Pick the True HZRDUS 9X4 Pro Stock Ryan Johansen

  • You're a pure sniper who shoots quick release from tight areas
  • You have the strength to handle pro-spec stiffness (100 flex is legit stiff)
  • You want NHL-level specs without paying retail prices
  • You already know the TC2 curve works for your shot

Pick the Warrior Novium 2 Pro

  • You take shots from everywhere and need one stick that handles it all
  • You want a stick that's noticeably lighter (360g matters for fatigue)
  • You need flexibility to choose between 75 or 85 flex
  • You prefer a mid-kick that feels more forgiving on off-angle attempts
