Looks like this.

They carry those at Sportmart. I went and bought pretty basic ones for $39.99,
keeping in mind that I have 30 days to refund it. They only had one pack that was 76mm so I just bought it.

Sportcheck had Firefly brand ones, which looks like they are not for hockey blades anyway.

I might think about just getting them online then since they seem to have better deals.

Should I stick with 76mm (what I was using before) or try a new size like 72mm?
I plan to reuse my current bearings. Which are standard 608ZZ ones. Will that be compatible with most wheels I find online?

I'm also trying to find some hard wheels. Something in the high 80s or even 90A. The asphalt is not all that nice. But I'm only around 130 lbs.
Would having hard wheels and being light give me some traction problems?
It's a bit confusing trying to know what to expect by reading the wheel hardness rating. Because I see the same numbers for indoor or outdoor.
Would a 78A outdoor be better than a 82A indoor?

Can anyone recommend any stores or ebay stores?
