USHL Going To Shields
It seems that the USHL has gone to shields instead of cages. Under 18 will have 3/4th shields and 18 and over will have 1/2 shields. Parents need to approve of it.

I was just looking at pics from Youngstown's game(s) over the weekend. It seems that 90% of the team has switched to visors.

Yeah, I believe it's something like that. I had never heard of it either.

Sweetman, Renouf, Dahl, Cangelosi, Lowney, Evancho, and maybe a few more.


I think Renouf could have an 8-10 fight season since he doesn't have to lose the shield now.
