1. A hockey stick blade comprising:
- a front blade face, a rear blade face, a heel and a neck,the front blade face comprising at least one front layer of reinforcing fiber material including a first plurality of reinforcing fibers, the at least one front layer having a first reinforcing fiber density defined by a ratio between an area of each front layer covered by the first plurality of fibers and a complementary area of each front layer free of the first plurality of fibers,the rear blade face comprising at least one rear layer of reinforcing fiber material including a second plurality of reinforcing fibers, the at least one rear layer having a second reinforcing fiber density defined by a ratio between an area of each rear layer covered by the second plurality of fibers and a complementary area of each rear layer free of the second plurality of fibers, andthe first reinforcing fiber density differs from the second reinforcing fiber density.
