Hanging goalie hockey sticks
Goalie sticks have a different shape than regular hockey sticks.
Hanging a goalie stick with our Holders is the same as a regular stick. The handle of a goalie stick is the same size and shape as a regular (forward or defensemen) hockey stick. The brackets are mounted the same as you would for a regular stick, and are strong enough to handle the lopsided weight. We have a number of customers using our hangers with their goalie sticks.
There is, however, a unique situation with some game-used goalie sticks that poses a different challenge to hang.
Most game-used goalie sticks have a large knob made of tape on the top of their handles; some are thicker than others. This is added by goalies to balance the stick and help it not slide out of their hand.
When hanging a goalie stick with this taped knob, it can push the stick away from the wall, and not allow the hanger to get a solid hold on the stick. In these situations, Breakaway Displays offers Goalie Spacers*.
Not every goalie stick needs the Goalie Spacers*, just sticks with taped knobs over ¼ inch thick.
Is this the case with your goalie stick?
Breakaway Displays has you covered. When ordering Holders, be sure to buy the Game-Used Goalie Stick Holder.*
