And I Thought Composite Sticks Were Pricey


The world's oldest ice hockey stick, a hickory shaft carved in the 1850s, sold for $2.2 million Canadian in Montreal and will be displayed at the Hockey Hall of Fame. An anonymous Canadian man made the winning bid in an internet auction purchase, according to 45-year-old seller Gord Sharpe, an Ontario man who has owned the family heirloom since he was nine.
