Reebok 8.0.8 pro stock blade patterns...

Recommended Posts

I was looking to buy a Reebok 8.0.8 pro stock from hockey monkey, but they only have some of the blade patterns shown in their chart.

I currently have an 8.0.8 pro stock that has no marking on it at all, but it is almost identical to the RBK P-30 bergeron retail pattern aside of the blade is slightly longer and a tad bit rounder. I love this pattern and was wondering if anyone could tell me if there are any on the hockey monkey site that would be the same or close to what I have now? I am RH and would like the 100 flex if possible, but if there is an 85 flex with the right pattern, I would go for that too. Here's a link to the page on hockey monkey that lists the patterns available.

http://www.hockeymonkey.com/reebok-pro-sto...-stick-808.html

In the pattern chart they have a Parenteau blade pattern that looks somewhat similar, but seems a little more open. Has anyone seen this in person?

Also, I just got off the phone with customer service at hockey monkey and they say that they wouldn't know what any of the patterns look like or what the specs are of any of the pro stocks...just whatever is on the site.

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Thanks!!!

Not sure if it's wood or not, but I've seen that Spezza pattern in person and it's more open than I like and it's shaped a little weird for me.

I will get the Spezza pattern on Feb 10th... Keep you posted... It did look like wood in the picture, but the description reads differently. We will see how legit Hockeymonkey is...

I received mine yesterday along with the Perron. I was a tad disappointed that it was indeed wood, BUT after using for about an hour at my boys practice I am now loving the blade so much that I just ordered another one. The blade I thought responds really well and really lets you feel the puck, the thing is also really thin. I'll post pics in a bit.

Blade thickness compared to the Perron 8.0.8. (Spezza's is on the right)

Not going to lie....I'm a little pissed at the moment. Thought the blade in the picture looked different, but the description said "graphite" so I wasn't worried. Email sent, we will see what happens....

Definitely could have called or emailed. I read the description, and took it as fact. Retailers have a responsibility to describe their products accurately. Errors are a part of human nature, but good customer service can fix any error.

Trust me, HM employees wouldn't have known that anyways. They have some of the worst informed employees that I have ever dealt with, especially when it comes to pro stock items.

Has any seen or purchased the Parenteau pattern? Any pics? I've looked all over the internet and can't find any. I also checked the patterndb website and it looks like that last updates for pics were in 2007 so they didn't have this pattern pictured.

Thanks....just saw that. Does that look similar to a Sakic curve or is that more like an Iginla or P88 (Lindros/Kane)?

Kind of hard to tell. I was hoping to see a pic of the blade on the ground.

D11 = Sakic

I was asking about the LH Greentree specifically though. I'm trying to find out length! Edit: Also Filpulla length and lie if anyone knows it.

Ignore the letters, the number denotes the pattern.

SK-11 = K11 = D11 = H11 = they all are the sakic

10 = Roenick

11 = Sakic

13 = Darby/Vanek

14 = Modano/Zetterberg/Forsberg

15 = Drury/Ovechkin

16 = Old Lecavalier

17 = Iginla

19 = Doan

J = Jagr

FC = Fischer

SKL = Skoula
