The Nexus E4 gives you a much wider curve selection and a hybrid kick point in a proven retail package, while the Catalyst 9X3 Pro Stock is a genuine NHL-spec build locked to one flex and one curve. If Lindstrom's TC90TT pattern fits your game, the pro-stock layup is hard to beat at this price point.
