Not what the #stlblues needed, in a drill, Dylan Holloway not putting any weight on his leg after being tripped and helped off the ice.
Heading to Johnny Mac's to get the old CCM's sharpened up. They're gonna need me any day now.
This leads me to a stupid question, because I haven’t played in 20 years where do you get skates sharpened these days? I Used to go to Johnny Mac’s, Fletchers, Fischers, and the last place I think was the Hockey Loft. None of them are around any more.
When I moved I opened the bag my ccms were in. My god it smelled like a skunk orgy. Zipped that up fast and threw the bag, skates and whatever else happens to be in the bag away.
hahaha... so true.. hockey equipment, especially gloves, can have a very lingering odor. especially if not air dried after being used

I gave my old Tacks to my daughter with the caveat to never give them back, no matter how much I beg her.
I have a set of Pro Tacks that I’ve had for years.

Best skates I’ve ever owned.

My 16 year old son son will 100% agree with you, he loves his CCM Tacks XF. He will not wear anything else.

One of the Midget teams I coached had a contest of whose gear could smell the worst. Back then, some of the "locker rooms" (more like large closets) had no HVAC.
Quickest pre-game talks I ever gave!

The only smell that rivals hockey equipment is lacrosse equipment. It’s basically the same equipment obviously, but since lacrosse games tend to get played in warmer weather. That stuff gets thrown in the trunk and it marinates!

Mine never did for whatever reason...but I never wore elbow pads and they might get the worst of it.

That’s amazing that yours didn’t smell. I still remember being in the middle of a huddle when my son played in high school and I thought I was gonna die! The smell definitely brought back memories of hockey, but it was brutal!

Kirkwood Ice Rink will do this.
Any Pure Hockey location will as well (Kirkwood, Chesterfield, Saint Peters).
This

Play it Again Sports
STL Hockey Training on Manchester
The shop in the Meramec Shark Tank

Not sure where you are located but one of these should be by you

Holloway out 6 weeks with a lower-body injury. Monty confirmed it's a right high-ankle sprain

Well…….bad news, but I always fear an ACL when something like this happens. Little by little, the decision to tank is being made for Army.

Just randomly looked for news for the first time today about 5 minutes ago and thought it was good that I didn’t see anything……

Man just when he was really turning it on! This team is going to be tested, tons of games coming up. Wasn’t Snuggs injury only 4 weeks or so?

EDIT: no at least 6. If the Blues are being extra careful bringing Kyrou back, now might be the time to take the bandage off

Sucks that this is becoming a lost year but it may be for the best long term

It's good news in the context Dylan will eventually heal and it shouldn't bother him long-term. He should get quite a few games in at the end of the season and hopefully be at full speed next season. He wasn't full speed at the beginning of this season, just starting to come around with former separation speed and aggressiveness. Have to hope there's no lingering mental hesitancy in his game.
