returning to the game

[bradgasser]

I stopped playing goal about 10 years ago. A few months ago, I was asked to fill in as a replacement and have since un-retired and playing full time. Im glad I enjoy playing again because when I stopped, I was pretty burned out. I started playing out and then hockey fizzled out completly. Anyways, I just finished fixing up my old 9000, new foam, cage, and paint job with vinyl decals (went the cheap route). I got my cage from Nash. It was much cheaper priced than anyplace you might see online. Took a hard deflection from one of my defenders and its great! I had to make some new holes in the mask for it to fit right, but no problems with that.

I use Heaton Helite II pads.
They used to have puck foils on them, so they got replaced to. Playing in low level adult leagues dont have rules on equipment.

Glad to be back between the pipes

Welcome back to the blue paint!

I took five months off and I was incredibly out of shape and routine, I can't imagine what a ten year break would do to me
