Reebok & Modano?

[EndBoards 0]

I got a flyer for Reebok's new equipment in the mail yesterday. I was suprised to see Modano as one of the guys endorsing their products. There was a picture of him in Reebok skates and - here's the big suprise - a Modano blade pattern on the sticks page..

I always thought he was picky about using CCM skates (652's I think) and was one of Easton's biggest names..

Did he sign a deal or something? Since the Modano pattern is probably Easton's most popular, what are they left with?

Easton now calls the curve "forsberg". He almost went to CCM last year (03-04) as well.

Yeah, Mo, Pronger, Cujo, Amonte, etc signed with Reebok in January (at least, the press release came out in January)

Modano didn't have an endorsement deal with Easton for a couple of years. They were getting his name for free.

As someone posted earlier, he has a dog to feed. The endorsement money must be good.

I'm sure you would do the same. Don't stray too far...
