The way hockey players tape their sticks has become an art.
Many players pride themselves on the way they tape their blade, and some have a style that everyone knows by just looking at the tape job. Some players use as much tape as possible, and some use the least amount they can, but they all use a style that works for them.

David Pastrnak of the Boston Bruins is one of those NHL players. Pasta has a very unique tape job that you may have never even noticed, but by now, I think most fans would know whose stick it was if they saw it.
In the videos below, Pastrnak walks us through his process of taping his stick and how the style came to be:
