AI Breakdown

At a glance

The JetSpeed FT8S gives you four flex options and four blade patterns to dial in your exact preference, while the True Catalyst is a single fixed 105-flex build that's way more affordable if you match its specs. The CCM is the safer choice if you're still figuring out what you like; the True is the smart choice if you already know you want a mid-kick, stiff NHL pattern and want to save money.

Pick the CCM JetSpeed FT8S Senior

  • You need flexibility choosing your flex and curve instead of being locked into one setup

Pick the True Catalyst 9X3 Pro Stock Tomas Lavoie

  • You already shoot a 105-flex and the TC4 curve is your go-to pattern
  • You want legitimate NHL gear at a fraction of retail cost
  • You prefer a stiffer stick and have the strength to load it properly
