I'd only order from Hockey Monkey if you know exactly what you want and in what size. I wouldn't take a shot in the dark and just order it online in the event it doesn't fit, especially with skates. Don't expect to get a free baking or anything either.

Source for sports?
Sportschek?
Cyclone Taylors?
The Hockey Shop?

Any opinions or past shopping experiences are greatly appreciated.

Thanks
You can't have both. Sportchek is OK when they have sales and you know exactly what you want but don't expect any knowledgeable service of any kind. They'll tell you stuff like Vapor skates are for forwards and Supremes are for defensemen or something along those lines.

I'd shop at Cyclones or any Source for Sports Store (like The Hockey Shop) because they'll take the time to fit you properly. Sure you're paying a tad more but try getting somebody at Sportchek to punch out your skates if needed, most don't even know what that is, let alone how to do it.
