Quick question...most appropriate here....but might have been addressed before.

Ovey has those red (8) shoulder pads. Are those planned for a CCM release?

Curious that we haven't seen any X:60 sticks yet in the playoffs. I would have expected to see a few pop up by now with the release coming near the holidays, create a little buzz and all.

They're custom made for him I believe, not sure weather (sp?) we'll ever see them retail. Look like CCM body with Rbk (Jofa) shoulder caps.

Honestly?

Strange that they wouldn't take advantage of playoff exposure at this point.

Remember the Lidstrom helmet pic JR got? It was a little later in the playoffs... and the S17 he was using was still painted up to look like a CNT stealth.

All 3 Staals are using X60 sticks with current graphics. X60 graphics will be out this summer at Olympic camps.

Honestly have to say I don't notice anything different, other then the taper but that could just be me.

The only player using X60 on the Flyers is Gagne. Upshall was using it as well.

Strange that they wouldn't take advantage of playoff exposure at this point.

It's rare that a player will change graphics this late in the season. Too much superstition.

Theyll change the stick, but not the graphics?

All the X60 guys have been using them just about all season. Jordan Staal is the only one using a Vapor graphic. Vapor for the most part is a light colored stick. Players who switch sticks now are in the minority. Plus, there are a ton of sticks at retail that need to be sold before launching another stick. Dealers would pissed off.

How is Gagne the only one using it if Upshall was using it too?

:P
