I never understood why Milwaukee does not have a hockey team.
Nice arena the NBA Bucks use, opened just six years ago.
Lots of heritage going back to Scandinavia where hockey is big, Finland, Sweden.
Its cold as heck there, to me cold in places like Buffalo and Boston and Chicago and Minneapolis make them natural hockey town.
College hockey is huge there and in the Michigan Northern Peninsula.
Second town that should get hockey - Indianapolis.

Houston is where the franchise would make more money. Atlanta is not a good hockey market long term.
They’re equal markets in my eyes. Demographics in Houston aren’t what you think. Hockey is a sport for a specific demographic and Houston doesn’t have a ton of it.

The short answer is yes. They do each have differences is blade curving and length etc.
Casual fans or people unfamiliar with hockey would likely not notice but players would say they’re totally different. And they kind of are.

There's no difference between a forwards or a defenseman sticks per the rules.
You are referring to personal preferences. Ex, Forwards tend to want shorter sticks compared to defenseman.
When you buy a stick they are not separated by position. There is just a rack of sticks. You buy the one you like.

Sticks are also different w flex and lie. D tend to use longer stiff flex sticks than forwards. Forwards shoot more and want the whip that a lower flex stick gives. Lie is angle between shaft and blade, D tend to use shallower lie where fwds who shoot more want a steeper lie that's easier to shoot close to your feet.

There are subtle differences that the average person wouldn’t notice.
They’re not all made the same like generic rack sticks. They may look like that but they’re not.
