I think you should have mentioned the stick lie also, I think it's quite important. If I am not mistaken P29 = lie 6, P28 = lie 5 ( CCM sticks) P90TM dunno. I thinks that''s all we can get here in Europe in retail.
The p28 was literally created for quicker shots. It’s the most “shooter” focused curve here lol. If you want a curve just to lift it quick around the net, dust off a p91 and hit the rafters from the crease
Awesome video. In future it would be nice to hear Tommy break down more than how the shots feel. Maybe stick handling, saucer pass and backhand shots would be good things to mention when reviewing curves. Love the content! Keep it up.
It’s all personal preference. I always used a Modano style blade and just started playing again for the first time since 2010 or so and the curves these days are crazy. All my shots with these open blades just go right over the net even from the far blue line, but I bought some Modano Blade styles and started hitting the sweet spots again. I’m just so use to being the one to force the pucks up not the curve.
I use Bauer vapor line but not all beer League guys want to use $ 300 to $400 dollar sticks in my games I use the Bauer vapor x 3.7 and I use the Bauer vapor 3 x stick it be cool to see you do a video on the lower end Bauer vapor sticks and I play hockey in Toronto Canada been a fan of these videos for a long time
Can someone with some experience & knowledge pls tell me what wood stick I can buy nowadays that resembles any one of these curves or something similar to the old easton classic Yzerman curve? It seems to me the Yzerman curve is basically a P28 but I need some advice.
@@HockeyTutorialOfficial i live in germany and bought a agent 5 p88 curve if i remember correctly u live in the uk but i dont now about shipping costs...
My favorite was the CCM P30(mix of p88 and p28) but sadly it’s been discontinued. I find some here and there online that I buy. Might try the p90tm as it is more available and seems like I’d like it
All my P30s are on their last legs, I bought one of these because it’s the closest I can get without a custom or haggling with some on sideline for a 5 year old stick. Lol.
I went from the p29-p28-p90TM and as much as I love the p28 the p90TM just feels better to me.. I like to be able to kinda do it all.. so it works for me. My kids on the p28 kick now but he is definitely more the down in front grinder. So perfect video explaining the curves I say!
P90-TM is such a great curve in terms of handling the puck and still having that toe to bring pucks in for a quick snapshot. I work at our local hockey shop and I've been preaching P90-TM to a lot of people using P28 and P29 and I've converted a lot of people over 😂
Unless I'm mistaken, this video completely misses the point of P90TM .. which is that it's specced very close to the max height allowed for sticks, meaning that it's noticable better for deflections and picking passes; thus, it's a great option for defensive players. Why isn't Chris or Tommy aware of this? CCM’s response to the max blade height is the new curve called the Tavares P90TM, which is a fusion between the toe on the P28 and the rest of the blade of the P29 while flattening the bottom and changing the lie. While it isn’t a max height, it is taller than any other CCM blade offering.
Totally hear you Anders. Regardless of what the manufacturers advertise, we aren’t trying to repeat what they say. We aim to share what WE feel on the ice. You can’t feel a significant difference between these blades regarding height. If it was max height, totally different scenario. Tommy’s feedback was “I mean its all well and good a stick being good for that. But if you’re not good at picking passes or deflecting, then the blade having a little extra height means nothing 🤷🏻”

"tapes one twig like its his own" aka tapes the toe. then the other two he just tapes normal. Then they proceed to say he favorites one curve and then we will be surprised to see which one he picks. bruh... you gave it away with the tape jobs hahah. I love yall hahha!
I currently use a p29 but looking switch to p90tm or p28. I hear the p90tm is hybrid of the two which sounds good to me because i want the toe of the p28 for toe drags and heel of p29 for being able backhand shots still. would you say the p90tm is good at toe drags like the p28?
@@rocketchannel3719 just picked up a P88 hyperlite, I’m pretty sure the Trigger series has P88 too. I’ll be sad if it ever goes away that’s for sure. But with guys like Makar using it, maybe he takes it over and they change the number to his number. I’m pretty sure before it was the P88 it was someone else’s
In my opinion, the differences between p88, p29 and p28, never used a p90tm, is small. Between those 3, I think stick feel, flex and lie are more important than curve. In my personal experience, the P28 is the easiest to lift the puck and toe drag, the P88 is easier for stick handling, passing and especially backhand passing but snapshots are more difficult to get right. The P29 is somewhere in between. I would recommend a P28 to beginners, an experienced player can make all three of them work, which is good, because not all curves might be available where you live.

Good video fellas. Just started messing with my curves. Gonna try a heel curve instead of my toe curves.
Glad we could help Brandon 👌🏾

As a defensemen, I love the p90tm it’s a blend of the p28 and p92.
Yess!! Same here 🤘
P30 was the best curve. Best of both worlds worked for everything.
Awesome video. In future it would be nice to hear Tommy break down more than how the shots feel. Maybe stick handling, saucer pass and backhand shots would be good things to mention when reviewing curves. Love the content! Keep it up.
💯. So much more to a pattern than just shooting.
Second video coming focusing on stickhandling 😉
@@HockeyTutorialOfficial ahhh I see what you’re doing there 😉
I mean out of the 3 it’s gotta be p90tm…but my fave is the Nylander pro curve. Stick manufacturers need to offer more curves like they used to
Best curve of all time is the old school Iginla. Change my mind
Warrior Kovalev 5.5 lie, used many sticks/patterns over the years but really liked the Kovalev.
100% the "Iginla" P7. I loved that pattern.

Same boat. Broke my modano this last skate. Don't know what to buy. Everything is bendy
Go for the p88, all brands (p80 in ccm pro stock). Less big and not open
P29/p92 😍

so what about 'lie' ..?? lots of stick videos but that is never covered ... seems important eh ??
Come on fellas we all know p88 is the best
What about the p88?
This side of the pond P28, P29 and P90TM is all the curves we get.
@@HockeyTutorialOfficial That's a bummer. It's the P88 is my favorite one as well. It has a little bit more toe than the p29.
@@HockeyTutorialOfficial i live in germany and bought a agent 5 p88 curve if i remember correctly u live in the uk but i dont now about shipping costs...
P88 is nice. I want to like the p29 on my ribcor but everything goes over the net
Get outta here Dman, forwards only. Lolol

I have warriors W28 curve on my alpha lx. I like it even for wristshots from further away
Pm9....
Could tommy elaborate on what type of player you are (like grinding in the corners) has to do with stick curve?

9M9 is the best curve hands down closely followed by P88

P88 is the correct answer
p88 better than all of them
Which one is best for defense

p88
Translate please my text. Скажите пожалуйста, какой загиб для защитника лучше всего? Чтобы лучше бросать с дальных дистанций
90. 28 для защитника слишком маленький, как и 29. В 90 больше лезвия.
P92 the best curve fr
"tapes one twig like its his own" aka tapes the toe. then the other two he just tapes normal. Then they proceed to say he favorites one curve and then we will be surprised to see which one he picks. bruh... you gave it away with the tape jobs hahah. I love yall hahha!
You guys should do reviews on hockey gear I’m always seeing Tommy wearing different gear
Can you ask tommy why he pulls his socks up his shin pads so high I mean no disrespect but it makes his legs look 3 inches long no kizzy
What is his main stick
P90TM is amazing guys got it on my AS4 Pro🔥
I think it’s the best curve. So does Tommy but he won’t admit it 😂

?
Both your custom CCMs are insane, but I was fixed on that blue on Tommy's most this vid LoL
P38 my friends.
P88 the best
They are getting harder to find. Not sure why. It’s such a popular curve among dmen and forwards.
@@rocketchannel3719 just picked up a P88 hyperlite, I’m pretty sure the Trigger series has P88 too. I’ll be sad if it ever goes away that’s for sure.

Mach review
Which blade pattern is best for saucer passes and quick shots?
I would say p92/29
I like the p92
Love the bloopers!
Any winner for backhand shots ?
For sure. P28 was better at getting under the puck than the others
just do a P92 Max height CCM
P90🐐
Agreed !
P28 got me all day. Tried the p90tm and didn't really dig it. All three are good blades though if I was forced to use any of the three I'd be able to.
First
In my opinion, the differences between p88, p29 and p28, never used a p90tm, is small. Between those 3, I think stick feel, flex and lie are more important than curve.

I try to find a stick with a 6 lie, a square tor and a relatively closed face for the biggest discount that I can find.
Р 29 lie 5.5
No p88??? Jkjk never seen a good player use that curve 😂😂😂
Yeah...that Cale Makar is so mid 😂
@@jwk190 wasn’t exactly referring to nhl players
No P88 on this side of the Atlanta Ocean. Just p29, p28 and p90tm
