Anyone else use the Warrior Lidstrom pattern?

[epstud74 24]

I picked up a Warrior Dolomite DD with a Lidstrom pattern recently and to my surprise, I love the pattern. Anyone else have little to no trouble adjusting coming from a P92/P14/Sakic?? How about the Dolomite DD? This is not the Dolomite with the crappy blade issue is it? I had an HD blade and got rid of that pretty quickly

I'm just absolutely bombing my slapshots with this stick. I'm not a big Warrior fan, but damn..this stick or pattern really feels good when I wind up and let it go. I'm thinking about grabbing an Easton ST with this pattern as well.

 Yeah, the Lidstrom is nice for slappers, but a touch too open for my taste. Edited: I was thinking of the Rbk pro stock Lidstrom, not sure about the Warrior pro pattern.

What is the lidstrom pro stock like? Is it the same as the lidstrom retail? How much different is the bauer p106 from the lidstrom curve?

couldn't the stick be a retail stick seeing as lidstrom is the new name for the jovo pattern?

Sorry, my post was poorly written. I was wondering what curve Lidstrom actually uses. I know that is the retail curve and I am wondering if D-men tend to use it in the NHL. I have been using the P91 a and was thinking about trying either the Warrior Kovalev retail or Lidstrom retail curve next.

The warrior Kovalev will be a replica of the P91A. The Lidstrom is more open.

IIRC it is a square toe Yzerman Pro. JR can confirm.

I actually now use the Warrior Lidstrom retail (coming from a p92) and LOVE it. Not much adjustment to deal with except getting used to catching passes with the flat bottom (for me at least). I figured out that a heel would benefit my technique much more than a mid-toe.

I remember the Lidstrom pro being a mid and not a heel. Pretty flat and closer to a more mid-version of the Modano/Zetterberg than a Drury.

yeah theres a handful of pro players that use the lidstrom retail pattern.

edler and ohlund come to mind immediately

That was my impression as well. Not all that different from the Shanny pro.

[epstud74 24]

I was under the impression the Lidstrom pro pattern had more of a rounded toe than square.

I might have to give it a try!

I also use lidstrom retail occasionally my regular curve is forsberg. Has anyone tried filing down the toe at the bottom of the blade where it meets the ice to give I a bit more of a rocker? sometime I find it hard when the puck gets in close to your feet and only the corner of the blade is touching the ice.
