@hockeysteve94 It must be the feel of the stick on the ice. When I tape the blade where he is using the sandpaper, I put tape along there first then I tape it the usual way around. It's just something you do because you like it. Maybe he uses sandpaper so the tape won't rip as much? I'm not sure how to answer that because I'm not Kris. Alls I know is that everyone has their way of personalizing their stick and how they tape it.
I met Kris about a week ago at a signing, when i asked for a picture he just said "yeah." I'm not sure if its because he is shy or not, but he didn't say much. I still got a picture with him though:)
I think he is an AMAZING defensemen, without a doubt the best in the league!
hah awe. i met him a few times, and he's super nice.
and dear god, some of you girls are kinda embarrasing to the girls who actually like players because they're talented, not because they're hot..but most of the pens are pretty attractive, just sayin(;
when he talks it doesn't even sound like he has an accent, but than there's certain words that he misses or doesn't pronounce right, that's the only thing that would give away that he's french
like you know enough about hockey to make a judgement on that.
you dumb 12 year old virgins make me laugh. some dude is cute and he magically becomes good at everything. the way you idealize is almost delusional. grow up.
@joyfulvulture You dont need to be belligerent about it. Who says I don't know hockey? I don't know the pens very well (can openly admitt that,) but I do know hockey, and I know a good player when I see it.
Maybe you should grow up and stop critizing people if they think a player is good or not =] okay? thanks :D
I believe it's to provide better adhesion for the tape. Much like you would sand two pieces of material before gluing them together. Provides a better surface for the tape to adhere to.
do you mean when he uses the sand paper to smooth out the blade? That makes sure that the blade is nice and smooth, so there aren't any bumps that were made during production. when he takes the grinder thing, that makes it so he has a better grip of the shaft.
i met him with my sister a few days ago at whole foods. he wouldnt sign anything when we first asked him then later he saw us and apologized and said "i'm just really shy" he was really sweet about it

some players use blade tape, so the bottom of the stick is still polished and slippery.
the sanding makes it more rugged, and stick the the ice fibers.
