Lie Detector

Pro Stock Hockey has a new Lie Detector!

Like all lie detectors, this one finds the truth – the truth about the angle between the shaft and the blade. With our new lie templates; Pro Stock Hockey is able to give you even more information about our products to help you find exactly what you are looking for.

The lie is the angle of the shaft when the majority of the bottom portion of the blade is flat on the ice. Generally, you want less of an angle as a defenseman. A lower lie (4) allows a defenseman to reach out further for the puck while still keeping most of the blade on the ice. For positions that require more intense stick handling, a steeper lie is usually more useful. Check out the image below to see the difference between some of the lie angles.

Pro Stock Hockey is dedicated to bringing you the best products to suit your playing style, and we have updated each stick on our site to include the accurate lie information.  Our pro stock sticks are denoted with lie angles between 3 and 7.5.
