Equipment

[Dano33 41]

Here's a few more pics... we should just turn this into an official thread for all Wings equipment related stuff, as it seems alot of people are interested.

Looks like Shanny was still using a two piece last year... you can tell the difference in color of the blade.

A few other things you guys might have noticed this year..

Sammy with his Salming stick... he might be the only one in the NHL that uses Salming, maybe a few others here and there. Also might be the only guy in the NHL that tapes the cuffs of his gloves with clear shin pad tape.

Sammy

Lids has left/been dropped from Easton, he clearly stole that ugly visor from Rafalski's stash after the nose injury early this year.

Lids

That actually is a one piece Shanny is using. The shaft is painted black but the blade has kind of a woven pattern to it and is not painted, thats why there is a difference in color.

Sammy is also the only guy in the league using a Salming stick.

He may be using a different blade with that Dolomite. They're fused, not a complete one piece. I hade one and the blade was loose so I cracked the fuse and popped the blade out and put a piece of tape over it to tighten it up.

Found this on another forum. Sammy's glove instead of the tape?

It's obvious that players are using new sticks and equipment, but I can't seem to find any of it ANYWHERE! Like Datsyuk is using a black o'tech stick and on rbk's website, it only lists the green one. The Sedin twins are using solid black reebok sticks that I can't find. And Hank and the Mule are using Easton sticks with a new pattern. Also I can't find Lidstrom's stick either. Is all this equipment non-public yet or something? Does anyone know where to find it? Thanks.

You can find some of this stuff prostock if you look hard enough.

RBK 8.0.8 (Black O stick)

Also, the Sedins are using Bauer sticks. I don't know exactly which ones but any recent photos of them both have Bauer so that might help you find them.

Sedins are using one95's, or at least something with one95 graphics, the solid black reebok's where probably the 10k.

I felt kinda bad. There was a little kid right next to me who I was kinda letting grab it. He didn't, it fell, Jiri handed it back up to me. I'm 19, I'm almost to the age where I look kinda bad keeping something instead of giving it to a little kid.

I was just so ecstatic. I didn't even plan on going to the game, I was in Windsor for the weekend and thought about it at the last minute. $20 tickets and I got the stick. It was awesome.

I thought about using the stick, but I happened to pick up a vapor XXXX from WMU today for real cheap. So the Hudler stick is going up on the wall.

our boy has ditched his Itech Prodigy pads and is now wearing Brians Dx2 pads which are very similar to conk's. The gloves are Brian's Zero G, he was in Itech Rx9 gloves to start the year.
