In his “Straight Edge” column for The Hockey News, Ryan Kennedy reports on the new products and technologies at the recent Let’s Play Hockey Show in Las Vegas. Ryan features three products that offer better protection for players with a heavy focus on the M11.

Kennedy writes that “the sport itself will stand to benefit from some of the products being pitched” and that “naturally, concussions were covered off in a variety of ways and companies are really bringing the science.”
