At a glance
The Catalyst 9X3 is a genuine NHL pro stock build locked into one flex and one curve, while the Novium 2 SP is way more affordable, covers a much wider flex range, and gives you three curve options to choose from. Most players will notice the Novium is heavier but the Catalyst is only available in a stiff 115 flex that rules out a lot of shooters.
