What are your thoughts peeps?

It's all about branding and being 'cool' .... like having TF helmet


But I've been using CCM H8/10 sticks ever since i ran into a few bad Sherwood's and i love them.

One of them has lasted since Jan which for me is nuts, I just switched it up earlier this month cause i went with a shorter paddle. It's still pretty good and is decent backup stick

And if you ask me, i think it's one of the nicer looking sticks too

Maybe other brands are just copies of their products. Furthermore, all manufacturers copy some aspect of other pads and equipment...fundamentally they are all the same these days.

They are also significally more affordable.

basically all ******* products are just copies of someone elses work.

he has the facilities to make gear. why not make his own.. own designs. own ideas instead of just copying... who knows.. but that is another thread in itself

any how i like my CCM copies..

I guess I should post up some pics of my Vector pants... Im loving them so far, but one of the front buttons broke off, and that was just on the way to the rink... besides that, they work great, love the knee protectors, especially coming off ACL surgery.. they have been nice on the knees. I will probably end up with some CCM skates again once the vapors sell. Rob

Might as well post here too, since people may come looking because of the Title. Don't want to make them have to do a search.

Hey

I wonder if CCM could do a pair of Miller pads without the pad rolls? And fix the Vector trapper with a gatekeeper pocket?

Best Regards Jacob!
