My first hockey equipment

If you're Ryan O'Reilly, you have a feeling using your older brother's gear may be why you like a little extra space in your glove.

If you're Anze Kopitar, you now realize that's just the way parenting works.

From building their own pads to having to make do with their older brothers' gear, players fondly reminisce on their first pieces of hockey equipment.
