At a glance
The Proto2 is a premium stick built for shot accuracy with a mid kick, while the HockeyStickMan is way more affordable at less than half the price with a low kick and way more curve options. You're paying extra for Bauer's carbon fiber tech and mid kick performance, but if budget matters and you want flexibility on blade patterns, the HockeyStickMan delivers solid value.
