Lemieux stick help

[bigben913]

I am looking for help on this Lemieux stick. The tape job does not match what I have seen him use, but is the stick Lemieux game used? Did they make replicas of this stick? Any help would be appreciated

I remember Claude Lemieux using Titan sticks but I can't recall Mario using them. The 2020 was also from around 1983 or 1984. As the years went on, the numbers increased in terms of stiffness going to the 3030 and 4040 I think.

I do remember Mario mainly being a Koho user and he used Nike when he came back around 2001

Lemieux did use a total but his tape job was different

Picture of Lemieux with this type of stick. So if he used this type of stick, but it's not his tape job. Does that mean it's a game used stick and someone switched the tape? We're there replicas of pro sticks like these? With stamped name plates?

Lemieux used 2020 sticks when he played for Laval so that would match Art's time range of 83/84 too.

I guess one thing that would interest me too with that stick that might help determine whether it could have been used by him is whether or not it would suit a player that was Mario's height?

It's also a right handed shot right?

Yes right handed. Working on height. I think it would help if I just knew if they made retail sticks with name stamps like this in the 80s. If they didn't, I think i could be certain it was his

Stick stands around 5'3-5'5. Lengths vary so much, I have a Broten stick that is really short, and defenseman sticks that are really tall

If it was gamer from the 80's, it'll have some or all of these:

1) Titan printed on the underside of the shaft, opposite of the Titan printed on the top of the shaft.

2) Date stamp, usually near the sticker at the bottom of the shaft or close to the heel.

3) Product code stamp, near the heel.

4) Very odd/big curve. Also could have abnormally long blade.

I have a TPM-1020 Fiberglass (Dave Reid) and it has #'s 1, 3 4 from the list.

From my experience, it isn't a pro stick or a gamer. Some stores did get name stamped sticks, that were never meant for pro players. The local shop I used to go to in Calgary used to get Flames players like Vernon, Neiuwendyk, MacInnis and the like.
