I saw the CCM 692 Tacks Hockey Gloves, and they're so nice and I want them, but I can't find them in senior size, only junior size. Here's a picture of them in junior size:

Does anyone know where I can find them in senior size?

I have CCM gloves (452 TACKS with "lock thumb"), and they are very stiff. I can't seem to open my hands or flex my fingers when I have them on.... If I'm holding onto my stick and take my hands out of the gloves, my gloves will stay latched onto the stick. This wasn't a problem until I dropped my stick on the ice, and couldn't pick it up with my gloves on....my hands just couldn't open up enough to grab the stick. I had to take my gloves off to pick up my hockey stick, and then weave it back into the the grip of my gloves.
So my question to you hockey players out there, how can I break these gloves in? I won't be able to just break them in through use because my fingers aren't strong enough to flex in them.... any suggestions will have to involve external pressures to the glove.
I'm in my 20's, so I've already done my "growing" :)
The easiest and fastest way is to heat mold them just like skates. If you bend and flex the gloves out of the oven, you'll find loosening them up is fairly simple.
You can also turn the fingers backwards towards the cuff roll and leave them taped in that position for 12-18 hours. You'll see a lot of pros doing this way although it can wrinkle/disfigure the back rolls a little (look at Sakic's gloves to see the effect of this method).
Lastly, in the absence of a hydroculator, you can keep the gloves in the bathromm and steam them as you're showering. It'll take more than a few showers to loosen them up, but it's far less destructive than soaking them in water.
I bought CCM Blockade pads that are senior size 34" and im looking into buying the matching glove and blocker because I have some Itech X-Wing 4.8 gloves and all I can find for the Blockade gloves are jr. and intermediate.
If you play hockey at a serious level i would not think of anything else but if your playing for fun you could probably get off using intermediate as they would save you quite a bit of money as well. If your playing with hard shots don't go with anything other than the senior as that has the most protection.
By the way i have senior sized blockade gloves and they are by far the best i have used , very light and durable, for sure worth finding.
because i bought my ccm gloves about 4 months ago and they already have a small hole in the palm. so im just wondering do you hold the hockey stick knob in the middle part of your palm or a bit higher so there isnt as much friction. and should a pair of good (not cheap) hockey gloves wear down in just 4 months? im i doing something wrong?
thnx
the knob ends up in the middle of my palm, i guess that's how everyone gets holes in their gloves..
