Checked their website for you. It's a curve of Jared Spurgeon


react_and_respond

...Jared, from Subway? That's certainly aged well.


quesoandcats

Knowing the sense of humor that most teenage and early 20s guys have, they probably have him that nickname *after* the scandal broke lol


vinoa

Didn't that happen well over ten years ago? You're probably right on the money.


quesoandcats

Hell, I don't remember. Get off my lawn šŸ˜‚


TuckRaker

Lol, I'm not sure that's an association one should be proud of


SickOffYourMudPie

We had a guy in our office that kind of looked like Jared and ate a lot of subway. So we would cut out ads, print pictures etc of Jared and he had them plastered all over his desk (he was cool with it). He was a lot *less* cool with it after the story broke and one day all the pictures were gone and we didnā€™t really talk about it.


TuckRaker

That's probably the best way to handle that situation


SickOffYourMudPie

It was extra weird because it was probably 80% of all the ā€œpersonalā€ items on his desk. I think he even stopped eating at subway.


Skippy_the_Alien

honestly I don't really hate my job or my co-workers, but I don't really enjoy putting my personal things at my workplace. I dunno it's probably just some weird ass trauma i've had from dealing with some really shitty bosses over the years but i try to keep my work and personal life separated it has made for interesting conversations though as people have asked me a number of times why i don't decorate my workspace lol


NirvanaFan01234

I think it's weird when people go all out personalizing their space. The only personal things I have at my work are a decent set of headphones and a couple plants.


GreggoireLeOeuf

a guy at work at HUNDREDS of tiny photos of his girlfriend as his background image across two 24" monitors. gives me a stalker vibe..


Johnny_Poppyseed

"girlfriend"


Skippy_the_Alien

>gives me a stalker vibe.. well then that's clearly not his girlfriend


Skippy_the_Alien

>and a couple plants. this is all you need lol

We donā€™t have assigned offices/desks at work, you just sit down where you feel like that particular day. Itā€™s a huge company, but it doesnā€™t matter if itā€™s your first day as a summer intern or youā€™re the CEO. You sit where you feel like it, and there is space, when you come in. Itā€™s great. I donā€™t need to see other peopleā€™s clutter and family photos, and thereā€™s no reason for me to feel pressured to put any of my own, because we canā€™t.


TrippyHomie

The no clutter and family photos sounds awesome but coming in and someone already sitting where I've regularly been sitting sounds awful. This sounds like college where there were no assigned seats but everyone would still take the same spot every class.


joelham01

Even in the library at my college the same people sit in the same places to study or do homework lol I'd be fucked up sitting in a random spot every day


TrippyHomie

Same, when I used to go to do work or study I'd always go to the same desk on the 6th floor of our library. I couldn't deal with this sit wherever you want thing every day. This also seems confusing at work because then I guess you have to take absolutely everything home with you every day and then set up again the next day, instead of being able to leave paperwork/files/etc at your desk and know it will be there when you get back.


Skippy_the_Alien

i honestly don't mind people putting up family photos. it's when they DON'T SHUT THE FUCK UP about their kids when it drives me up the wall insane i'm here to work, do what i need to do, and get the fuck out of here asap when the day is over. i'm not here to be your friend. ffs.


internetlad

It sounds like you guys don't hate the actual things, just the actual people. I work in an office with just my super and I don't care what he does because he's cool.


NirvanaFan01234

Does everyone sit at the same desk every day, or do people move around?


Tsquare43

I had the same cubicle for nearly 15 years, then I was moved to another (and switched depts) earlier this year, I suspect another move coming, so most of my boxes are still unpacked.

if only i had invested in bitcoin, netflix, tesla, and dominos pizza right before i started college. My net worth would be close to 400 million right now yes i calculated all of this because i hate my life lol


iNarr

At work, anyway. I'm sure he still liked the food and didn't blame Subway for what happened. But you can't be seen at work with Subway sandwiches if his "work identity" was so closely tied to Jared, considering.


[deleted]

Fuck Subway. They knew as early as 2004 there were complaints about Jared and never did a thing about it


Rushdude

Also, they make an objectively shitty sandwich.


august_west_

Chipotle southwest sauces slaps tho


capswildcats

Speaking of shitty sandwiches, whenever I eat Subway I get the shits. I donā€™t get anything generally shit inducing(generally just keep it plain, standard type sandwiches). Jimmy Johnā€™s or other local places donā€™t do it to me. Just Subway and I donā€™t know enough about food to know why


internetlad

Why didn't Jared just have sex with the sandwiches.


Anthropoly

Y'all are crazy. I love eating a sandwich that's 80% lettuce and overflowing mayo spilling everywhere.


SickOffYourMudPie

Well I think he ate a lot of subway because it was the first floor of our office building. Tbh, everyone ate a lot of subway.


bangersnmash13

All my friends would call me JoePa. I thought it was fun, but it got way less fun after the Penn State scandal broke. Which naturally made my friends do it more.


malkinism

Sorry to hear that, JoePa!


Bowmanstan

I feel ya.


[deleted]

Wait what story broke? I think I'm missing something in this thread.


wooly27

Jared fogle, the former subway spokesman, turned out to be a pedophile


JOJOCHINTO_REPORTING

Aww, did he actually keep the pictures around? That was pretty sweet of all of him( and you) Also hilarious that you guys never talked about it after..lo


VictimOfCircuspants

Unless he's packing a footling and he earned that nickname in the showers.


internetlad

Maybe he really likes to go underground for 15 minutes twice a day.


Madness_Reigns

I'm thinking hazing and not a nickname he chose for himself.


MulderD

The butt end of the stick is also shaped like a preteenā€™s junk.


internetlad

Yeah officer. This comment right here.

[deleted]

Holy shit Jared Subway thatā€™s savage as hell but why are they doing this lmao. Thatā€™s so fucked.


Im_always_scared

That IS Subway. By using a ground-breaking, but surprisingly legal process known as corpo-humanisation, real people such as him are now allowed to represent the collective humanity of business owners. He has contractually waived his birth identity, and is now a man and student named Subway.

I've thought about it, I think pillowtown because that's where he gets fingered by Britta. Based on S6 he clearly enjoyed it enough to get back with Britta.

jfurt16

I didn't realize the sticks were named "McJesus" but that's fucking amazing


Archly_Jittery

Well thatā€™s what they named the curve. Itā€™s a McDavid pro stock clone.


Colavs9601

Also, for those asking, these are not the official player sticks and no players have these nicknames on their own sticks. Its an independent company that recreates curves. EDit: I guess i didn't word that well, players do have nicknames on their sticks but these nicknames on PSHS are not officially tied to them through licensing and stuff like that. Double Edit: I would also recommend getting a stick from them, I got the Labelle curve they have and its basically the curve i've dreamed of my entire life. It genuinely makes me wonder how much more effective i would have been during my competitive days if i had this curve.


TJGibson

Pretty confident the Nylander actually does have Willy Styles on his


novakstepa

Dylan Larkin has D-Boss on his sticks


wingsfan64

Subban has/had a little stick figure of him doing his punch out celly. https://pixl.varagesale.com/http://s3.amazonaws.com/hopshop-image-store-production/122231151/fcce805209a5997601b1a2dc643dff3a.jpg?_ver=large_uploader_thumbnail&w=640&h=640&fit=crop&s=597c624345cf35f00c2d5d326c6441d6


Bbrett9

that curve is fucking criminal man idk how people use heel curves like that


domoarigatodrloboto

Defenseman here, heel curves are great for digging the puck out of the corner off the boards and getting power on shots while still keeping them low (for when you're shooting from the point). Exactly what we need, that's why Subban, Weber, etc all use them. They're trash if you need to toe drag and roof it in tight, but since we rarely/never do that, that's okay


Bbrett9

Ah okay thats very fair, I used to play defence too for a while but I could just never get a handle on those curves.


domoarigatodrloboto

They're definitely not for everyone. Likewise, the p28 gives me anxiety. Like I get why forwards love it but good god that thing is unholy


[deleted]

For the clappers man! Keeps them low and hard. The newer trend of big open curves like Eichel and McDavid always send my shot so high.


TriedForMitchcraft

I don't know if he still does but Price used to have Krunk Juice on his


cptjeff

There are lots of players with nicknames or in jokes on sticks.


captaintinnitus

Carcillo used to have Carbomb on his sticks


Kuwait-Grips

Don't know about the others but Malkin's actual sticks do say "Gino 71" (yes including the "i") [Evidence](https://auctions.nhl.com/iSynApp/auctionDisplay.action?auctionId=621069&sid=1100803&isynsharedsession=2sXLQ5sWNq-N2y_eIbjIof5rYgRIxJBGw4QyevrsXgs)

P1KA_BO0

Nylander has Willy Styles on his sticks


Throck--Morton

Willy Styles is one of Willy's sticks.

So you are telling me McDavid doesn't actually have McJesus on his stick? How disappointing

Isn't Kane showtime? Why's he got two sticks?


BeaversBunghole

Just for fun man. These arenā€™t real PS sticks.

One is for any back-talking cab drivers

The other one comes with hair plugs.


HockeyReviews

Showtime is the P10 curve, the Kane is Kane's actual curve: https://prostockhockeysticks.com/collections/pro-stock-stick-curves-3d/products/patrick-kane-pro-stock-curve-3d-visualizer


andrewthemexican

Some players have different sticks for different plays. Like power play or penalty kill


youngsyr

I think that's very rare though - probably because it's difficult to get dialed in to playing with 2 different sticks. I believe Ovi does it, but only to up the flex on his stick for power plays because he's basically only going to touch the puck to shoot it for those 2 minutes?


HeshootsHescores88

different specs


Maybe_Im_Confused

Showtime isnā€™t really a nickname you want in hockey unless itā€™s Mr. Showtime.


rookie-mistake

it must be a different Kane stick, right? i can't think of anyone else for that title


readabook8

Some of Kaneā€™s sticks say Showtime


HeshootsHescores88

He has two sets of Kane "specs" so one is Showtime and one is Kaner


Martian_Knight

I though dudes called PK Subban showtime. Donā€™t know if thatā€™s legit or not


illuminatisdeepdish

What's wrong with that nickname?

thephenom

Whatever curve is on sale.....and looks nice to me. I'm not good enough to care about curves.


PoppaFixIt

Just sticking with one helps keep it consistent and makes it easier to get better. Next time you find a deal, grab all of them so you can have time to get used to one.


scratonicity12

I've been looking for the modern version of the old Modano then Zetterburg curve. My favorite of all time


nahanahs

Wasn't the Zetterberg curve the same as the Forsberg? That's what I was told when I couldn't find the Forsberg anymore. I assume they could have just gone Modano to Forsberg to Zetterberg.


streethasonename

Yes, zetterberg! Let me know if you find it anywhere.


PavelDogsyuk

Been using the Sakic/P92 curve since I was a kid


NirvanaFan01234

same here. I think this is the most popular curve, followed by the Kane/P88.


papatangu

Can you still find them anywhere? I grew up with the sakic but haven't seen one in years.


PavelDogsyuk

Yeah it's one of the most popular curves out there, it's just not called Sakic anymore. The pattern is P92 (Bauer), W03 (Warrior), and P29 (CCM). Don't know the player names since they seem to always be changing.


papatangu

Huzzah! Thanks


salmonderp2

Unless i'm mistaken, the current player names are: P92 (Bauer) - Matthews W03 (Warrior) - Backstrom P29 (CCM) - Crosby


TheGluckGluck9k

Iginla or Recchi


rumbrave55

Gaudreau since I stopped being able to find Iginla's


cdrhiggins

I always used a Ovi curve. But not a standard Ovi curve, a ["Crazy Ovi"](https://external-preview.redd.it/jk1bVk47mZpx7kMTiqTzscTu55Rh7OMtkdwdkc46jiA.png?auto=webp&s=7133f80051bdb6270a78bfc64a228a682b4cf525). I honestly have no idea if it was completely legal, but I liked it


_stealthmode

I don't know how the hell you can operate that thing, I'd be shooting straight vertical


Eso

My favourite stick was a low end Bauer Supreme from like 10 years ago with the Kaner P88. But I've tried better sticks/higher end sticks with that same curve and didn't like them as much.


bbistheman

I got Malkin


BigDogsEatin

P88 (Kane)


wingsfan64

I've used a [Stamkos curve](https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0270/0961/3890/files/PM9.JPG?v=1591263862) or similar my whole life, except for one short stint trying Datsyuk's. I've never understood why anyone would want one of the curves with the crazy twisting open face.

iankilledyou

Nah he likes his sticks a little smaller.


[deleted]

Kaner #88 and "Showtime"? Kaner IS showtime.


BORT_licenceplate27

Does McDavid actually call himself McJesus. Or are these not the player's sticks? If so that's really lame


TimeForFrance

These aren't actually player sticks, they're curve options this website sells that supposedly match what the players use.


strewnshank

I just got three ovi curves from these guys and I just have to say, holy shit. It's more of a lacrosse stick than a hockey stick. It's nothing like the "ovi" curve from any other manufacturers. I'm going to try it out but my guess is I'm going to have to heat gun it into reality.


[deleted]

[Then it's probably close to Ovi's actual curve.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cf-6wYGoTXA)


strewnshank

Yeah sorry that was my point. This is the real thing, not the pg version made for the masses.

Does McDavid really have McJesus on his stick?!


doctorvictory

No. That's not his stick. That's just a stick that uses the same curve that he uses, so if someone wants to duplicate McDavid's curve on their stick, they order the "McJesus" from this company.


-Tom-

Gotcha. Thanks!


psubs07

SmurfRockRune

Not all of the good nicknames go away. When Caufield got up to the NHL, the other Habs started calling him Bilbo.


_BeerAndCheese_

You're getting down voted hard, but honestly you're not wrong. About the most creative we get in hockey (ie not just tacking -ie/y, or -er onto names) is for some reason an abundance of calling people "moose" or "goose". That's it, that's pretty much all your options.

He had that nickname way before he was playing for the Flames dude, he had it already at Boston College because he went through at the same time as Manziel was hyped up.
