EDMONTON, Alberta — Anthony Beauvillier bought into the premise easily.

“Oh man, it’s something we talk about every day in this room,” Beauvillier told The Post. “Just talk about sticks, talk about different curves we can use, different flex or whatnot. It’s just, sometimes it’s nice just to mess around with different stuff.”

A hockey player’s stick is central to everything they do on the ice. It’s also a personal piece of equipment. Everything from the curve of the blade to the flex of the shaft to the weight to the length can be toyed with, and every player has a personal preference.

Most are married to it.
