Thats amazing man. Well every sunday morning and sometimes Wednesday's there will be a new one wating for you ;)
Man, I've been watching your channel for a few years now. Insane how i was a tour guide in a museum, watching your vids on the shitter to kill time at work. Now I'm at the same museum working as a Business Analyst, and realized how my career progression mirrored your hockey career so far. You where playing junior when I first started watching, and now look at you, playing pro hockey in NA. I think that's what makes your channel and content successful. It is relatable, even in a completely different professional sphere than the rest of us.

Even as a back up you are way further in your career than so many people. I spent 3yrs as a practice goalie for 2 separate teams and a fourth string goalie for a pro roller hockey team. I was paid $10 a practice and got free parking. And I was on call for game day I had too keep my equipment in the car and had a folding chair in the nose bleed section.

Just received my Prolacies Travspec 2. They look and feel so much better then the other product in the big box stores. They cost more but you can see the quality difference. Only thing I would change/update is the picture of Trav they add to the packaging. 1) Trav is wearing a FIK jersey not a Rockers jersey. 2) Trav has a True stick, all the issues True has giving you, maybe back that out alla 1990's world junior's had to do when they played back in the day. 3) No signature on the pic? I wanted to frame it, but with no signature it doesn't feel right to frame it.
