During my career in the NHL I was fortunate to escape the stench that comes with using my equipment every day- we had equipment staff who tended to that side of things and did a great job of keeping the odors in line. Further, if a particular item began to stink it was replaced with a new one. Fast forward a few years and things have changed. Now that I am done, I rarely play anymore, but I continue to sweat when I do… and my gear is not getting any newer. With the extra miles using the same set of gear, and the fact that I no longer “air out” my gear after each use (more often than not it remains in the trunk overnight, in the bag in the corner of the garage, or in the front hall at home), comes those familiar odors that we all know- and while the ripeness does not bug me, I do have a wife who prefers that I continue to leave the odor at the rink. Enter the Stink Genie- the one stop shop that allows me to do what I do and alleviates the odors and bacteria from my equipment simply and efficiently. It keeps my wife happy, my equipment fresh, and now has a role in our home well beyond just the hockey bag; we use it in our closets, with our pet bed, and even in our cars and I recommend it to anyone looking to rid their lives of unwanted household odors/bacteria.
