You're right. The finger protection on the blocker is fantastic. I've taken sticks and pucks there to very little issues. Light. Predictable rebounds.
Same with the pads. The balance given from how it positions the legs are superb. My knees and hips actually hurt less and are MUCH less sore after games! Have you tried the strapping methods on the pads yet? Or take the shin pad out?

I took a puck off the index finger on the blocker, didn't feel a thing (and that finger was already bruised badly before)
I havent tried any other methods with the pads. Love them the way they came. No point in messing with them.
