I advise you to take a closer look at Kochetkov. this is the guy who wrote out Marchand with pizdyuly. This season, Carolina is giving to him a lot of playing time to prove themselves.

Not a huge fan of how he plays by comparison of Sorokin or Vasy. Still think he’ll be really good in a few years Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope he has good growth in his career 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WillyGrips13 Posted December 23, 2022 Share Posted December 23, 2022 At what point are we going to stop saying Edmonton needs a better goalie, and instead say Edmonton is a team that makes their own goalies look bad? I’m not saying any of their recent goalies have been elite, but they seem to play better elsewhere, either before or after playing in Edmonton. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skinner has been near top of the league playing behind Edmonton. Smith did well last year too. 2. This is pretty much the same stats that Campbell had for the last 2/3 of the season with Toronto. They had to routinely outscore their goalie problems. Campbell is going to get slowly buried and remembered as another shit tier contract Edmonton put out for a borderline roster player.  1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soup giving Brian’s a try Some fun information I gleaned after talking about someone this last week: The GNetikV set he is using is pretty much stock (TKA 134) and maybe a couple of leather straps at most, so it's not like he's using a super soft version of the Brian's pad (they typically put an outer break if the thigh is 2 or softer iirc). Additional note is that the glove is a double-T, like his newer Vaughn gloves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chile57 Posted December 30, 2022 Share Posted December 30, 2022 (edited) Thanks for the primo shots @The Teal Terror. Have to say - the jersey/setup from the Sharks/Seals throwback is far and away my favorite of that particular bunch. Keumper's setup comes in second.

keeperton Posted December 31, 2022 Share Posted December 31, 2022 (edited) Wait until you get to see Ullmark's stadium series set-up for the game at Fenway. Swayman's already been playing in his set-up, and it looks great. Sorry for not posting them, the pictures (that I took) are on my phone and I haven't been able to transfer them yet, but some already exist on the internet. Maybe later?

I think if you want to represent old skool, the 90s and very beginning of the 2000s style sets work better in my opinion. I.e.

It looks great, going to upload my pictures (some not taken by me) here in a second.  Additional edit to add that Jack Campbell severed his Vaughn contract by appearing in Brian's gear in yesterday's game. Full GNetikVs, stock flex on the pads, added leather straps (redundant with the calf), and leather boot instead of nylon.

There really is nothing more reliable and consistant then the old buckles, even in 2023. To an extent. The idea of hybrid elastic and nylon/leather setups has intrigued me a lot lately since you could have a comfortable, tight fitting pad but without the risk of the elastic stretching too far away from your leg. Aka CCM QMSS and True FRS  The V2s I picked up fit super tight however they occasionally limit flexibility because leather doesn’t stretch like elastic Edited January 2, 2023 by ThatCarGuy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not to discredit, but I know some guys use the leather only because they like how it sounds or looks (Daccord being an example of the latter). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
