Looking to get a new stick

I am in need of a new stick as my Bauer xx was recently sat on by an opposing player that broke it where the paddle meets the top part of the stick. What would you guys recommend. I don't think I want another one of these considering I had already broken the top foot of so of the stick of while taking a shot. I repaired it with a plug and it lasted about a month until this happened.

I just picked up a Biron CCM 10 Pro Stick (Buffalo-- Red & Black) and I would have to say it is my favorite stick to date. Light, balanced, flat blade but a nice curve. In my mind the perfect stick. Hard to find though.

your going to get a ton of different answers because everyone has different preferences. so heres my two cents haha

Nike Bauer 4500. nice wood finish with only one nike bauer logo so it matches almost every uniform. nice curve to get the puck up in the air if you can and surprisingly very light. but i would by like three just in case.

I second the 4500's, they last forever and it's as light as most composites. Far and away my favorite stick.

I've been using the new One75 stick (replacement for the XX) for the last month or so. Very nice stick IMO. Better than my 6K RBK; lighter and so far more durable.

Thanks guys. I'm actually hoping to find a stick that is able to get the puck in the air, so a good curve is a must. I am also not looking to spend over $100 if that helps. My previous stick was the vapor xx in response to one of you guys. It was a POS.

not a fan of the luongo. I use the garon curve on my RBKs and Thibault on my Sherwoods. Similar curves.

I recomend Sherwoods. 9950's

ive got turco curves on my rbks . and weekes curves on my sherwoods the weekes curve is horrible.

havent tried the turco on the ice yet. lol there all white with blue but they say turco on them

i heard the HUET curve on the rbk is really good.




PS. i had two luongos a P1 and a P2 they both broke in a week ( tryouts) the luongo is a decent stick . i would go with te huet over the luongo though.

I'm pretty sure you can raise the puck pretty high with almost any curve if you shoot it right.
