This article includes a contest to win a "new" kind of hockey tape with customised team art for an entire roster, set up just for Bleacher Report ...a "thank you" to B/R members, writers, and staff. If you don't play hockey right now, it's a good excuse to start! [See Page 3 for more contest details, or just follow the contest link .]

~Vancouver-based equipment firm Blade Pro Products turned personal hockey dreams into an industry reality. BladeTape co-inventor and company president Richard Findlay has found partnerships with the likes of Brian Burke, Willie Mitchell, and Chris Mason on his way to making his own mark on the game with a new kind of hockey tape.

This season, I plan to test and review as much hockey equipment as possible, keeping fans and players up-to-date on some of the game’s innovations. More than that, I hope to give something back our passionate hockey community, many of whom either play or would like a reason to start. In this instalment, a review of a new kind of hockey tape, and a contest for B/R’s hockey readers and writers to win enough customised BladeTape for an entire team to try!
