LOL i was about to roll in here with that (therma blade stuff)

Gotta love how he says that about composite sticks, yet has zero problem with Thermablade being in the NHL.

Yeah, that was his credibility going out the window.

You beat me to it, and I can't believe it took someone 4 pages to get to that point. IMHO the thermablade is gimmick, and he's supporting it. Changing wood to composite material isn't anywhere near as bad as what their trying to pull what that device. Big Wayne can get the big middle

I went there on the first page.

Yes, composite sticks are the biggest problem facing the NHL right now.

i think that composites are much better when it comes to wrist shots and things of that sort but the blades just have a lot of bounce when a puck hits them. Sure this is good on say something like one-timers, but when being passed to while using a wood blade, it absorbs the hit and sticks to the blade.

Pros catch passes harder than we shoot.

according to what the guy said at the bottom of the article wood sticks are mostly better because they can be recycled. Never taken that view on it.
