seagoal Posted November 13, 2023 Share Posted November 13, 2023 Here's the press release photo All I gotta say is the players are lucky that they are a good team and winning games.

ThatCarGuy Posted November 14, 2023 Share Posted November 14, 2023 (edited) Lindbom got the call up to the AHL and still used his G6(.1?) glove but had to cover the logos. Edited November 14, 2023 by ThatCarGuy 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like that has to be a 6.0 just based off of his past gloves and the angle, but I am second guessing myself too lol. Warrior doesn't make it easy to easily distinguish their two glove lines. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThatCarGuy Posted November 18, 2023 Share Posted November 18, 2023 (edited) For those worried about the shape of the iconik pads. It's not as bad as I thought. They're also much lighter than Gnetik V and didn't notice the precurve walking around. They have some torsional flex that helps too As for the glove, not a huge fan. Feels a little like a 580 and the finger seal is terrible. Not a fan of the new shape. I'm sure it funnels better but if I ordered a set I'd order a gnetik 4 or 5 glove. Blocker is still a little sloppy and needs that extra backhand "anderson" padding like @TheGoalNet ordered. The glove isn't a deal breaker by any means and it's probably the only full set available right now that I'd be comfortable using right off the shelf (besides G6). No this is not my set just one that I tried on in store Edited November 18, 2023 by ThatCarGuy 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seagoal Posted November 18, 2023 Share Posted November 18, 2023 I was told by the Kraken Team Store that the Winter Classic jerseys and merch is launching on the Friday after Thanksgiving, but, looks like the jerseys "leaked" today on, oddly enought, the Utah Jazz (NBA) Twitter page. Local media guys confirmed it's most likely legit. How f'n amazing would our goalie look with mostly red gloves and pads? Skaters could have red gloves and helmets with dark blue pants. I'm a fan, for sure. I'm not much a jersey buyer but can not wait to get as many Winter Classic pucks as I can find. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
