At a glance

The Pro Blackout is way more affordable at $180 CAD and gives you two flex options and two curve choices to dial in your feel, while the True HZRDUS is a pro-spec stick locked to one fixed 90-flex with the T28 curve that NHL players actually use. You're trading flexibility and price for genuine pro equipment built stiffer.
