At a glance
The Value Blackout is way more affordable at $80 USD and gives you a much wider curve selection, but it's heavier and built with variable carbon construction. The Code Encrypt Pro Stock is a genuine NHL-spec stick with a balanced hybrid kick, but you're locked into one flex and one curve for nearly three times the price.
