Can I ask a dumb question?

Recommended Posts

Really?

What about when Shanahan had his curve for a while. It was a pretty big curve, but then I heard he changed it and then Easton changed it to how he liked it.

Where did you hear that?

The pro shannys that I saw were small mid curves with very little loft. The local college coach used to use them.

With some brands they do, some of the Fury blades are exactly what those players use. Inno used to do the same with some of their blades.

don't know if mine's a dumb question, but why do they name it after the players then especially the kovalchuk? is it just for marketing purposes?

The kovalchuk (P91) curve was being made before he came into the league/got sponsored through bauer. IIRC, it actually was the original St. Louis curve. Since they have the molds for it already, and there are people using the curve, it's much easier to just give kovy a curve that already exists. Same story with easton forsberg (formerly modano) and Mission Boyes (formerly Elias/Gaborik).
