I took my stick out of my car this morning, and it still had a bit of the burning smell.....must have singed the paint.

I thought he was trying to use jedi mind force to bring it back to his hands but failed miserably...

Early morning pratices were the best for the fart shield. I swear they would linger for the entire practice. I got a bit of a reputation in Minor Hockey. My coaches would always have their chats at the other end of rink. Lol.

I actually had that last night. My guess is that a peice of your stick chipped or something. I broke a player stick and while shooting in my basement I could smell the graphite. That or we took too many biscuits to the head

Nice! I use it as a forward too. Gets the goalie thinking about where that awful smell came from instead of concentrating on the puck. :)

Hey - Port Coquitlam - I lived there until I was 3. :)

Two theories.
1) I was playing street hockey with my ice hockey goalie stick (I don't use it anyway) and my brother took a shot that was really hard, but we play with plastic pucks, you see, and it hit my helmet and something smelled like it was burning.
2) I broke a wood hockey stick and where I was playing started smelling weird...
For you detail freaks my stick is a Washington Capitals Semyon Varlamov Warrior Swagger stick, I got it at the Capitals practice rink when they sold all their old equipment after the season.
