$200 sticks

3-4 mph would be a pretty drastic increase wouldn't it? I have a bottom of the line Easton Synergy. I like it, but compared to the stick I had before it seems like man's first incarnation of the wheel. I had a Synergy Elite and that stick was amazing. The puck flew off the blade. Unfortunately after about 10-12 months the blade cracked long ways. I still have the shaft, but the damage makes it impossible to take a strong shot. I can still shoot the puck pretty hard with my 90$ Synergy though, but I noticed the Elite made it easier to get off shots.

Cut off the old blade and throw in a new tapered blade. Synergies are easy to convert to tapered shafts.
