I was in Vegas last week and saw the construction and didn't know it was the new arena. I missed seeing the Wranglers because of the dispute with the Orleans arena. I'll bet the Players Association would support a Vegas expansion.

The 2016 Winter Classic is likely to be in Boston. We're now repeating hosts.

Large number of goalies getting away from chrome cages this year. I know I'm the only one around here that has noticed. Just passing that along.

I always preferred white. It was less of a distraction for me.

There is some science behind using chrome. Something about it altering the light to keep reflections out of your eyes.

Is this the goalie version of "what color stick tape should I use?"

That was the thing with Fleury's pads when he got the white ones.

Stick tape color doesn't matter on your blade. Don't let anyone tell you any differently.

Do not use black on your knob, though. The dye eats through your glove's palms.

Black tape on black puck does confuse you stupid goalies...I know it, you know it...you're just trying to use reverse psychology on us so we stop using it...you think you're slick, but we're 10 steps ahead...

I believe that's reverse psychology and you don't want the world knowing the black tape masks the early trajectory of the puck. amirite?

Of course it doesn't matter for goalies who only face bright orange balls and wear white Mylec pads. :slug:
