NJDevilsGreg Posted January 11, 2013 Report Share Posted January 11, 2013 .......how does one break a goalie stick? I broke one a few years ago...granted it was out of frustration though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebiggoalie Posted January 11, 2013 Report Share Posted January 11, 2013 That actual break can happen a bunch of ways. Broken in a door by the bench, the "Billy Smith Wraparound Windmill", over the crossbar in frustration, and the most common reason, dropping the stick to cover the puck with the blocker hand and someone stepping on it.

Brilliant! Posted January 11, 2013 Report Share Posted January 11, 2013 Have none of you ever seen a goalie lose a game in a shoot-out and then smash the stick against the boards in frustration? Or, my personal favorite: during a bump-a-Marty-party! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steezyb Posted January 11, 2013 Report Share Posted January 11, 2013 NHL players don't pay for the sticks I doubt they even care. I was talking with Mike Fisher and Shea Weber and yeah breaking sticks isn't a big deal since sponsors give them free. But they get used to a type of stick or even specific ones. Fisher and Weber both used Easton S19's for years, which apparently Easton stopped making this year. They both seem bummed about it and are savoring their remaining S19's. Weber is staring to use a Warrior Widow stick now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brandon Posted January 11, 2013 Report Share Posted January 11, 2013 I love the Joe Mullen jersey. That style Flames jersey is one of my all time favs. Im still trying to track down a blank for a Lanny. Thanks guys, the Timonen really is something special for my collection. Right up there with my Hendricks NHL debut. I like the sticks too, cool they're signed - the gold pen looks good. Fraternal twins?! Edge 2.0 & early 80s Maska Ultrafil. The Edge will be an Alzner, the Ultrafil is between a Gartner, Palmateer or Langway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TMLFAN Posted January 11, 2013 Report Share Posted January 11, 2013 Last two I needed to get done. Would love to keep him but I'm thinking he bolts once his contracts over next season. It's really unfair that he will never get the appreciation he deserves here because of the trade Burke made to get him (did I mention how happy I am that Burke got canned). Nothing much to say with this one. Great that he retired a Maple Leaf. Compared to the other scrubs that wore this jersey Joseph is the only choice to go with.

Phil the Thrill Posted January 11, 2013 Report Share Posted January 11, 2013 Wow, great pick ups. It really is unfortunate with Kessel, definitely my favourite player. Give the guy a #1 centre, and he is a consistent 40 goal scorer. Look at what he's done with Bozak. Love the Cujo as well. I went with Reimer on mine lol.
