I heard that about Forsberg. Seems Riggs is excited about this?

I haven't checked th NJ line up yet. Devil Dave?

Nieds went to The Ducks and the devils signed Rafi, Mahlakov and McGillis. Sure up the Defense.

There's more too. Try a search for the product you're interested in and it should give you a few more places to look.

Thanks mark!
It will give a start to at least see what I am getting myself into money wise, to play hockey again. I havent played since high school, found out there is a relatively new rink here, so I thought it might be good to get back into it.

Another great place to shop is a consignment shop. There's one here in my town that has all kinds of new and used stuff. Now, I'm not saying go get a used lock strap, but a $150 composite stick that is almost new can become $50 at these shops. I took Sean Larkin to it here in NJ and he bougt skates and a stick for less than just skates! Nice ones too and they sharpened them for him as well. After that he still had enough left over to buy me lunch! /forum/images/graemlins/cool.gif

I love hockey and would recommend it for many reasons. It's an excuse to hang with the fellas and drink a beer or two after beating on some hotshot big mouth! And it's great exercise.

I'm on a hot streak here with 14 points in the last 7 games and at least one in each. Man it's fun to contribute! We have a championship game here on Wed. Wish me luck. The team is called the Lumberjacks of all things! /forum/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Amazing the deals you can get now on the World Wide Web. /forum/images/graemlins/shocked.gif I remember almost every year a bunch of us teenagers would save up for weeks and pile up in a car and make the trip from Massena, NY to Brockville, Ontario to shop at the famous Davy Jones sportshop for hockey skates and sticks. We were like kids in candy store when we arrived at that fantastic store. I bought my first pair of CCM Tacks and Bauer Supremes there. And during their brief period of huge popularity, I even got a pair of plastic molded Langes there! /forum/images/graemlins/blush.gif

Great to see Hockey returning. Now I might just get my cable TV re-installed!

Go FLYERS!
