New Skates, Sticks, Gloves

Over the last week, as the preparations continue to go over to France, I've purchased some new skates (Graf 703), and tried out some new sticks and gloves. Equipment is a pretty important part of the game for each individual player so customizing and breaking in each piece is an important part of the process.

I skated with some of the regulars I skate with every Tuesday mixed in with a couple players from the WHL and the Chinook League (AAA Senior). It was a pretty good skate and despite the new equipment, I felt pretty good.

The off-season training is continuing to go well as I continue to build strength and muscle mass.

I know it's a little boring right now, but I need the practice if I'm going to be doing this during the season. I'll post about more developments soon.
