Butters Stoch Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 Working at a hockey shop and being an equipment geek, that hurt to watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tre Mac Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 Since he can't break his goaltender over his knee he chose his sticks instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sygvard Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 Somewhere an equipment supplier is smiling as the rubs his hands together with glee. "Good, good, let the anger flow through you" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't Duchene's(?) family calculated that their total investment in for Matt's hockey career was like around $100k? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Master Mind Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 This is why I like having Henrik as a leader. He doesn't lose his composure and take it out on what are likely perfectly fine sticks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nux_win Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 If you did that with a wood stick you would have a bruise on your thigh and still have a useful stick. Just saying... ... bring back the wood. GCG! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it was close to that when they factored in things like billeting and education costs ya Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Green Building Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 38 minutes ago, on the cycle said: Does he care? Aren't NHL players sponsored? All their equipment is probably free. Sponsorships don't mean free sticks for every player that signs the deal. The player gets piles of money if sponsored, but the team still has to buy the sticks, and all other gear too for that matter. Except for cases like Chelios' shoulder pads that he had worn since peewee. Benn didn't throw away his own $600 here, he burned the clubs $600. So in that sense the gear is free, but it all still has to be paid for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tortorella's Rant Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 In all fairness, he makes $600 in about the time it takes to make 2 1/2 strides. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sadly, that tantrum probably only cost his stick supplier about $60 for those three stick. The money they are making on those sticks is crazy. And the hockey shops probably barely make a dime as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure it was more. last I talked to a minor hockey association member in north Vancouver, peewee rep was about 20k per year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
