WillyGrips13 Posted November 6, 2021 Share Posted November 6, 2021 Always a bummer when another goalie changes gear from a company not heavily represented in the NHL to one of the companies everyone uses. I’m not saying CCM, True or Bauer are bad. It’s just boring when everyone wears the same thing. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a little bored seeing True on every NHL goalie, specifically because I know they're damn frustrating to get as a regular consumer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm waiting for another TT moment when a pro will skate on with a different logo-less brand that isn't part of the NHL agreement. Last season's blank True users don't count, we all knew it was gonna happen anyways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike24 Posted November 7, 2021 Share Posted November 7, 2021 I miss the days when there was a lot more brands in the show. I agree it’s boring when everyone is in the same thing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always found it bizarre that no goalie in the ECHL is wearing warrior at the moment considering warrior sponsors the league and all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree it’s boring when everyone is in the same thing. There is currently five different brands being used in the show. True, CCM, Bauer, Brians, and Vaughn. Granted two of them are the same gear but with a different name on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MTH Posted November 8, 2021 Share Posted November 8, 2021 The limited manufacturers in the NHL isn't just limited to goalies. Hell, I miss guys wearing old gear. Nothing in the league is older than a few months. No old ass helmets, favorite gloves dyed to match. New gear is game ready (which is cool) - but makes it boring.

Scythe Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 (edited) Merzlikins had sky blue pads last night. I really butchered up this post sorry. I posted an old pic that wasn't even him .. looks more suited for old Penguins Edited November 16, 2021 by Scythe 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy to read that I'm not the only one annoyed by this, I mean the Cowboys. But saying this, The Habs have (at least) 3 different shades of blue for the jersey stripes, pants/helmets and CH logo. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chile57 Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 +1 on this. And why are their pants blue-ish instead of silver? Forever irritates me when I catch them on TV. Ridiculous. Then again - NOT a Cowboys fan. 28 minutes ago, chakal said: Happy to read that I'm not the only one annoyed by this, I mean the Cowboys.

MTH Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 Bob Esche at the Alumni game Monday. Slightly bummed not wearing Eagle stuff: Also Neil Little still wearing his Brian's Phantoms gear: I didn't know the goalies for the orange team. Here's an obstructed view of one of them (Mike McKenna) behind Big E and Brand Marsh: The goalie in the background is Mike McKenna. His Bauer printed pads looks cool: They look like video game goal pads. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are EFlex and 12 series cousins? Yeah, but they are not the "same". CCM is probably going to Bauer-esq in the market with technology. I would expect True to follow the classic Lefevre path of subtle tweaks and avoiding messing up something that works well On 11/6/2021 at 4:16 PM, cuprajake said: Do true pay their goalies Yes, they do. I don't know exactly who is paid and who is not. Freddie and Helle are definitely formal endorsers of the product and getting paid. I don't have good insight past that. Someone like Price might have a smaller deal because he's not in the stick and not featured in ads / social. Don't worry about Carey though, he probably has a Warrior stick deal Someone like Murray might get like a free set of golf clubs through True's golf connections. This sort of "hook up" sounds small, but it works. I have heard reps pass out $5,000 gift cards to Lulu, Nike, or whatever as a thanks to lower value guys switching brands. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
