, the strap tightens around your waist, so the pads in the back go up higher than you would think if you've never played. Kidney pads is what some of it is. Still, I find them so absolutely comfy |
