I had a really good time hanging out at the UPMC practice facility with Louie. The sale started at 11am, Louie, his GF, and myself were first, second, and third in line. The Penguins' Elite teams got into the tent yesterday, but there was a TON of equipment to choose from. The only retro gear was Easton gloves and some coach's track suits... there were used retro socks, but one of DoubleDeke's cronies swept them all into a gear bag before anyone else could get to them*.
*DoubleDeke had a crew of 10 guys with him, each had a full player bag to fill with gear. They took almost all of the game-used gloves, skates, and the aforementioned used retro socks. The team put a limit per-person on sticks (6) and gloves (4 pairs) that stopped them from really getting out-of-hand. You could tell a bit of the wind was taken out of his sails when they announced the limit on those items.
There was a good deal of team apparel available, but the sizes were mostly XL and up... The Pens Elite picked over the smaller sizes. New pairs of socks were surprisingly expensive.
My Haul:

Love the apparel. What were prices on the speedwicks?
Tees and stuff started in the $10-25 range.
Nice haul! Have to single out the helmet bag, cool piece!
Some of those third kit socks are showing up on eBay for a casual $70.
Shit, really? I have a new pair of alternate/third socks and a matching shell that I'm not using if anybody is in need. (Not from today's sale.)
