Yea it does. Just saw one of his woodies last weekend and was in awe. I did have a pic around somewhere...

Tanguay has a pretty filthy toe curve as well. Big blade though.

I still haven't figured out how to shoot with the Lehoux, a couple of partial coaching sessions and I gave up.

What's the flex on that sum'bitch? I'll take it off your hands if you're giving up :lol:

[TBLfan 25]

Regular flex.

I think I mentioned earlier in this thread how much I loved that stick. I used his prostocks back in high school when he was still with the blues. Brings back memories. . .

Edit: actually earlier I said I'd love to use the Koivu curve if i could find it.

And I thought the old Yzerman curve was wicked. Wow, that looks like it'd be hard enough just to stickhandle with it...

kinked the toe on an old blade a few years ago and it ended up looking like that. couldnt shoot for beans with it

The thing that is weird is that I can shoot with it fine... but the accuracy I couldn't get down. I could pretty much hit a 4' by 2' target but had no idea where it was going within that target.

That koivu looks pretty close to my havlat.

So then you really can't shoot with it eh?

[TBLfan 25]

It flies! Just about as accurate as a C.Dingman snapshot.

I want to vomit on the koivu curve. It's no wonder he has no shot/never shoots.

Okay so some people were saying with a toe hook you can just have the puck at the toe and fling it to the net, but if you do that how do you put any flex on the stick?

[TBLfan 25]

Same as any other pattern.

If you were referring to my post; I was talking about in close, shoveling the puck over the goalie.

[raygunpk 0]

Ahh okay. And you were right, these low lies are tough.

It leads to the ultimate fake-out. You eye the top corner and release, goalie watches goes for that corner and all the sudden the puck flies the other direction.

Was eyeing down a Smyth yesterday...if my team wasn't moving me to D I'd be scrambling to pick one up. I find pure toe curves for me aren't as good as mid-toe, but that's my shooting style. I think I like a curve that is almost curved through the entire length of the blade, even if it's slight.
