How are the P88's different?

I was expecting the toned-down Sakic but this is what I got:

damn my pucks would be flying all over the place with that xP too open for me

How are the P88's different?

The P88 is a closed face, deep mid curve.

I meant to ask TBL, who was saying it changed a lot over the years.

It was Easton pro stock time at Halfmoon's den the last couple of days...

This is the apple of my eye...Viktor Kozlov's curve is my favorite pro curve - bar none. Extreme heel curve, square toe with a 7 lie. The height of the blade doesn't exceed 2.5 inches anywhere, with a length of 9.5, so it's perfect for maximum puck control. It also has a pretty flat bottom, which makes it even more perfect. For me, that is. :)

I can't begin to express how stoked I am to have this. Another member here is hooking me up with a Kozy Dolo...

Kozlov S17 -

Got this from a friend inside the Yotes organ-I-zation...

Z Michalek SE16. It's a nice stick, but I'm not quite as stoked on this as I am the Kozzy...

It's been changed at least 3 times since the last Bauer stick I bought.

[xstartxtodayx 340]

wow, how is that Kozlov curve legal? That thing is crazy.

[furlanitalia 1]

I was just gonna say the same thing. That is an insane kozlov curve.

we have bunch of his macdaddy's at local lhs..........too bad he wasnt lefty

Haha dude that kozlov is nassty!! I'm pretty sure I couldn't even make it down the rink one time with that beast holding onto the puck. 7 lie tho how tall are you man?

[Hockeyman11385 1]

That Kozlov curve is absolutely hideous (in the nicest possible meaning of the word). I just can't imagine playing with something like that.

To EdgeKid3: You don't really have to be tall to have lie 7. He might use a short stick and like to stick handle and shoot close to his feet.

Yeah, she is hideously beautiful!

To answer your question, I'm average height - 5'10 - but I love the way a higher/tighter lie plays for my style of skating and overall style of play. (like Hockeyman mentioned) I like playing with the puck closer to my body, and I can also get more efficient shots off. Ironically, it also allows me to control the puck more. Not that it would be an ideal setup for everyone, but it's one thing I've found that really works for me and my style of play.

really cups that puck huh ^.- ... does the puck roll off the heel real easily though? i love the lie 7 part though lol

[SpartanHOCKEY12 0]

Most of those are to look at your glove collection....aren't they?

[HattrickSwayze 3]

In celebration of the millionth view, can you put up these mythical pictures of your stick collection I keep hearing about?? I've never been able to find them.

[dsjunior1388 81]

Millionth view gets custom MSH warrior franchises courtesy of JR! (I didn't say it, but now that you mention it...)

[furlanitalia 1]

Wow, that's pretty crazy. Is this also the longest MSH post?

[-knowlzey- 0]

Impressive. 1 million views is a lot of time spent on this one thread lol.

[tamtamg 12]

Just got a couple pro stock one95 in. They're actually XXXX but for $105 each i can't complain.

the curve (taped stick is a sackic for reference)

the lie. any guesses on what the lie might be?

I think I'm developing a problem

[adam14 182]

the lack of rocker is somewhat uncomforting. i dunno if i could use that flat of a blade.

[furlanitalia 1]

Wow, that is peculiar to look at (flat blade) Great looking stick though!

Is the six digit code above the flex specific to the blade? (0678-16)

Reason I ask is I have a Seidenberg one95 with an awesome curve, would like to know if theres a way to know exactly what the numbers mean? (I believe it says 102 and C beneath the six digit code)

i don't think theres a rhyme or reason behind the the 6 digit number. It's just the pattern number that the blade has been assigned. same thing with pro stock skates, if you take out the insole you can see the # for foot mold that was used. Just makes it easier for the pros/equipment managers to re-order equipment. the number below that is usually the flex. and below the flex is usually the model name.
