A Sea Of Red

does the team make any money off Pro-shop sales?

I ask this b/c I'm jonesing for one of those game sweaters, but I can't justify (to my handler) spending the cash if its going to pay the salary of some VP somewhere.

I'd feel better knowing the proceeds go to helping the guys hit the ice every week, either directly or at least a portion of it coming back to directly fund the club.

HOCKEYALUM, DALTON, DAD - thoughts?

Don't know the answer to that PA - I think the pro shop is owned/run by a D1 player.
I do know that it is rarely open.....

spoke w/ a source this AM that tells me "Buy away!"

evidently the guys (or at least the program itself) DO see the proceeds, or at least a significant part of them.

now to convince MrsPA that I need a home AND away jersey

You'd look so cute running around with the jersey dragging the ground.

don't be ridiculous- I'd wear heels

Now if we could only get it open before D2 games......

A jersey would be great but you would think my son would at least send me a hat.....

Def worth it. Mesh sides, old school front (player #) and old school back (no nameplate ).

Just tell her one is for your favorite student at LU...

ive got an idea...grow a pair and buy the jersey already!!!

Less than 3 hours between the time Medic says he has to ask the second baseman and Smoothie tells him to man up. Not bad. Had it went over 3 hours, I was going to have to say it.

i was too busy working SJ, I would have done it earlier

We do not get any money that I am aware of....it is a private business run by Andy Chamberland.

However, where it does benefit us is when people buy items it helps build more momentum in hockey @ LIberty. THat is a good thing and it indirectly is very beneficial for us. Can you imagine what the Ice Center would look like if half of it was filled with hoodies and jersey's of our team?!?! Do you not think that could help the cause of our program making the next step???

thanks for the info Dalton. We're all squarely behind you guys and proud of what you're doing out there.

great to have a successful winter program to follow - hope your winning becomes contagious with a few other sports on campus!

I talked to Andy about the shop just yesterday....I was wrong.....25% of the profit of Liberty HOckey Memorbillia goes to LU hockey....so PLEASE BUY MORE !!! hahah.....thanks again for your support of LU hockey and Flames Ice SPorts

Are you guys selling Authentic Game Day Jerseys?

they do- I believe there are 3 different versions. SMOOTHIE may remember better, or SJ- he went with me to look at them but we started a rukus and left the Pro Shop before I got us thrown out.
they also have practice style jerseys in multiple colors.

DALTON- thanks for the correction

everybody BUY BUY BUY!

When is the shop on?
