So nice to remember the good ol days when arenas weren't blasting music every other second. Oh no, 3 seconds of no sound, we can't have that....Also: 13 year old Zdeno Chara watching, thinking "I will break you"....

Well they used wooden sticks and that thing doesnt flex like your composite stick

I was there. It was the first time that the NHL All-Star game featured the skills competition. Mario Lemieux would dominate the actual game the following afternoon at the old Civic Arena in Pittsburgh. That was in February of 1990 and the All-Star game hasn't returned to Pittsburgh since. I would say it's overdue. Lets Go Pens!

2:45 And with the sticks from the last 15 years or so you want to do the opposite and hit the ice in front of the puck to create a whip action.

@Buffalosabskis 4 жыл бұрын

Yokes27 I think you mean behind the puck haha. So the stick can flex and slingshot it. Some players still use this method talked about in the vid. A few players still use wood sticks. Chara has a very high flex. Meaning it’s harder to bend and he just smacks the puck fairly close to it. Other people like Kessel and Ovechkin have low flexes and let the stick do all the work

@@Buffalosabskis yes well depends on how you read it. Im pretty sure paul stastny was the last to use a wooden stick like 10 years ago. The stiffer the better for wrist shots comes off the stick quicker.

@@Buffalosabskis whoever told you ovechkin uses a low flex is a liar. Ovechkin uses a 105 flex which is one of the highest offered

@Buffalosabskis Жыл бұрын

@@jproc69 100 is about the lowest you will see an NHL player use. That's what everyone used when I was in high-school. I had a 120 flex in college. 105 is low for a guy over 200lbs
