The Cost of Blocking Shots

Shots blocked in the NHL doubled since 1998. In 2014 the average NHL team lost 252 man-games, and more than $7 million in salary per season due to injuries. A broken foot can cost the amateur hundreds or thousands in medical costs, and lost ice time. The cost is staggering—the answer is HOPlite Skate Armor.
