Shot blockers are a game changer and blocking shots in a game makes you a game changer. when you dive down/ drop to a knee it takes you out of the play. I've used shot blockers since they came out and excited they've come out with a version protecting the toe box and also the back of the heel which previously was open to injury. your feet are made of small brittle bones it amazes me that kids still think it's uncool until they're out for a season then end up getting them after the injury... every time someone makes fun of me for wearing them they usually take one off the foot the same skate lol

Shot blockers are great, in the last year 2 guys on my team have had foot injuries from blocking shots or just taking shots off the foot. I hope thoes don't rattle too much, wouldn't want to rattling up and down the ice.

Love all you upload, thank you!!!Now if these guards can be color matched to team colors that'd be dope. Actually it'd be even sweeter to see skate boots and blade holders also having this option. The California Golden Seals did this in the early 70's, why cant the NHL allow this now? Even The Great One had his blade holders in Blue to match with Edmonton and when Nike signed him he had those beautiful white Nike Airs with the blue holders. Why isn't this done or allowed in the NHL???

@Freezy-x-965 жыл бұрын
It's a fairly common thing out in Europe and Russia. Many of those league out there use it so they can put advertisements on the tape, so a lot of players get used to it. I played with plenty of guys from Sweden, Russia, Czech, and Denmark who continued to play with the packing tape because they were used to it. I do admit it looks very funny though.

If I'd had something like this when I played I might have tried blocking a shot every now and then. It's a bit odd watching Lewis Hamilton, or any English guy, doing a hockey related video. I know some people will say my comment is racist, and they can fuck off because it's not, but c'mon he does look like Lewis.
