I can't find a picture but Zaitsev is using a new Warrior stick tonight vs the Penguins. Looks like the it says Warrior "Alpha" on it....new successor to HD1 probably....

It replaces the Dynasty but isn't an updated Dynasty.

It feels nothing like a Dynasty that's for sure. Really, really excited for this one. Warrior's in a great place right now.

Any thing you can maybe compare it to that's been out in the last little bit?

That's intriguing! Can you comment on the blade at all? I used a teammates HD1 briefly and didn't like the blade at all...Felt...Mushy? But briefly messing with a QRL was totally the opposite, that felt really crisp.

Anybody else notice the Warrior visors on the Finns tonight in pre-tourney action?

Rebranded Hejduksport visors. Just like Fischer, Frontier etc.

It may have already been covered, and may not come out because of the buyout by Bauer, but there was supposed to be one more Stealth, called the CS or SS IIRC. Am I crazy or is / was that happening?

It took CCM three years to run out of adjectives to put with Tacks.

It depends. It could signal a special minor update release, akin to the iPhone X, followed by the iPhone Xs, then finally the iPhone X+1. Maybe not though.

I'm not sure, but it was more to poke fun at CCM. My first thought when the Tacks came out in 2014 was that they'd run out of numbers to slap on the lower cost variants, then the Ultra Tacks came out and I was wondering how many adjectives they'd be able to use. What you're saying is entirely possible, but in a market that doesn't need small changes, the small upgrade thing may not be good. Although, from my understanding, the Super Tacks was pretty nice.

Isn't it ironic; don't ya think?

And yet that song doesn't have a single ironic thing in it, which is the only thing that is ironic about the song.

I wouldn't be surprised. They have maintained brand visibility on sticks in the pros so I suppose it is a possibility.

Speak for yourself, I wanted Thumb Tacks to be released. I'd buy a couple to try just from making me chuckle.

I was thinking Lego Tacks, as long as we're building our own.

With the price of gear these days, I'm thinking Income Tacks or Personal Property Tacks. That's right, accounting humor, get over it.
