Old Bauer Curve

[JDhouston 4]

Anyone remember an old Bauer curve called P17? If so what would be a modern day version? I haven't had any luck finding one 

Thanks!

How old was it? Not P71? Peca?

that was similar to an old Iginla

I prefer to remember it as the Clark. It had a higher lie compared to the Iginla and more twist.  Warrior had a copy that was the McCarty and then Robitaille (I believe).

I'm going way back now, there was a Francis, I think it was P17 and Iginla like, Desjardins and Tverdovsky, one was a P23, Pronger P02, Lindros P88, Peca/Clark P71

Going back that far reminds me that the Lindros was originally a Modano/PM9 type pattern.

It may have switched to Graves? Trying to remember. I loved that curve. Since getting back on the ice last year I can't find anything I like.

Graves or Gratton turned into Pronger. 

Id look at CCM P38/P45 or Warrior W16, if my fuzzy curve memory is accurate. WinnWell also does/did a PP12 which copied Eastons old Iginla

Th Desjardins was p37 I believe

P71 was Clark and then Peca.  Short blade mid curve with a 7 lie. 

P23 was I believe Tverdosky.  Had a supreme 2000 in that pattern.  Nice blade

I think the confusion around the P17/Clark pattern might be because there was actually a Sherwood 'Clark' pattern before a Bauer one.

I'm pretty sure after Clark went to Bauer, Sherwood used the P17 to identify that curve going forward.

The first Clark pattern I recall was actually a Titan pattern, circa 1987ish.  This is my all-time favorite, but I can't find anything similar these days.  The closest is probably P88, but not the same.  I keep checking eBay for an old stick with that pattern, but no joy so far.
