Over the weekend, we went to purchase goalie pads, and had a very hard time digesting the price, and still have a hard time with this.
Two years ago, we purchased BRAND NEW goalie pads, (which if you arent familiar with prices for this, well it cost us 1600.00)...
Because the *rule* change, we had to go purchase a pair that we 1'' small in width, and it cost us close to 2000.00.
Likely my son has worked this Summer to help pay for them.. but this is totally rediculous. What was the Hockey League (or whoever) thinking when they did this change? And they wonder why kids are slowly dropping out of hockey.
ACK!
Would anyone know if someone could sell the old pair .. or are they kabosh?
