Non-Stop Hockey

dave and orlando can get you pretty much anything you want — size, color, style in everything from gloves to pants to helmets. i have a rather large, round head and dave’s suggestions about helmet brand and fit have been hugely helpful (not to mention actually getting the extra large sizes). i drive up here to get my skates sharpened because they are one of the very few places that does this right — if the edges are worn unevenly they will «flat» your blades first, then put the groove down the center. custom radius, special sharpenings — you name it and they can do it (dave was the nj devils equipment manager in the mid-​90s and he knows how to cater to any preferences). today’s major win — i have a pair of warrior gloves (in devils colors) that i use for coaching on the weekends. they’re broken in, comfortable, and had come unstitched between the last two fingers. dave took out the leather tools, stitched them back up while i waited, and the resulting seam is the strongest part of the glove — and saved me $ 100 in the process.

Great little hockey shop. I come here to sharpen my skates — as they know how to do it properly for my runner blades. Also bought my skates here, hockey bags, helmet, etc. etc. Its hard to buy a stick out of season here (March) but I guess they dont cater so much to the beer leaguer (as these seasons run year-​round).
I recommended this place to a guy on my team as he was unhappy with his new skates he bought elsewhere. Told him to come here with his old ones to replace the the blades/​blade holder and return his new skates. He did, and was very happy.

I came here twice, and both times were a pleasant experience. I must say, while they offer a huge selection of merchandise, you pay the price with a small mark up. That’s not a problem… You try finding the gloves or pants in this color and size, somewhere else. If you’re not very picky and are tight on cash, check out their clearance section. I was able to pick up a few sticks for a steal! I wish they were closer, because it’s really a hassle to get there if all you need is a stick and your blades sharpened.
