MTH Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 The NHL is sadly allowing ads on helmets and all this season. I will not be sad when some of these Dave Art masks get replaced with a McDonald's logo. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My understanding is, this may totally be incorrect, that these are how teams are fulfilling certain sponsorship requirements that are being lost with no fans in the . Yes it’s a door that’s opening but it’s not a true revenue stream from my understanding. Although that totally could be wrong. I just don’t see stickers on helmets, especially during a season that everything is only being televised, as the end of the world. I don’t even see small jersey patches as an issue. The NHL will never become the European leagues. We are lucky that we are one of the 3 major leagues (MLB and NFL included) in the world that don’t have ads on gear (besides this year). But football and baseball have stupid huge TV Contracts to where they can afford to not need the ad revenue. Maybe I’m just in the minority in thinking that these ads, especially this year, aren’t a huge deal hah. If the NHL is able to negotiate a huge TV contract that could help long run as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keeperton Posted January 12, 2021 Share Posted January 12, 2021 I genuinely don't care if there are ads on their stuff if hockey is still happening. The boards are covered, it's on the ice, like if you're upset about this be upset about the rampant advertising all over the rest of the game (every powerplay being sponsored, the final five being sponsored, etc.). It's a stupid hill to die on. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NHL is a business and the only reason they hadn't implemented this yet was due to fan backlash. The pandemic "forcing" their hand to start advertising on jerseys/equipment is exactly the perfect scenario for the NHL to introduce this. They estimate that the extra revenue is around the $120 Million range. Like the NHL is just going to give that up even when thins return back to normal. I like the Stolarz mask, but there just isn't enough orange in the Ducks' jerseys to effectively match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also the mask could be for the orange third jerseys they wore, correct me on that if they aren’t wearing those ones, i just haven’t heard anything on that. he has a contrasting black mask that i like better anyways Edited January 12, 2021 by southpawtendy48 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tubby34 Posted January 12, 2021 Share Posted January 12, 2021 On 1/8/2021 at 8:30 AM, RichMan said: Coming back to the licensing and Warrior discussion... It's quite clear that Pete wouldn't want to experience another Tim Thomas episode should they re-enter the league with their gear. As someone stated above, if a goalie truly wanted a set, he would get one period, that I agree. They could just place their own custom order and have it delivered to KW for inspection. Of course, if the goalie asks for logo-less gear, that would be a clear signal of a NHL/AHL goalie ordering. Would Warrior accept? Don't know. What if it's because the gear is not conformed to NHL/AHL rules? This I very much doubt but one never knows. The leagues will go where the money is and who is willing to splurge. It's a monopoly game. Very surprising and frustrating and confusing that Warrior won't play with the big boys. Sure, they got their own clout going at the moment and doing fine. Still...I have mixed emotions on this one. Excuse me... MInd if I ask, what happened with Tim Thomas and Warrior? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Believe the short answer is what we all know about Thomas - super high maintenance gear-wise - constantly wanting to tweak, retweak his gear (which is probably a nightmare if you are a gear manufacturer). Also - if you are happy with your final design guess you could be loathe to make wholesale changes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is lot of ads in TV broadcast if you compare Europe. Here Europe the ads are in the jerseys and ice not in the mouth of commentator or my TV screen 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
