I am using a set of Bauer X5 pads and blocker with a CCM eFlex 7.5 catcher.

I absolutely love the 580 break but protection could be a bit better.

I have an opportunity to purchase a brand new Bauer Vapor 90 with Hyperlite 2 graphics (so matches the X5s) for $399 CAD, which puts it in the price range of an eFlex 7.9 ($379) and the new SV Pro 90 ($399).

The pro eFlex 7 at $600+ is out of my price range.

Was just wondering if this is a no brainer vs the eFlex 7.9. Only reason I am hesitant is how much I like the 7.5 so might consider sticking to CCM.
