I would've liked to see it.

[shotty 7]

Yeah, it was a strange stick. Really short, barely any curve and a small blade. Goes to show you it's the carpenter not the tools...

someone posted a pic of his stick after the olympic games. He and another player gave thier sticks to a Georgian figure skater. don't remember which member here knows her, or I'd credit them.

[JR Boucicaut 3803]

It was DarkStar50.

But I would've liked to see it in person, not a pic. I didn't even know it was at Summer Jam.

The Reebok rep had one of Crosby's actual sticks at the Summer Jam last month and we were all amazed at how low the lie was.

yeah it is interesting especially since it seems he plays the puck near his feet a lot, especially in around the boards.

i remember using a lie 5 instead of my usual 6, and i'd always lose the puck if it was too close to my feet, and get checked because my head is down.

Ovechkin S9.

[troy 12]

That doesn't look right on him, and props to whoever made sure to conceal it's not a CCM bucket.

[K9 Unit 1]

thats a s9

[shotty 7]

it does look weird... but I'm glad he's trying other equipment (debadged or not). it would be great to see "poster boys" go away.

[Speedz98 15]

Definitely not s19

[lampliter87 8]

Is it bad that I like the look?

[troy 12]

I don't think so. Lack of a visor also adds to the oddness.

back to crosby's stick, they had the olympic game winner stick of his in the hall of fame when I was there in July and as jds said, it was a really strange pattern, very flat.

It is a S19. The S19 is the lightest helmet currently available. Also with the background of Easton with Bell, Giro and Riddell behind them, they have a ton of helmet experience to make to safe. I think we will me seeing more Easton helmets the S19 this year on the ice.

its an S9, the S19 has mesh in the vents not foam

[IniNew 53]

Actually, the S19 does not have mesh in the vents. The S17 does, though.

For the easiest way to tell its not an S19, the gap between the from and back pieces of the helmet at the top.

[JR Boucicaut 3803]

S9. S9 has the waffle foam, S17 has mesh in the vents, S19 doesn't have anything in the vent. Plus, the gap on the top of the helmet is a dead giveaway.

Check out the nasty hook on Homer's Dolo haha. Good for deflections though I bet

[AIREAYE 248]

haha I had a teammate bring in a pair of Prostock Easton SL's of Holmstrom's...straight blade even two years ago lol

Holy crap! That is a paddle!

[AIREAYE 248]

thing is, the kid wasn't even the net camper either, so I dunno why he spent the money lol. I suppose Homer has two curves or something, one for the PP (straight blade) and maybe another curve or two

[skyscrape 5]

I could see using something like a p91a. I thought that was a paddle. Plus you can chip it top shelf no problem, but that thing is a PADDLE!

those practice jerseys are just awful

[adam14 182]

would make sense, a close friend of toews' that i know told me that he had like 8 different curves on his warriors this year.

If you are referring to the one Holmstrom is wearing, I disagree. I like em! Too each his own.
