This just seems crazy. The NHL is going to game-test a nutty-sounding invention: Heated skate blades. It's supposed to make you faster. Wayne Gretzky is an investor in the product, called Thermablade.
I know a few guys in D-league who could use these things, yours truly included. But, truthfully, sounds like a big pain in the arse to recharge your skate batteries every two games. I have a hard enough time getting my stuff out of the bag to dry.
Read all about it here.
See how it works here.
By the way, anybody heard what's up with the fall d-league schedule? Season was supposed to start last week, but still no word. Other StarCenters have schedules posted and were starting Wednesday.
What's up?
