Bauer Nexus League Senior Hockey Stick - 2021

Intro & New Features
The Bauer Nexus League Senior Hockey Stick is an elite-level mid-kick stick that is built to unleash some wicked slap shots and wrist shots. With those considerations in mind, the stick features various returning and upgraded material, including Power Sense 2 Technology, a re-engineered 15k one-piece carbon fibre shaft, and an amplified mid-kick sweet spot—all within a stick that is built to last.

Shaft Construction
The shaft has now been reinforced with a premium 15k carbon fibre build to keep the shaft both lightweight and durable. The carbon also effectively enhances the Nexus’ acclaimed mid-kick point, making shooting easier and smoother than ever. Bauer’s single molding process has also removed excess materials, which means the stick is now much lighter.

Blade Construction
First appearing in the Supreme MX3, the Nexus League hockey stick uses Power Sense 2 Blade Technology to lower blade weight and optimize the stick’s balance point. SENSE materials—Bauer’s addition of a high-density epoxy—is placed around TeXtreme fibre on the outer layer of the blade to reinforce its strength and ability to keep in contact with the puck. Power Sense 2 optimization makes this blade perfect for players who find themselves in the thick of battle often.

Stick Flex Profile
Like all in the Nexus line, the Nexus League hockey stick is built with a mid-kick flex profile and uses Sweet Spot Technology. The improved carbon shaft has made it even easier to make use of the stick’s mid-kick build. Similar to other mid-kick sticks, this hockey stick is best suited for defensemen and two-way forwards that focus most of their game on making big slap shots, wrist shots, or passes from particularly far away.

Graphics
The stick has a very traditional Bauer Nexus look, with a black and royal blue colouration. The top of the shaft is reserved for the blue, while black and carbon material take the bottom. Nexus’ logo is printed subtly in both areas and in similar colours, and Bauer’s classic lettering is placed near the blade in white.

Blade Patterns, Flex, & Stick Length
The Nexus League Hockey Stick comes in the following blade patterns: P28, P88, P92, and P92M.

P92 is the best all-around blade pattern, with a mid-curve style. It is great at handling the puck in small spaces, including face-offs. P92M is very similar to the P92, but it is just a bit taller.

P88 is a relatively traditional curve. A popular choice in the past, it excels greatly in stickhandling, quick wrist shots, and snappy backhands.

P28 is a much more curved stick pattern, used often by elite players. This blade curve specializes in quick and accurate shots.
