Need a new stick, RBZ or Nexus 1000

[TheDirtiestFlop 0]

Hey guys im looking for a new stick since I broke my RBZ and my Nexus 1000 this weekend in a tourney, whatever im gonna buy, its gonna be 2 of the same. I used a lecavlier 85 flex left and a kane 87 flex. I just don't know which one to choose, I loved the RBZ but went through 4 of them, and when those broke, I used the nexus and like it. so which one should I go with? What is most comparible to the LEC curve?

From what you're saying it sounds like you want the Nexus more. I owned two RBZ sticks when they came out and I thought they shot very well. The downside was the lack of feel when stickhandling and passing though.

As for the pattern the PM9 would probably be the closest but with a longer blade. Bauer does not make a Lecavalier/Iginla.

Nexus. I've tried both and the Nexus outshines the RBZ in every facet.

I'm a big fan of the Nexus, haven't tried the RBZ yet but if you've broken 4 of them then maybe they're not the stick for you?

yeah, im guessing if youve broken that many RBZ you might want to get a nexus, or look into a different stick entirely.

well im all for going to another stick, I just LOVE the lecavlier curve

Nexus no question

If you take any decent number of slapshots, or are rough on blades, avoid the RBZ, I'll go NEXUS as well

If u cut more 2 inch of Nexus, it's feels dramatically...
