Can you identify this pro stock curve?

Hey everyone, got a picture from a buddy of mine who was in a LHS the other day. He knew I was looking for some type of toe curve. Stick is a Bauer pro stock and is a one95. No name on the stick (edit: apparently there was a nameplate). Is this the Ovi curve or what are we looking at here?

[noodle3872 40]

Mike Richards uses a curve similar to that. What color is the graphics on the stick?

[malcb33 99]

Hossa, maybe?

A buddy of mine had a xxxx Hossa and that is what it looked like!

haha sorry, already pulled the trigger over the phone before they closed. getting it tomorrow... but i'll let you know if i don't like it.

To tell if it's a hossa, we need to know primarily how tall it is. I think we can rule out Ovechkin though :P

[hockeyshmockey10 0]

I will post detailed pics tomorrow as well as height/measurements. I was told over the phone that it doesn't have the same finish on the blade... I'll see exactly what that means tomorrow when I pick it up.

I agree with the others, looks exactly like a Hoss stick, even has the correct flex.

Pretty sure its Bauers left handed Ovechkin mirror, a local rep told me it was a pro option in consideration for retail.

The curve and P08 are what made me think that, even tho it does look like a Hossa. I have a couple Ovie One95s headed my way and I can't wait to rope that steer.

My pants would need to be washed if this were the case

You and me both friend...

I keep going back and forth about buying a pro stock Ovie stick, but can't justify the $250 on it...

I know that day will most likely never come, but if it does I will shit my pants with delight.

It does look like a mirrored Ovechkin/Samsonov or a Hossa though. Nice looking stick.

has a toe hook ever succeeded at retail?

now of course if it's got ovy's name on it, we can probably guarantee that it will sell, let's hope they bring it down to the 67 flex level if they decide to, goalie's beware!

To guys that work at shops, since we're talking about Ovechkin's name, did Drury-style curves sell well before the CCM Ovechkin pattern?

And, about regular consumers buying a hook like that, I know of a lot of beer leaguers that love banana curves and don't really understand whether it's a mid or a toe, just that it looks big.

Since it's LH it's not an Ovechkin pro stock obviously.

My guess is Brashear :)

[automorph 0]

^^ Brashear uses something stiffer than 87 flex no?

I had a one90 of his and it was 112 flex

Why would Easton continue to make the Drury curve if it wasn't successful?

Thats why I used a Gaborik for the longest time, before I realized I could actually stick handle with a heatley.

I'm assuming Bauer wouldn't be allowed to market it as an Ovechkin curve though. He is under contract with CCM which would make him off limits for Bauer.

here's my old SE shaft/Warrior Pro stock hossa blade combo. Hope it helps.

There is other "Hoss" curves out there that have a bigger hooks, particularily in Warrior.

As you can see it has much deeper curve than my last year's Marian Hossa (Marcel has even less if i recall correctly) so unless he changed his pattern that's not it.

Edit: Can't imagine playing with a bigger hook on it. Hitting(unintentionally) crossbar from the crease while dragging the puck behind me happened to me numerous of times.
