I had OG Rangers/Bruins D man Brad Park in my pro shop years ago…he was doing a guest coaching weekend at the rink. He was preaching to beginners about keeping your knees bent when skating and how you should start out with a shorter stick because it will force you be in the "ready" position when skating. Moral of his story…the longer your stick, the more you'll get out of the optimal skating position to gain a little reach. Makes sense.

Its mind blowing that these guys are still making adjustments to their gear at this level, after thousands of hrs on the ice

Biz and Whitney have garbage takes
Sam.. you’re a bad man!!! 😆🥶🥶🥶🥶
Zibanejad has a retardedly long stick and it prevents him from stick handling.
Sam with such a quick one there 😂
Jordan Staal plays with a long stick. Also, McKinnon and Savard seem to play with very short sticks.
