Tomas Kaberle was using a Warrior stick, this one obviously says CZECH on it...what kind of stick could this possibly be?

[whbd18 0]

Its in the Warrior font.Didnt Inno do something similar with draper with Canada graphics.They probably didnt pay a licensing fee,if there is one.

kaberle wearing a visor? thought he didnt wear one? and i thought you had to be under the age of 25 to have to wear one?

Whats the deal with Jagr and the old Jofa Bucket, does he wear those for pratice and then the newer ones for games?

Rob Mclean said today that players born after a certain date have to wear visors. Kinda like the rule in the World Juniors where players that aren't 18 have to wear cages.

Yes, Jagr's been wearing the old "Gretzky" bucket during practice since he was with Pittsburgh.

He also wore it in Russia last year when he played for Omsk.

Here's a similar stick to that of the first post, but a Canadian version.

Yeah, this was the case in the World Cup last year as well.

Does anybody know what the cutoff date is?

Ya those are deffinately warrior. I quess they didnt want to pay the olympic fees.Innovative did the same exact thing.

if marketing fees are the case then the "W" on prongers stick should be painted over

edit: i think its too small for the OC to care

Theres no way you can tell its a W.It could be something else,like a Canada's Leaf logo or something,or it could be the Warrior Logo.And im sure no one would be able to see that anyway from the stands.

the old inno special edition sticks are pretty nice, my brothers have a few from fedor fedorov floating around somewhere, pretty sure theyre would cup sticks, "pscka" and inno are still on them

edit: wow, oakley visors with red and a white O as opposed to black, sick

Prongs with a OPS! I thought he was using wood blades. You can clearly see the fuse point on his shaft though. Could be wood, but you can barely make out the carbon braiding checkerboard design of Warrior/Inno on the blade.

I like how Smyth's stick has "Moo-lay" on it. I know we've seen that before, but I guess it's just something he's gotta have. Hey, I'd grow a mullet to get his wife. She's a hot looken raven haired beauty. Jet black hair!

What kinda glove are those ones that Sakic has?? Pro stock what??? I would love to get my hands on a pair of those. Long cuffs and no wrist wrap crap!!

[sn1per 0]

I have the retail version of Sakic's gloves. They're 2002 Easton Z-Airs. I love them to death and would love to find another pair of them.

You can see Canada right on top of it. Alot of the guys were playing with the new Stealths they showed the practice on CBC.

EDIT: Notice the description on that pic.
