Previous Feedback
Comments: My middle aged eyes would lose sight of the puck 1 to 2 feet in front of me with my old Bauer cage. Not with this one. It was much easier to track the puck. The mix of flat and round bars was a surprise. Well worth it.

Comments: So I won the 50$ gift card and decided to pick this cage up. Now I do have to say I am a bit disappointed yet also not at the same time. The reason I'm disappointed is that the large is about a CCM580 medium(not the biggest of deals, I still manage to work with it). Another disappointing thing is that the straps aren't very long(for myself I hang my cage but once again I can deal with it). Now the upsides, I absolutely love the I2 scheme. Playing with it over the past few days has been amazing and I am not disappointed. Now to conclude: Will I use it for this upcoming season? Yes, but I'll have to make my own cage straps to get a looser fit to suit myself. Am I overall happy with my purchase? Absolutely! Would I recommend this to a friend? Yes but I would warn them about the sizing issue.
