500$ for a hockey helmet, and what experience does it get you?

If you call that getting drilled then that’s pretty laughable. He put his shoulder into your chest and you flopped holding your head. That was a little bump, could only imagine what you would do from taking a real hit. You wanna be the 100 goal guy then be prepared to piss people off, especially when you’re playing below your skill level.

Just heads up I have a chronic illness that affects my neck, and regardless if it’s a “sissy hit” it’s still after the play, illegal, and uncalled for. No hit is “laughable” in beer league. There is no hitting

older but My son and I both use ReAKT 75's top marks from Virginia Tech concussion testing/rankings. $50 on clearance at most places that you can find them as it is an older style. Comfort, safety, style with the color insert vent options, great value.

50$ is hard to argue no need for that extra zero lol

If people would pay more attention to the Virginia Tech rankings, not only would they be better protected but they'd also save a ton of money. The reality is, though, style and fit are more important to most than protection. Though, the Hyperlite 2 (#18) does rank higher than the Re-Akt 100 (#25) ... whereas the Re-Akt 75 is #4 and the Re-Akt 200 is #2. For Bauer, price to protection, the clear winner is the 75.

Reakt 200 user here. I must admit that it is on a bulkier side with all the padding. I think thermoformable occipital insert is a great idea, helmet feels really locked in on the head. Its a shame they went away from it in newer helmets. Sadly Bauer went all marketing these days and most of their protective, even high end feels expendable and lower quality compared to CCM.

After trying their other hyperlite protective line, there's no way I'd trust their helmet on my head. FWIW, I did smack the shit out of the back of my head using the Reakt 150. I thought I'd die due to the impact, but surprisingly, I didn't feel a thing. I did have a similar issue on the temples in terms of fit for my round head, and so I moved on to the more comfortable Tacks 910, which hopefully I'll never have to test because those fluid pods seem a little sketchy.

I rock the re akt 85. I like that I can adjust it sides and top. I had the tacks 910 but it wasn’t very comfy for me. I do feel like the quality of the ccm stuff in general is far superior to Bauer recently, in every category of gear.
