Iconic hockey sticks turn Trew Crew's week into a gear reunion
The channel's only new upload tests Bauer classics and brings out viewers' memories of their favorite sticks.
Why this story? The channel's weekly summary: what went up this week, what is drawing views now, and where the channel stands among similar channels.
I Tested Iconic Hockey Sticks
The old sticks have stories. Trew Crew's “I Tested Iconic Hockey Sticks” reached roughly 71,000 views, giving viewers a new equipment test and a reason to remember the gear they never quite replaced.
The description frames the episode around iconic Bauer sticks, but the conversation stretches well beyond that brand. Viewers name Easton Synergy models, Reebok Ribcores and favorite blade curves. One still uses a Reebok in beer league; another remembers a Bauer Vapor lasting about a decade. There are requests for an S19 test, too, and for the return of senior-team day-in-the-life videos.
Older uploads remain the channel's biggest daily draws. “Worst situation ever 😭,” posted in late August, supplies far more daily views than the new stick test and has passed 1.5 million views. “He wasn’t even trying to 😭” is also active.
Trew Crew added subscribers modestly over the week, though daily viewing is now less than half its usual pace. Nearby hockey channels SteveDangle and Hockey Tutorial also have slower-than-usual viewing days, but Trew Crew accumulated more weekly views than either. Its new upload gives that activity a distinctly equipment-minded conversation.

What viewers say
Original Easton Synergy or the Bauer Vapor APX2 hands down. Modern tech is light, but nothing felt as satisfying as those classics.

Easton Synergy Yzerman, sherwood featherlite Coffey, Reebok 7k Datsyuk. Early 2000s there were so many different curves available, its sad to see how they are now where there's only a few
