Warrior's foam core sticks are extremely popular at the NHL level. Warrior continues to pass down their successes to the retail level with the SR2 intermediate goalie stick.
The Warrior SR2 intermediate goalie stick is a much lighter stick than the Swagger Wood that it is replacing. It features a reinforced wood shaft mated to a foam core paddle, rather than the full wood core that its older brother had.
The Warrior SR2 senior goal stick also features a precision balanced construction to allow for a lighter feeling stick in the hand, and this in tandem with the classic pro design ensures that goalies will like the familiar foam core feel that the stick provides.
Warrior's SR2 intermediate goalie stick is the perfect tool for a goalie that wants the feel of a foam core stick, and isnt looking to spend a lot of money to get it.

Unlike other pieces of gear, Goalie Sticks are sized mostly to the goaltender’s preference and playing style rather than their height. The most important measurement, when purchasing a new goal stick, is the paddle height (the wide portion of the stick), which is usually taken from the heel of the stick to the shaft/paddle interface. The reason for the paddle height’s significance is because it sets up the goaltender’s depth in the ready stance and (if properly sized) positions the blocker in an optimal position.
Sizing Your Goalie Stick
To start analyzing the size of your goalie stick, put on your goalie skates to get an accurate height of where you will be in your stance. If you’re looking to be even more accurate, strap on your goalie pads and blocker as well. Once that is done, get comfortable in your natural stance (the one you’d be in during a majority of gameplay) and look for the following:
1. The entire blade of the stick is flush with the ground while being 1’ - 2’ in front of your feet
2. After getting your stick into the flush position, check that the inside edge of the blocker hand sits on the outside edge of the goal pad (this is while holding just above the paddle).
Goalie Stick Sizing Considerations
Goalie Stick sizing can be very subjective compared to other pieces of equipment. The reason for this is the ambiguity of each goaltenders ‘natural stance’, especially with younger goaltenders. It is rather common for children to use taller sticks in comparison to their height, as their stance depth isn’t usually as aggressive as a seasoned goalie.
The shaft length of a goalie stick is usually best left at its stock length, as it serves to counteract the weight of the blade and ideally place the center of gravity at the top of the paddle. The one exception to this rule is for advanced puck handlers, cutting the shaft will allow more power transfer when shooting as a result of being able to keep the blade flush to the ice while near the goaltender’s feet.
