Here is where the Lidstrom and Malone gloves originally came from. As did a bunch of others they had made to exact specs. Still have a couple listed as of now:

My wheels. The Missions have an interesting story to them. They have Sergei Fedorov's last name ink stamped inside each boot, and his last name embossed on the heel along with number 91 embossed on each boot outer side near the heel. Per Justin who was with Mission, they did up this custom pair of boots as samples to try and lure him away from Graf. The construction of each boot is the same but there are subtle cosmetic differences in them. The stitching and stripes are a bit different on each boot as are the sizes of the Mission logos. The toe caps are slightly different looking too. One boot had an ice holder on it while the other was virgin. Now they have Sprung A7 chassis with Bones Red bearings and Labeda wheels. Fit is very similar to my 703's but there's no size designation anywhere to be found on them.

 

The second pair I have were brand new Sean Avery return 9D Graf G3's and the box stated they were made for him when he was with the Rangers (the first time, lol). They have Graf holders and I've put Step Steel in them.

 

The last pair I got from Marcelo Cordoba (Junkyard Athletic). They were a brand new pair of 8.5EE Graf 703's with Tuuk Custom + holders on them. I don't recall which team it was but he said he'd obtained them from either the Ducks or Sharks. He didn't know who they were made for. I've since removed the Tuuk logo and maple leaf from them so they're blacked out, and have Step Steel in them. For some reason the OEM steel appears very dark in this picture but it's just normal steel.

 

Listing ended it appears:

Last pair of (first generation) TBL pants, and current TBL glove collection:

 

 

 

And finally... my current Wings gloves:

 

 

Now have two pair of the 3rds:

 

 

 

Most of my pro socks. After looking at this it appears it's missing my solid red and solid white ones.

 

Yep, it's nice to have a drama-free site.

Well, I just got my TBL Franchise size M pants in. Interesting they're a 2-pc pant. My others are a 1-pc.

My pair of custom Franchise pants in size S fit me pretty well... I wanted to try a more snug pair of pants thus got the S size after reading/talking to some on here. I have a 34" waist (am 5'8" and 175-180) and they fit fine. I'm sure the M ones will be fine as well. IMO they seem to fit a bit looser than you'd think. At least the pro versions do... not sure about the retail Franchise pants as I've never had/tried a pair of them on.

Hated to pay this much... but they're impossible to find in a medium size. Now I'll have another pair of them just in case.

 

warrior put on the nhl and habs logo for you?

I noticed that too... but the NHL logo isn't the one Warrior uses. Most would never notice that anyhow... looks cool how they turned out.

Defense and offense... got 'em both covered 

 

Sometime I'll gather the Wings and Lightning gloves and socks, etc. for a  picture. That said, often I just wear my Tackla pants that are similar to the Sens, along with black/white/red Luxes and a black Warrior helmet.

Well, I got a pair of the Malone Franchises... couldn't help myself, lol. May have jumped on a pair of Lidstrom's if I'd known sooner.

The best part is they still use the "old" gloves with their 3rd's. Just a cruel ploy to make sure everyone has more gloves!

Thanks Larrivee!

They have a BA program for the Michigan football players to get their degree... Bachelor of Helmet Taping. It's listed right under Underwater Basket Weaving.

Yep, that's the normal cuff on those.

I've had these 703's for a while now, but upgraded to Step Steel with the 90/75 FBV on them as I had done on my newer G3's. I still like the old-school look of these. It's sure easier though to change out steel in the new skates with the Cobras than the Tuuks. The holders are the original black Custom + which I them removed the maple leafs and logos from. I also removed all the extra logos/etc from the heels of the boots.

I passed on a pair of size L which were too big for me and ended up getting them in the One95 flavor thankfully.

Probably a long shot, but you know who to find when those become a burden on ya!!

lol, yep

Got a couple small things to finish these up 

 

 

just scooped up this wings training camp jersey.

I have one like that and a red one too. I took them in and had them altered to fit me.... redid the sleeves and length of the torso and now they fit more like a 52/54. Easy to modify the larger jerseys!

Thx! Got these:




To go with these:

Wow, pretty cool grab there to say the least.
