Casualty from Monday’s practice at MTS Iceplex in Winnipeg = Dobby’s stick.

To the eye, it doesn’t necessarily seem broken, since it’s not a clean break, but the wobbly blade made it hard for Anton Khudobin to handle the puck about halfway through practice. You don’t usually see a goalie’s stick snap like a shooter’s stick would, so in this case, the blade probably just “delaminated” as Equipment Manager Keith Robinson would say and became too soft… and this one definitely looks like it’s been through some wear and tear!
