chippa13 1844 Report post Posted November 30, 2007 It was the Carter, going forward it is probably the Tanguay or Sundin. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AnthonyJTa 0 Report post Posted December 1, 2007 from the looks of the '08 Catalog... Sundin is my best guess. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Leafsrok 0 Report post Posted December 1, 2007 after looking at the catalogue, it is most certainly the Sundin Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AnthonyJTa 0 Report post Posted December 1, 2007 It's the ProStock blade patterns, so I'm not sure if it differs from retail.so are you looking for a "Mission prostock blade equivalent to a Drury retail"?? Because the initial question was not so specific. Anywhoo, maybe some of the prostock guru's can give a little more input. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
5minutesforfighting 0 Report post Posted December 1, 2007 Yes, I'm looking for a Mission ProStock blade similar to Easton Drury retail...sorry for not clarifying it a bit more. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zac911 317 Report post Posted December 1, 2007 Pro Stock Drury in Mission? HB741 Ballard Pattern is a Drury clone ( the curve cuts straight over rather than rounding its way though the toe- personal favorite ) and the A621 Heatley Pattern is also close ( slightly longer blade and opens up a touch more ). hope this helps.@ RetailSundin will be Drury Hainsey will be LidstromRafalski is SakicNo more Ribeiro Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Zac911 317 Report post Posted December 2, 2007 i know what the catalogue says, but it is an early print and nothing is absolutely final. the last i heard was that the Lidstrom is going to be HAINSEY. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If it's a pattern you like, from a brand you want to support, it shouldnt matter if it says Scooby Doo.i know that, but how many people under the age of 13(a lot of companies target market) don't care about what type of curve it is. a lot of people look for their favourite players name or the "curve they use" and buy that stick.either that or they look for the coolest looking stick thats says "RBK" on it cuz thats what Crosby uses Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

zales17 0 Report post Posted October 4, 2008 sorry to bring this baby back from the dead, but I have a quick question regarding the older "drury clone" (carter) and the new "drury clone" (sundin).I see that the sundin is listed as a 6 (making it a higher lie than an easton drury). My question is this: is the old carter curve the same lie as the new sundin (ie higher than the easton drury) or is it the same lie as the easton drury?Any and all help is greatly appreciated Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
