Newspaper article:  The Olympic hockey competition was watched with great interest by one Fort Frances man. Some of the players were wearing a cut-resistant skate sock made of kevlar developed by Randy Hogan. Hogan says its helping to boost interest in the product.
"With all of the skate blade injuries in the NHL the last couple of years people are quickly learning there is protection out there," says Hogan, " so people are getting interested in the product more and more." Hogan came up with the idea after a NHL player had his neck slashed by a skate a few years ago. He says what started out as a small web-based business is beginning to take off through the increased usage of the product by the professionals.
