The modern hockey stick got its beginnings in 1927-1928 when the National Hockey League required all sticks be 63 inches or shorter.

They discovered that a straighter stick improved handling and control of the puck, so the sticks remained as straight as possible.http://www.stickshack.com/Hockey-Stick-History.htm Originally made of wood, hockey sticks are now available in aluminum, graphite, and fiberglass.
