I thought the Kucherov pro was the pro custom/retail Fisher pro.

I think Kucherov used a slightly modified version with a bigger rocker and flatter toe

Looks great Jake! Have you had a chance to skate in them yet? If so, how do they compare to the Cat Pros? I’m looking to make the upgrade as well

They are absolutely incredible and may be the best True skates I've ever used. I baked them once and they immediately felt broken in. I didn't pay anywhere near the $1,099 retail price, but they are very impressive for retail skates. They feel similar to the Cat Pros in construction and fit, but the tendon guards and heel feel more robust. Hopefully True fixed the cracking issue from the first Catalyst line. 

 

I also love my Catalyst Pros with shot blockers. These two will be my game skates going forward.

Leather Warrior Franchise RWB (Don't call them Winnipeg Jets retro)

these need a repalm but I got them for an absolute bargain and they just don't make gloves like this anymore.

Glad you got those. Almost pulled the trigger as I wear 13

Droooool

I was looking at those too, but without CPR I wouldn't have anyone to do Easton cuffs on them.

wow

snagged a couple pair from PSH's recent sale that I'd been eyeing.

Barabanov Sharks teal 13" Jetspeeds. These are my new favorite CCM model. I also have Cali Fin, North Dakota (at ITR) and all-black Jetspeeds coming in from SLS. I'm looking for 13" Coyotes (black with brick red cuffs) if anyone has any leads.

shell #177 Arizona Coyotes Desert Night

 

 

I was not a fan of these jerseys but did love the shells/pants. 

I'm a big fan of the Kachina so right now, I'm trying to get my hands on as much Kachina stuff as I can before it disappears forever.

[Golden Gate Sharpening]

I also picked up an Arizona shell. I'll be wearing this set in Phoenix in January.

Matte Coyotes Super Tacks X

 

[shoeshine boy]

beauty! I wish I'd have seen these quick enough to snag the small. I didn't even realize the Yotes wore matte helmets until these showed up on PSH.

Was able to get an unbelievable deal on a pair of 9X4 so grabbed a pair, swapped in XS holders and superfeet, installed helicopter tape, and removed the inside graphics as well as the chrome ‘nuerofit+’ on the heel. Haven’t skated on them yet, but first bake they feel quite a bit snugger than my current Cats (could be the new toe cap?). While I haven’t been a fan of the TF or Cat stock tongues and have swapped them for the felt t-guard tongues, I am going to give these ones a shot. They seem nicer than the previous version.

[Golden Gate Sharpening]

I love my 9X4's and they definitely open up after a bake and a few skates. I'm sure you will love yours too. If you don't mind me asking, the copper rivet placement seems very random. Is there a reason behind it?

[Kpowers55]

What was the helicopter tape used for? General surface protection?

Nope. Mess up by the shop. Didn't notice it until I got home. Will be having them fixed next week.

Protects the surface mostly. Cat Pro and Hzrdus Pro both had them installed by True. The SVH may have as well. Could potentially protect about cracks, but I don't know about that really.

Just removing the Neurofit stripe makes them look 10x better.
