But not Kane, only if rotated in the 4th dimension.
True, dumb oversight on my part. Even lefty P10s are hard to come by though. Who comes to mind apart from Kane and Colin Wilson?
Bauer's P89 would be my call.

I think I'll bring up the Darby as a suggestion for a new pattern. There are a lot of diehard Darby/Vanek/P89 fans on S2K. If we can get enough of them to express interest in tapered blades or OPS, we should be able to get LH and RH moulds made.

Sorry, that was picky 
, it is still hard to find regardless of the hand one's searching for.
You guys might be halfway there on the Darby...
Someone on MSH said this was actually Darby. If that's the case, you'd just need to do the RH mold!

I would love to try out a P10. I saw a thread where someone from Base said they'd be producing them, but didn't see them available on their blade chart.
I'm hoping I'm wrong, but I only know of two players who use that curve and only one of them is a righty. I can't remember ever seeing a Giroux stick available in the wild and don't know that I'd be able to afford it if it came up.
Any other righthanders out there that use a P10?
Just call base. Their P10 is available at retail. I have one sitting in my basement used maybe once or twice.

True, it does look like a Darby. I've never seen it in person (like several other of our weird LH-only mystery curves lol), but I'll try to get my hands on a demo blade this summer to snap some pics.

I'd like to see tall/max height paddle option.
Datsyuk Pro Stock?

Datsyuk Pro Stock?
Even just all the retail offerings but with a maxed out option. I'm a righty as well so no Datsyuk for me

I think a company (cough cough BASE) should offer a p92 + toe kink at retail. Jamie Benn/Darth pro curve. (Forsberg, Getzlaf, both Benns, Broroweicki, Brassard etc)
This is quickly becoming one of the most popular options in the NHL and has been in overseas pro leagues for years. In fact, toe kinks are becoming so widely used, it would be nice to have the option on a few different retail patterns (some examples: Spooner - pm 9 + kink, Silvferberg - H15 + kink, Dzingle - H40 + kink)

Sounds like CCM Euro P30? (I would not mind if this were readily available in retail North America)

Can companies make a P92 with a different profile? The damn thing is too fat and the toe is weird. I would love to see a P92 with a P91 profile.
Custom everything.

Hey everyone, BASE is looking for new pattern suggestions to make them available as stock on our custom sticks and blades. Check out the thread: http://www.sports2k....for-new-curves/
