AI Breakdown

At a glance

The JetSpeed FT860 is way more affordable and gives you multiple flex and curve options to find what works for you, but it's noticeably heavier. The True Catalyst is a genuine NHL-spec stick with a mid-kick that's proven on pro ice, but it's locked into one stiff flex and one curve, so it only works if that setup fits your shot.

Pick the CCM JetSpeed FT860

•You're new to hockey and want to learn what flex and curve actually feel like without dropping cash
•You need junior or intermediate sizing, since the Catalyst only comes in senior 115 flex
•You want durability over weight and don't mind a slightly heavier stick while you develop your game

Pick the True Catalyst 9X3 Pro Stock F. Gauthier

•You already know your shot and want exactly what NHL players use, not a recreational version
•You're a stronger player who can handle 115 flex and the TC2.5 curve works for your release
•You care about getting a real pro-spec build and don't need options to dial in
