The reality is that most rec hockey players (including myself) don't need the top-of-the-line skates to perform to the best of their abilities. I always look for the best bang-for-my-buck in all my hockey equipment, and skates are no exception.
You can easily find able to find a pair of Easton Stealth S9 Ice Skates for under $200. Chances are you'll score just as many goals as with theEaston S17s and you'll save yourself $200 - $300.
