Hockey players/coaches in here.
 

Where would you buy your equipment? I need skates,helmet,shoulder pads,elbo,knee,pants etc. for cheap, I dont want to buy expensive or used equipment.

How are mission ice hockey skates? fuel 65?
How about ccm pantera's??

like a 40 buck difference missions being more.

Im a newb to ice hockey, and havent played roller in 4-5 years.

Thanks,
Matt


EDIT #1 I know Missions where hawt back in the day I played roller, still that same hawtness?

As far as I know (my buddy plays) CCM is where its at but I have heard Mission brought up.

i was always a fan of ccm skates. they have good ankle support and they last a long time.
the biggest thing about the equipment you buy is to get stuff that fits right. go someplace that is jsut about hockey, not a general sporting good sstore.

i cant go to pro shops.. they want 400 for the same skates i can buy online for $125 im allready paying 600 out of my pocket to play other 600 is outa my moms, and i gotta buy skates at least

Goto the store get fitted and order the exact stuff online.

I've skated mission roller hockey skates, never their ice skates though. I like them, very comfortable and very good support. I had a pair of Bauer roller hockey skates and loved them. I have skated both CCM and Bauer ice hockey skates, but they were rentals and pretty beat up. from what I can remember, I liked the bauers better.

I was happy with misions two, I have a skate in my room that are probably 6 years old and look decent, just dont fit...Im gonna order the skates and if they dont fit return them. and then if any one wants to go to woodbridge for a free skate id be down..

ive played hockey for like 10 yrs now from roller to ice. missions are crap, their boot is ****** and they just suck. id go with ccm super tacks if u wana spend that money. their light and have a well built boot.

also try hockeymonkey.com
and hockeygiant.com ive got alot of equipment from there and so has my brother, their very good

CCM's FTW

for those with ccm's whats your shoe size and what size are your skates? it says 10.5 would be my skate size, how ever i dont want to have to reoarder them

i ordered ccm 92's

3 wooden hockey sticks on clearence from some website at 10 a peice,

even if the sticks dont last 2 games, i still think its a hell of a deal considering the nice stick I have now is up to my chest bair foot let alone skates
