Additional Information On The Therma Blade

from the CP via TSN,

“The NHL is very interested in confirming the data provided by Therma Blade Inc. to establish the safety and reliability of the blade under NHL game conditions and we have agreed to allow a small group of players to test these blades in practices over the next few weeks,’’ says Kris King, the NHL’s senior manager of hockey operations.

Six to 10 players will try them first. If there are no glitches, the blades then would begin appearing in NHL games.

King says once he receives from the company a list of players who want to participate, he and Stu Grimson of the NHL Players’ Association will review it and decide who’ll be asked to wear the blades.

I got a feeling this blade is going to take off big time, and quite a few players will start using them.

What happens when all the players start using the blades? By the third period the ice will no longer be ice…  tongue wink
