CURRENT EVIDENCE
Why we believe it
pro stock listing
SidelineSwap / NitroSports
Readable BGP2B/ADV on recent PAPI 34 Bauer FLYLITE stock supports ADV as the leading current-family hypothesis. Matthews has many documented construction variants, so this supports PROBABLE rather than a fixed-build claim.

HockeyStickMan · source/evidence date 2026-03-09
HockeyStickMan reports the then-new FlyLite-era hidden build as unresolved, with Matthews appearing to remain around 82–87 flex and P86. This conflicts with recent P92 marketplace labels and is retained as an unresolved curve/spec question.

StickDNA rule: A graphics change is a trigger to investigate, not proof of a construction change. Source publication dates and actual on-ice usage dates are tracked separately; a recent article about an older physical stick does not make that stick current.
