Pick the Bauer Proto2

  • You shoot frequently from all areas and want a responsive mid-kick that handles slapshots and snapshots equally well
  • You're willing to pay for a stick that's 155g lighter, which directly improves stick speed and reduces fatigue
  • You want boron-reinforced carbon fiber that actually performs better under compression rather than standard blends

Pick the CCM Ribcor 94K

  • You're new to hockey or play casually and don't want to invest heavily in equipment
  • You prefer a low kick point for quick wrist and snap shots only, not slapshots
  • You want maximum curve options across all flex ranges for a younger or diverse player base
