NO, TWIGZ AND TWIG HOCKEY COMPANY ARE NOT THE SAME. DON'T BE FOOLED BY A SIMILAR NAME.
It's pretty clear that people are starting to take notice of us over here at Twig Hockey Company. How do we know? Just take a look at the new player line of twigs that Hockey Monkey (Monkey Sports) just released this season: Their New Twigz. Looks pretty familiar doesn't it? Hey, to be clear, we love Hockey Monkey. They offer great deals on a lot of great hockey gear. Maybe this was completely unintentional and just coincidental. While that gets cleared up and since the names are so similar, lets go ahead and take a look at what they are actually offering. To be clear, we're not looking at any other model in their line-up except the top. After all, we're here to bring you the best for less. There is no need to compare to their lower performing model builds that also weigh far more.

To conclude, their new stick line appears to be perfectly serviceable in many scenarios and we love the idea of moving away from big brands that overcharge for performance. We just can't understand why you'd ever opt to pay more for a stick that may not be quite as good. And to our many fans that are probably concerned about our well being, don't worry! The trademark infringement lawsuit is already in process.
Gear up. Play on!
