Jagrmullet 8 Report post Posted June 6, 2011 (edited) I saw Henrick Zetterber Warrior Widow at the Red Wings sale. It does have the taper same Widow taper as the retail Widow, however the stick is considerably beefed up. The Easton he was using before was a thin taper with Elliptical Profile Concave taper too. The lie was low, 5ish for sure. Edited June 6, 2011 by Jagrmullet Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I wanted to ask you about the Bauer Supreme pants you got, is the hip padding in those like those in the retail Bauer Totalone pants? Read more I'm not sure. I don't have them with me right now, but I'll post pics when I get them back. Edited June 6, 2011 by robat Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jagrmullet 8 Report post Posted June 6, 2011 (edited) I also looked Pavel Datsyuk's much talked about stick. It did feel "heavier" then most sticks about but nothing crazy. The blade was long, gentle curve. Not much different from his RBK retail blade. The lie was about average, 6ish. The stick was a sturdy pro stock. The blade felt very strong.

Try it with a Bauer 5 lie vs a 6 lie. I have been doing it for over 20 years. It was just rough estamites on each stick. You can't tell the difference to the .25 of a lie, thats not possible. The Zetterberg stick was considerably flat. Edited June 6, 2011 by Jagrmullet Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Read more Yeah see that's the thing, I'm sure you know but taking a Bauer lie 5, a Warrior lie 5 and some other random prostock lie 5 and they will all vary slightly. Then again there will be people who cut sticks etcetc and that really makes it more difficult to recommend lies Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I asked for the unmounted boot, and they sent me holders in the wrong size (263 for a 5.5 skate), probably for some junior-senior sizing snafu.Anyway, I had a pair of old Flexlite 18s that I had converted to roller so I had the Tuuk LS2 254s lying around... and they just happen to look nice with the blue accent!

Because to be honest, mine weren`t as great as I thought it`d be. I mean, the feel was fantastic and all, but it wasn`t as flexible or mobile as some other pro stock gloves I`ve come to see. Furthermore, the cuff protection is very good, however I`ll be shortening them in due time, just too long for my taste. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
icewalker_bg 126 Report post Posted June 8, 2011 just bought this, thinking to give ccm another try. i hated the old u+ and u+ cl since i broke them really fast, and im not the kind of guy to take slappers often, my sticks last longer than usual.anyways i start to think this might be some kind of repaint, its a retail stick with warranty and all, with ovie's old retail curve 102-2, which i dont see anywhere online and even in the catalog that curve is not there it seems to have changed to sakic like with the 2011 cl. but this stick doesnt look or feel anything like the old cl. any insight? judge for yourself!
