  1. Eric Desjardins used to rep that aswell.
  2. Too Old, that jersey is a Beaut!
  3. Does anyone know what Maxim Lapierre did last night against the Bruins that is causing so much commotion from everyone? Something involving him not wanting to fight..?
  4. His insights into the game tend to be pretty interesting and generally correct.
  5. C'mon PJ Stock isn't that bad...rather have him speaking than Glen Healy, or Pierre Mcguire, or Mike Milbury.
  6. Did anyone catch David on RDS Sunday? He was on the panel during intermission for the Wings/Predators game. I think it was him, Bob Hartley, and some host. He's doing what Marc Recchi is doing for TSN, but in french. That's pretty wild, good for him.
  7. Andy Murray is seriously a fag. He gives David 5:55 minutes of ice time in a game he was probably looking forward to more than any this year. He's in front of his favorite team, family, friends, Kovalev etc., at least give him a chance to do something.
  8. If Andy Murray sits him for his first game in Montreal with family and friends watching and against his idol Alex Kovalev, then he is an absolute douche bag.
  9. the description of the johnson shaft just went a bit too far there...
  10. What's the lie on that, like a 7?
  11. why do you need so many sticks?
  12. Actually the guy is just immensely curious as to what the Kovalev curve really looks like.
  13. That True One is sweet, I like how the checkered pattern goes all the way up the stick.
  14. David plays like Kovy and pretty much wears the same equipment as him too. He's probably going to freak out when he plays Kovy, or maybe Kovy will freak out watching him. Anyways I'm getting tickets to that.
  15. Does anyone else find the T-Blades really ugly?
  16. I bought the exact same stick Today, and have the same remote control as you. good stuff.
  17. Does anybody have any news about David's situation? Will he be playing next game?
  18. 5'10 - 172 lbs. Competitive hockey 3-5 times a week 85 flex Sakic RH (silver model) Used for solid 2 1/2 months. Still going. Backround Saw this stick on sale for 150$ canadian at my lhs and decided to give it a try, as i wanted to try a whipper stick. It was a toss up between this, and the Bauer Endure, but decided to go with the ST because it seemed like more of a household name, and figured it couldn't be that bad. But after two times on the ice, the blade had a huge crack in the middle as well as on the heel and i immediately brought the stick back. When i received the warranty replacement i was highly considering selling it, but something told me to give the stick another try. And let me tell you, using the warranty replacement was the best decision i could have made. Therefore my review will be on my warranty replacement, which i believe is the real Synergy ST. Blade After 2 and a half months of solid use, playing 3-5 times a week of solid, chippy hockey, this blade is a stiff as when i first got it. I am completely surprised and very happy everytime i bend the blade and hear no little cracking or any signs of breaking. Although the toe is chipping slightly and the heel part of the blade (i do a 3/4 tape job from toe to heel, so that part is exposed)has a number of scratches and welts, it has no effect of the blade whatsoever. One of the best durabilities in a blade ive ever seen, especially from an easton stick, and on par with a pro-stock dolomite that i used which was very similar durability-wise. 9.5/10 Shaft There are a couple of scratches and welts in the shaft, but the performance and whip is still the same as when i got it. 9.5/10 Passing and Shooting It didn't take me very long to get used to the flex and curve of the stick, coming from a 110 flex iginla. I feel like although i can't stickhandle as smoothly as with the smaller bladed iginla curve, the Sakic 85 flex gives me more of an all around game. The 85 flex takes a bit off of my slapshot, but my snapshot has never been better. I find my self scoring a lot more goals as i have alot more confidence shooting with this stick. 9.5/10 Balance Balance is perfect on this stick. I recently bought a Stealth CNT, and feel like the ST feels sooo much better. The CNT in my opinion feels a lot clunkier and blade heavy, and everytime i switch from my CNT to my ST, the difference is amazing. 10/10 Intangibles Love the classic silver more than the newest blue color. The blue ST's also feel different than the silver. Durability Although the first one i got had horrible durability, im sure it was just a manufacturing defect. My replacement has truly held its name as super tough. Its durability is second to none. 10/10 Conclusion I really love this stick, i truly do. It is the all around stick. Its durability does not compromise the weight, balance, shot and overall feel one bit. The ST is comparable to the pro-stock Dolomite i used for a number of months that maintained stiffness and performance until a little knick in the blade slowly spread and it finally broke. Im sure the same will happen with my ST as there are several little scratches on the blade surface which will definately grow over time. I play competitive hockey and by no means take it easy on this stick, yet it is constantly ready for more, and takes it with pride. Looking for the best value stick, and probably the best overall stick on the market? look no further than the Synergy ST, its the closest thing to a perfect stick than you'll find anywhere. 9.7/10 Edit: Broke the stick This September as a little scratch had spread across the middle of the blade. The stick performed consistently for me for a good 9 months of hockey. The longest I have had a stick before that was maybe 3-4 months and I've used a looooot of sticks in my time.
