I actually love this idea and it never dawned on me. I doubt there is any NHL rule against wood sticks.
Well-made wood sticks still have flex and the "snap" that gets quick releases and hard wristers. They aren't the bulky ass heavy things the Rocket used to use.
They are quite light, although admittedly not as light as composites these days. In the dying minutes of the game though, as a player or coach, I'd rather have a wood stick to protect the lead.
