AI Breakdown

At a glance

The Catalyst is way more affordable at $160 and gives you an authentic NHL-built stick with zero compromises on what you get, but you're locked into one flex and curve. The Novium 2 Pro costs more than double but gives you 20 flex options, two blade patterns to choose from, and noticeably lighter weight at 360g with premium carbon that'll feel more responsive on every shot.
