Fleury @ 3/4"?!?
Gonchar @ 1"?!?
edit: meant to say McKee and not Rupp who use that new flat bottom V-cut. looking even closer i guess neither does.

as you can see, the smaller the fraction - the deeper the cut. fleury's shallow hollow for the style that he plays is truly mind boggling. his technique on his butterfly/lateral slides has to be almost perfect or he'll just slip out.

I use a 1/2" hollow. Tried a 3/4" once and thought I was never going to be able to stop myself other than by running into the wall. I literally left the ice went to the skate guy and said "fix this, please". And he did.
Here endeth the lesson.

Same with Rupp. The guy scores 4 goals this year and thinks he can get the Crosby treatment
