CURRENT EVIDENCE
Why we believe it
pro stock listing
SidelineSwap
Player-attributed listing explicitly describes Nexus 1N dressed as Tracer; supports current-graphic hidden-build conclusion.
physical code
SidelineSwap
Listing says sticks are coded Nexus 1N and specifies P88/95; useful physical-code corroboration.

HockeyStickMan · source/evidence date 2026-09-08
HockeyStickMan describes Makar as predominantly a Nexus 1N construction user throughout his NHL career, with a P88-style mid curve and typically 95–105 flex. Useful for a probable build, not enough alone for current Tracer-era verification.

HockeyStickMan · source/evidence date 2026-09-08
HockeyStickMan explicitly explains that its Makar example has Sync graphics but a Nexus 1N build. This is strong evidence of the persistent legacy construction pattern; a current Tracer stick code is still required for verification.
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.
