Won't be playing hockey anymore after this season. So I'm selling my inventory. Here's a brand new blade. Never used only inserted into the shaft. The pattern is Mike Modano right handed. This is all I use and they are amazing will help add a little zip to your shot. They retail for 119.99 + tax coming to 137.00, that's what I paid at Sportcheck, I'm looking for a cool $100.00. So if your in the market for this blade you can save $37.00. Pm me if interested. Will also throw in a JOFA hockey stick bag for free which retails at 19.99+tax.

If you'r not familier with the term Si-Core here's a read up:

The Si-Core in the name refers to a refinement Easton has created in the internal makeup of this blade. Easton's patented ESP (Easton Sensory Performance) technology combines its Z-Carbon lightweight Aaramid/Graphite blade construction with all new Silicone ESP Zones within the blade. These zones give the SiCore its amazing feel. Now the blade with the hardest, fastest release in the world also has the best puck feel available.

Z-Carbon Specifics
Three main performance features (outside of the Si-Core) make the Si-Core Z-Carbon the world's most advanced blade. The blade is constructed of 32 MSI Pro Spec Carbon. This type of material reduces the weight of the blade to 155 grams. The Pro Spec Carbon also allows Easton to mold the blade much thinner than other composite blades. The Ultra Thin blade profile enhances your feel for the puck and quickens the release of your shot. Because of the strength of the material, Easton is able to build a Focus Flex section into the tenon of the stick. The tenon thins like an hourglass in the area between the hosel and the blade to allow the blade a bit more flex resulting in an even lower kickpoint and a more powerful and accurate shot.

Summary
The Si-Core Z-Carbon is the most technically advanced blade in the world. The Z-Carbon blade has been proven at all levels of pro play and is now available to the general public. If you are looking for a great blade that will give you a bit more performance out of your existing shaft, or simply want the best blade available for your new shaft, go for the Si-Core Z-Carbon.

About the Curve

The Modano is a nice mid heel curve that has a fairly low lie (5). If you find that you wear most of your blades out on the heel, this lower lie will put more of your blade on the ice. This is a perfect curve for snap shots and slapshots from close range. It has good stickhandling manners and is not an extreme curve. If you like a heel, but don't need the huge curve of most heel's, this is a great choice.
