Random as heck: What shoulder do you hold your hockey bag on?
Right, I'd imagine that it's that way for most people that are right handed unless they have some kind of injury. Same probably applies for left handed people. I'm not talking about how you hold a stick either because I'm naturally a right handed person but use a lefty stick.

I hold every bag pertaining to carrying luggage in general with my left shoulder and I'm right handed. It just feels right to me. I tend to do the same for things im carrying in my hand unless its too much on my left then I switch to my right for a while and then switch back.
I don't think I have ever actually thought about this in my life, but now that I actually think about it it would just feel weird to carry it on the left.
i have a wheel bag. I've broken both collar bones so it's tough to carry my bag
Booooooo. Both my collar bones were broken, and I never wheeled my bag just playing around. Worst injury of them all, I'd say.
I don't think wheelie-bags were around in the late 90's and early 00's, either. Nobody I played with ever used such nonsense garb tarb. Now, every kid I coach has one. They even stand it up and it has shelves like a little locker. Insanity. Linsanity...he created the bags while at Harvard visiting at age 13.5

haha that's rediculous. I didn't have a say in it. My rents were at costco and they saw a deal on the canada hockey wheelie bags. My bag broke at the game I was at before, so that's that. Now i'm stuck with it.. lol
I had a wheel bag for a bit, unnecessarily bulky and heavy, stairs suck, and then it would flip over on corners. But my backpack rocks. I just traded my SUV for a Civic and I have a carseat in the back for my kid, so I can just plop the backpack in the back right next to it. Otherwise I'd have to take the carseat out every time I want to play. Screw that.
I've been carrying my junk around in a crappy old Itech bag on my right shoulder for 10 years. I desperately want to get a new one but it seems like all the stores carry now is wheel bags.
I generally carry it on my left shoulder but I sometimes switch it up, I had a wheel bag it weighed 10 pounds empty and it was pretty awkward with the solid bottom I never used the wheels only goalies should use there wheels I now have a new bag my equipment in it weighs as much as the old one empty
just playing around. Worst injury of them all, I'd say.
