    Point taken 🙂.  It is interesting to see that even now, in the midst of NHL training camp over a year since the Powerfly's been out, that I'm still seeing so many NHL players using the LS Edge holders. 

    Do understand that in most cases, the NHL adoption rate is driven by convenience, not performance.

    Received news this morning that longtime MSH member Brian Miyajima ( @TBLfan) passed away on Tuesday night after dealing with a long illness. 
     

    He was a great guy and I enjoyed interacting with him on the site as well in real life. 
     

    There is a GoFundMe set up for him: https://www.gofundme.com/f/in-loving-memory-of-brian-miyajima?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAR2kS9ZxsQtcxPDpybDuqHfCZLG09gF4ItkKwcsqnKbq1vQZEo1sE9iv3xU_aem_Wh8btLU1ZEj5izXWpul2Xg

    Well that wasn’t my intention, in fact I requested a code from the company for the purpose of sharing… my fellow team players have benefited from it so I thought those on here may benefit too. I won’t think about others in future. My apologies 🙂

    If the company is serious about getting more exposure, they can contact me and see if we can set up reviews; we don’t make testers pay to review product.

    I know there are people on this site that know the real reasons behind Warrior being in Mexico, I am not sure if it is more than being very quick to make custom sticks for pros. Quality wise it shouldn't matter, the Fantom was only made in China IIRC.

    NAFTA. Passed around the time Inno started. 
     

    They also can only make certain sticks in Mexico due to their manufacturing process there. The Fantom was one of the sticks that they couldn’t.

    Curious why Bauer choose to fuse the two parts. Why not make the carbon fiber part a spacer for a new lower height runner. That way the steel is replaceable after it's worn.

    Also curious as to why they haven't tried titanium. Too brittle...too hard to sharpen? There has to be more to it than just cost.

    Step tried a titanium/stainless steel hybrid similar to Fusion; was called TiSS - never made it to market.

    Second paragraph, weren’t Ti runners used in the 90’s? What’s the story with those?

    TiN coating - was gold plated.  Last company to do that was Tydan.
