Since I somewhat Hijacked the stick thread, I will start my own Hockey Expert Thread. Feel free to leave any comment or suggestions on how we can improve to help serve you better.

Below is a few pics of the store in case you guys havent seen it yet.

sick stuff

i dropped off my resume a few days ago, gonna call in to check what's up, hopefully i get hired who knows

Do you guys accept Sportchek gift certificates?

You guys should allow purchased sticks to be cut down..... unlike maple ridge who refuses to do it...

very nice! but i will never pay retail again :D.. itll be good for browsing though

Yes we do

Yes we do allow sticks to be cut down after its been pruchased. The common misconception is that cutting down the stick will void the warrenty, that is only the case if you cut beyond the manufacture's reccomended cut range. This used to be never listed, so stores would tell customers that they can't cut the stick in fear that the customer will cut too much. But as long as you cut within the manufacture's marked range, you'll be fine.

That being said, any stick that is cut cannot be returned

lol my favorite arguments were the ones about the warranties being voided if the sticks were cut....

Also, will you guys be replacing rivots? 2 stores I tried listed rivot replacement @ 2$/each, when I brought my skates in they said they didn't have a rivot machine lol

Yes we will be, probably starting december. Rivtor is missing a few pieces, need to either get it replaced or get a new one.
Will also be doing profiling as well.

Go in and speak with the Hockey Manager in person, we get a lot of resumes daily, not all of them gets looked over right away. He is the short japanese guy in hockey with a collered shirt + name tag

The guy that sold me my skates is the Hockey Manager...hmm, I should go back to talk to him to try to score a part time gig just for discounts!..haha

Well now that you've said that they definately wont hire you hahaha.

I can't see the bench for trying on the skates all that well but it looks like you may what to change the layout.

sorry, not quite sure what you mean, can you please elaborate?

do you guys sell roller wheels?

No Roller Hockey gear/accessories at this time. We will be carrying a small selection in the upcoming spring.

can I see more pics of the benches where you try on the skates?

^ it just looks like your basic two large step bench. What do you mean by they should change it, where does the problem lie?

So what is this?
Hockey Experts is some new "store" within a store?

Is it worth checking out or is this like a new layout of the typical hockey stuff that's there
at sportcheck normally? I'm specifically looking for goalie gear, and sportcheck usually just has one RBK set to choose from...

We still don't have a huge amount of goalie selection. That being said, we are able to order anything from RBK or Bauer

is this just same old sportcheck as before or has something changed?

cos if its the same old. they only sell the reject stuff from the big stores. ie. no high end sticks or skates

Skiiipi, I need a baby blue coloured hockey jersey in XL. Do you know if your store has it? I've checked out SE, Cyclones, SC on Broadway and none of them have one in that colour.

I know we have the penguin's baby blue colored rbk edge jersey, not sure if we have XL. Give the store a call, 604-278-5461
