04 Giants have had the same kids all year - no alternates or subs. 100% not true about Caps kids . Organization just didn't get order from Bauer.
.
oh right, Bauer ran out of helmets and pants...you can blame jerseys on them...but...
Don't know about helmets, but we were supposed to get BA shells and wind suits that never came in. Don't know if it's a Lovell thing, a Bauer thing, or some combination.
played 04-95 Giants team at JWK, had 4-5 kids with black helmets and pants, definitely not full time on their roster...assume they were Caps?
That's a leap of faith, especially when Bauer screwed up all of the equipment orders for all of North America, and lots of those kids ordered and payed for white helmets, they never got.
Prob not as apparent at other organizations because most use black helmets, so they could go unnoticed not getting a new helmet.
But I know of several kids at 95 that are on the teams and never got their helmets.
They do have lots of alternates at certain levels as well
