With the close of the NHL season nearly here and the playoffs starting next week, we have started our usual playoff forums again. We will continue to fill in the teams as the positions get finalized and post the schedules once the NHL releases them.

I'm happy to announce that I have accepted an offer to be the Store Manager at the newest Total Hockey location in Troy, MI.

I interviewed with them in the beginning of March and came away impressed with their approach to hockey retail.  

I'd like to thank those who have helped to make this possible.  I'm excited and can't wait to get back in the swing of things.

Migration is complete.  Things should be MUCH faster now.  We'll monitor for a few days and will decide if we want to go even faster.

Thanks for your patience throughout the process.

We are aware of the issue and we are working on moving to a new server in the very near future and ask you to bear with us through these issues. Hopefully it will be just another couple days. 

We are having issues after we did the email upgrade, and what is happening is that any email notifications as well as new registrations aren't sending out.

We're working on the new server and at this time, everything works well there, so we are hoping that once we move we won't have any problems.

However, if you are a new registrant, you most likely won't get an email asking to validate.  We are going to manually find the registration and process it; however, this will mean it will take a while for us to process them.

Thanks for being patient.

We have been having issues processing new subscriptions and renewals for the Gear Exchange for the last couple weeks. We will be migrating to a new server within the next week or so and ask that you either wait until we have finished the migration to renew or purchase your subscription, or that you contact me or JR for instructions on processing it manually if you need to be able to respond. We apologize and hope the problem will go away when we move to the new server.

9 years ago on March 19th, we flipped the switch on and started MSH.  And to this day, we're still experiencing unbelievable growth.

We have the best members in the business.  This community never ceases to amaze me, and for that, I thank you.

Happy birthday, MSH!

We are in the process of upgrading our mail service and transferring to a new server. We hope to be back up first thing in the morning eastern time, but you know how these things go.

The 5th Annual MSH SummerJam will be held in...

Toronto!

It will be held on July 27, 2013 at one of the most iconic arenas in hockey...Maple Leaf Gardens.  For those who don't know, it was renovated and is now part of Ryerson University.

Our first time in Toronto shaped the event to what it is today, and so it's only fitting that we return there for the 5th annual event.

Well, MSH has been quoted in the Toronto Star.  This may be more for the goaltender equipment section, but.......

Lately, I've been noticing a rash of emails being bounced on MSH; every time someone receives a personal message or a forum/topic following, they are notified via email. 

The problem is that those members do not have valid emails, so it all ends up on our account as a Delivery Failure.

The simple solution is to make sure that you have a valid email address, so I am asking you all to take a minute of your time and make sure your email address is valid.
