Have you played the position?
Like, it’s obvious to anyone watching that these shoulder pads that come up an extra 6” are absurd. The pads are over the top.
But the wrist protector?
It’s difficult enough to catch pucks cleanly when normal people shoot them; you’re trying to catch a frozen rubber disc. It does weird things..
When pros are ripping them, with all the deflections and traffic, to say nothing of the Collisions and slashes you endure, yeah, your gloves need to be a little over-armoured.
But, it’s always possible I’m wrong and position-biased - do you have any examples of the glove cheater preventing what would have otherwise been an obvious goal?
