So long Sher-Wood

[PuckOff]

Sad news if you're a hockey fan especially a Canadian based hockey fan or former player.

I'll pull a Deuce (Douche) on you. When I played my Major Junior hockey in Ontario, the Sher-Wood PMP was by far my fav stick to use. Not once have I ever shot a puck with one of those new composite sticks. Long live the wooden hockey stick.

Hockey sticks manufactured in China is just wrong and plain dangerous. Especially composite sticks manufactured in China. The NHL better get ready for more stoppages in play due to broken/faulty sticks.

I had a sherwood in the early part of my career. RIP.

RIP Sher-Wood

I grew up playing street hockey with a Sher-Wood stick that was used in-game by former Habs forward Pierre Mondou. I still have it - the blade is about an inch high from all that scraping on concrete.

Some day I will think about making a video. Could be a great idea to try to get Blitty to cut his stick down.

Sherwood was good back in 95. Hasn't been relevant in years. Composites already are horrendous and break every 5 minutes.

I had a Denis Savard Canadien stick for a bit. It felt weird, too thin. Sher-Wood was the shit in the late 80's-early 90's.

Big fan of the mid 1990's Ray Bourque Sherwood stick.

Gotta pair of Sherwood gloves that I still use.

By far the best curve was Paul Coffey. It was definitely illegal.
