3/4" curves

[golfpuck 0]

just wondering if any one knew if manufacturers will be making 3/4 inch curves available to the public with the nhl rule changes?

HC changed their rule years ago and it didn't have any impact. Plus, USAH still has a 1/2" maximum. The NHL rule won't have an impact at retail unless broadcasters make a huge deal about players using bigger curves. Then kids will feel that they can instantly become an NHL player by using a big curve.

BTW, the new NHL maximum is larger than the Euro limit.

The Coffey is a 3/4 mid, and isn't the yzerman/gaborik about that big too?

I think they are both 9/16"

Maybe this will mean the return of the Shanahan\Gagne\Cole\Bozek curves....

Ugh, or the Easton Euro and Miller patterns.

Maybe a REAL Jagr or Kovalchuk

Kovalchuk's curve is already available at retail, Warrior Symth

I was talking about the one he uses when he gets called for an illegal stick

According to some people, that one still isn't legal.

are you saying that in the NHL now that the illegal curve he had would still be illegal with the 3/4" limit? Holy cow.
