You know, he said the same thing about the CL's.... "These feel like I don't have anything on.....wonder how they will take a shot?" But we went with them and will see. Amazed at how light they are....how good they feel. Reviews of those wearing them say they are surprised with the level of protection. Didn't look at anything else, going from the U+ Pros.... Interested to see the Mako's....as I have stated before on here, not a big fan of big shoulder caps.

Looking at the pic above, I gave the LM all that tape and he bought another 16 rolls at the Grizzlies clear out(paid like $6 for 16 rolls).... Thinks he needs to retape his stick every few times on the ice....
