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.
That'd be a shocker for most of todays young players. How long since Cory Sarich played 8-10 years??? Hes the last NHLer I know for sure still played with a wood stick. Could have been others.
