What lie are your sticks?

[TheBert 0]

I've always used a 5 lie and tried a 6....much too weird to the point that I keep fanning on shots (even more than usual). A lot of PP but I'm curious if taller guys use a higher lie in general.

Usual lie: 5

5'10" 160lbs forward

Drury 5.5

Ribeiro 5.5

[sc37 0]

6' 155

Best I've used is a Lidstrom 5.5 lie...could do a 5 or 6 in a pinch (been using a Kovalchuk or Gagne/Jokinen lately), but I like the rocker of the Lidstrom.

6' 180 lbs forward i bounce between my custom 5030's stick with a 3 lie, very nice, and XXX lites with a 6, depends on how im feeling.

[Buzz_LightBeer 974]

5-10 185

i like a 4 lie or there abouts, i play defense and cut my sticks to my eyes, sometimes forehead

[T-Dot. 0]

6', 195lbs. Cut sticks anywhere from (on bare feet) lips to center of eyeballs,

mainly the latter.

iginla 5.5 & federov 4 (<<< warrior lie so......)

[TheProfessor 2]

Currently back to a 5.5 Coffey curve. I switched to a lie 6 Yzerman, and loved how i could handle the puck closer to my body when playing D, but then I started to realize it was creating bad habits. I wasn't bending my knees as much when I was skating cause I didn't have to, and my skating with the puck got a bit awkward.

I wish Easton still made the curve that was basically a Yzerman but with a 5.5 lie instead of 6 (can't remember the name, gaborik maybe?)

[Cobra2717 0]

5'8" 175 lbs Defenseman. Stick cut at my chin on skates.

Lies:

PM9 - 5

Heatley - 5

Modano - 5

[The Stranger 0]

5'10", I use 6 or 7 lie

I am mostly a shooter/crease crashing type player so I like a short stick and often have to handle pucks close to my feet. In barefeet my stick is between my chin and bottom lip.

[opus22 0]

6'4"

warrior 4 lie. basically a sherwood 5, a little lower than the easton 5. i had trouble at first with loose pucks in my feet around the net, but everything else is a lot better - and i got used to the loose pucks. shooting, puckhandling, pokechecking - im more comfortable with the lower lie. i used to use sakics.

[mac23 0]

5'8" 145 lbs. Forward

Use mainly 5. Have tried 5.5 and 6, but 5 seems to work best.

[Remman 0]

6'3" 6 lie, can't use anything else...

[Jarick 5]

5'8", 170 lbs, forward, stick cut at nose barefeet.

Heatley (5 lie)

Recchi (5 lie)

I can go between 5 and 5.5 lie pretty easily, although I prefer 5. I'm not a great skater, really need to bend my knees more and keep my feet moving. I do keep my top hand up pretty high so I have an easier time stickhandling in close.

[wickedlite44 0]

5'10" lie 5 modano curve cut about 2-3 inches off.

[NTKT10 0]

6' 200lbs forward. Currently use a Datsyuk, which is a 6 lie. My stick is cut about an inch below my chin on skates.
