Curve Suggestions

[kovalchuk71 212]

Hey I currently use the tps messier and love it, but its a 6 lie so I have to have it really short (comes to my pecs). I want something with a 5 ish lie but have the curve like that. Would a heatley work for me? Does anyone have any other suggestions? I know theres the DB, but there are no curve pics or people opinions

Does the robatille resemble it at all?

Maybe a Coffey curve or a Gaborik. Robitaille does resemble the Coffey, haven't compared it next to a Messier though.

The messier is a big curve without lots of twist right? Seems that way from the pattern db/hazy recollection.

If the blade your diggin' is wood then you could shave the heel a little bit to lower the lie. If not, you may want to try an iginla or darby.

Mess isn't as big as either of those, Heatley is probably the best option to try.

Thanks chadd, I went to modano, but didnt like the curve so i think ill give the heats a shot. Would robatille work better for the than the heatley?

Does the robatille play like a 5 lie?

Robitaille is about a 7 Lie.

I used to play with the Mess cuve and had the same problem. I switched to Christian's Pattern 5, which is based on the iginla--it's a 5 lie. It has worked great. Plus, it's a wood tapered blade, and it has been more durable than the tps comp. blades. And they are only $26 plus shipping...

They make the 5 in comp as well.
