    It would be interesting to see how many he would have had at this point if it weren't for multiple lockouts and COVID19 disruptions. He might have already gotten to Gretzky's record by now.

    It will be interesting to see where he finishes with goals. He has been remarkably lucky in the injury department throughout his career.

    M is the factory, not mid flex. 65 flex T is shaft geometry, so T is a traditional square shaft E28804 is the player ID V01 is the version of the stick in its line. Version 01 indicates that it is an SMTacks, the new Tacks version. In your case that would mean a standard as3 pro build. there's no indication of a curve code, so the p90 that you were told is what it is. so you have a p90 as3 pro, 65 flex, traditional square shaft, standard flex profile for an as3.

    This, it's incredible how many Easton innovations Bauer scoffed at that they're now trying to market as Bauer R&D "genius"

    The flexible boot will be the issue in my opinion. the Mako was designed to be flexible in the mid sole so the front of the foot could lead into the turn (think of a bobsled). But it was designed to work in conjunction with the holder and steel. start torquing this combo steel from back to front and we’ll see how long it takes to break that seal. My gut says not long.

    Was the Mako designed with flex in its outsole? I don't get the idea. HT's video is great at regurgitating the marketing jargon, and that includes mentioning it has 5% flex. 5% of what? In which axis? How does this affect the holder? What about heel striders like the OG Vapor Monster, Pavel Bure? Though, to be fair, Bure's early Vapors had TPU outsoles, but that's mostly what he had used up until that time. I found out by using boots without any lateral stiffness in the ankle that I was bottom out on turns where I was leaning back on my heels. Shifting my weight toward my toes made it impossible to bottom out, and now I can't recall the last time I've done it in a stiffer skate. Agility to me, then, seems to be about the front of the blade as well. Props to Bauer for trying something different, but I'm stumped about how it's supposed to work.
