Awesome store. It's huge. Much better selection that the store in Pickering…read more The stuff is super friendly and helpful! We came at the end of the day on the New Year's eve and I forgot my purse when I was leaving. I only realized when I was on my way home when they called my husband's cell from my cell phone. Although the store was already closed, they waited for us to come back and pickup the purse. So very grateful. Awesome-awesome people!

The Big K needed a hockey stick which would, unbeknownst to me, require a lot of cash and plenty of…read moretime to research things like flex and feel. Ho hum. Not my idea of shopping. So the Big K headed in first while I went to Dollarama nearby to waste some time. How long could buying a hockey stick take? I finally had to enter National Sports to investigate the Big K's disappearance and within record time I was greeted by a very friendly salesperson who not only found The Big K for me, but three perfectly wonderful, very expensive hockey sticks that could significantly improve The Big K's game (and in sum total cost more than my dishwasher.) After much careful consideration, The Big K finally settled on "just one" (thank goodness) from this neatly organized and well-stocked store. I rushed the Big K with stick in hand to the check-out (in an effort to prevent him from buying anything else.) Even the cashier was super-charming and personable and made paying the large bill less painful. Final words: bring lots of cash. This store is conducive to shopping.

We went in to this place looking for a new pair of skates. It doesn't look like much from the…read moreoutside, but there is an unbelievable amount of hockey equipment inside (new and used)! The one employee, Noah, could basically own the place. He's probably about 15 years old and knew absolutely everything when we had questions about gloves and skates. He sized and baked the skates on, and was so impressive with his customer service. (Keep up the great work if you see this!) Would highly recommend visiting if you're looking for new or used equipment (adults/youth/kids sizes available)!

If you are going to get your skates sharpened at this place, be vigilant of who the sharpener is…read more There's only 2 fellas I trust with my skates and I would make sure to phone in before dropping by. I've had many occasions where an employee would not change or set the stone to accomodate my 9/16th radius of hollow. When I would get them back for my first skate, I would immediately be able to tell that the individual sharpened my skates with a 5/8" radius of hollow as there wasn't enough bite on the edges as I entered into my power turns. On another note, the service there has declined over the years. There were many times I would venture around the store; checking out the products while waiting for my skates to be sharpened and no one would come over to assist or ask if I needed any help. I've now decided to buy hockey gear elsewhere where I can get better service.
