It wasn't exactly a stick up, but Gatineau cops are chasing a pair of bandits currently on a breakaway with a slew of hockey sticks.

Around 10 p.m. on Jan. 12, two men broke into Marc Sport Source for Sports at 455 Maloney Blvd. East and stole $28,000 worth of adult hockey sticks. Police believe the thieves will likely try to resell the sticks, so if someone on your beer league hockey team has suddenly found his scoring touch, it could be that his stick really is hot.
