CM6 custom all cordura arriving today! :)

Miller's site, I guess I can plug their stuff.

I just want to let everyone know that Paul and everyone else at Miller/Goalie Store has been very helpful. I learned a valuable lesson about price quotes in canadian dollars vs. US dollars. Had some problems with the price of my pads going up, but had nothing to do with goalie store and everything to do with the US invading Iraq and the value of the US dollar going in the toilet. :P

Anyway, I'll snap some pics when the pads arrive. I'm stoked about not getting stuck on my pad slides anymore.

That is great to hear man. I remember you telling me a couple of months ago you were getting them. What else did you have customized on them. Maybe I'll see you Sunday at the Triplex. What time do you play?

6:45pm

I'd post pictures...but my digital camera is gone! I have no idea what happened, at easter I took it to my parents' house to take pictures of my niece and nephews, and it looks like it never made it home. I should call and see if it's still over there.

So far as what's custom on them, I have an upper leg thigh board stitched on (similar to what you see on Giguere's pads over the top) and there's some extra nylon re-inforcements on the inside toes so that when I go to do a slide I don't get hung up on the sport court.

I'm spraying them down with Scotch Gard right now to waterproof them, and I'm looking for someplace to play pickup this week to get some practice in. Would you believe the Tri-Plex only has pickup Tue-Thur from 3:30-5pm? Ugh...and Queenie Park doesn't have it at all.

I can believe that about the Tri plex like they say "they cater to kids". I can't wait to see your new pads but I remembered earlier we have a bye this week which is probably a good thing because we are starting to destruct from within. It's funny that with my team it always seems to be the goalies fault that they don't win. According to God himself (aka Brian) the defense is doing all they can and I need to step up. This is after two 35 plus save games this session plus pulling out a game when we had no business winning. I guess three losses in a row were all my fault. I just realized you may not know who this is but I'll give you a hint you replaced me last spring when I hurt my knee.

D'oh!

Ed....you dork. :P

So far as self destructing...feh, now that I know who I'm dealing with....it'll blow over. That team is one of the better I've ever played with. They have a tendency to bounce back after a streak of losses pretty well.

Now the team I'm on currently....we make it to the finals two sessions in a row, win once, and the team STILL points fingers at each other. In each of the last 3 sessions we drop the first 4 games, win the rest, and make it to the finals regardless. Figure that one out...
