  1. By chance could we see some more pics of the Shanahan AK? Curve? I don't see a whole lot of his sticks around.
  2. Yes, basing it on looks alone, it seems to be the same one used on the original Synergy and Z-Carbon blades.
  3. He had an additional pic in another thread:
  4. That's what many people would have said when told that Yzerman's real curve was actually the retail Drury.
  5. The only one I've ever felt reminded me of a larger diameter version of an old Easton Classic silver tip aluminum shaft.
  6. I thought they looked rounded in the picture as well, but quickly dismissed it as just the photo because Ilya is known for using super boxy shafts, just as Shanahan did.
  7. Drew, where in the hell did that gold Synergy come from?
  8. I just bought my second pair of those the other day. My first was from when they first came out and the other was a great deal at like $35 used. Amazing gloves.
  9. Just bought these beauties. I bought a pair (in black with white trim) back in the early 2000s when this 2nd gen first came out and absolutely loved them. Wore a massive hole in the palm of my top hand, but just switched back to them the other day because my Warrior Dolomite gloves developed holes in the palms within 5 games and became absolutely unusable within 7-8 games as the fingers all ripped through and side materials opened up (horrible quality on those palms...). So I switched back to my old Z-Airs, then found these online and had to have them.
  10. First goal tonight was just a great snipe off the metal and in, second was a Kovalev-type dazzler as he toe dragged in and around a defender, then went high backhand past the goaltender. He looks more and more like his idol every time he plays (just with a lot more tenacity and drive).
  11. Heading to my first Blues game of the season on Saturday night versus the Pens to see our boy Perron play. Absolutely cannot wait.
  12. TBL, I see that the inside cuff logo on the Eastons shows "E Pro". Is this an official way to separate pro-stock gloves from the retail E-pro version or not? Just curious because I know there are tons of regular E-pro gloves all over Ebay and many such as yourself have always said that people would crap a brick if they could see how much better the pro-stock version is.
  13. Well, it's true. Both the C28 and C29 codes are known to mean that the stick is a One95 despite whatever graphics. Also just goes to show you that a major manufacturer could simply change the appearance of a stick and many would not know the difference.
  14. In that case, it's a repainted One95 and not a real TotalOne.
  15. Might I ask, what the hell is the point of adding a ton of grip to the blade? Tape it, wax it if you want, and play.
  16. Clean, an in sharp, simple, uncluttered design or layout in this instance. That's not PHEW talk. That's language.
  17. I guess that depends on if you want the bottom of your blade to wear and don't like the dampening properties of tape.
  18. 243 flex? What the hell does that equate to?
  19. Never saw Hull using the Stealths. Was it just something he didn't like or what?
  20. They are a high-end shaft, or at least were at the time. Basically an UltraLite with a very thin and extremely rounded shape. Easton could never decide how to market/sell them most effectively. They came in 70 and 95 flexes (which felt like 90 and 105 flexes honestly) and were sold as senior shafts. Later, Easton kept the 95 as a senior, but began referring to their 70 as an intermediate despite the fact that they didn't change a thing and it was the same size. Compression-molded graphite covered with kevlar, just like the standard Easton recipe of the day. Marked as 270 grams, although that's about 20-30 grams too light, even without the wood plug. Amazing shafts though.
  21. What do you have on the way Krev?
  22. Got a brand new 2nd gen green Z-Bubble in the mail and thought I'd take a pic of my family of Easton shafts (some converted OPS, some broken) before a couple of them headed out the door to fellow MSH members. Nowhere near some peoples' here, but I've had several Eastons stolen or broken/thrown away as well. :( Top to bottom: Cyclone Aluminum 85 (used) Cyclone Graphite 95 (new) Cyclone Graphite 95 (used) Cyclone graphite 95 (broken) A/G 6000 (new) T-Flex Graphite 95 (broken Modano custom) T-Flex Graphite 85 (used) Z-Bubble 100 (new) Z-Bubble 100 (used) Z-Bubble 100 (broken) Synergy 85 (broken) S17 85 (broken) LOVE my Eastons, but this just came in the mail today as well...
  23. I would assume, seeing as his T-Flex Aluminums went from blue to green Z-Bubbles, then to green T-Flexes. Additionally, it would lend to the fact that most of those shafts look to be aluminums or partially aluminum.
  24. Drew, where'd you get those? Some people have been trying to track down some of those shafts for the better part of a decade.
  25. My dad still has his old pair that looks pretty much, if not exactly, like those. He let me use them back in high school one time before I knew much about ice hockey and I forgot to wipe off the blades after I skated in them.
