But it is way of the future and at least it is not terribly obtrusive ... ads on the boards looked VERY strange when it started and now when re-watching the "games of my youth" the white boards are almost a distraction.

The Chicoutimi Cucumber Posted September 12, 2022 Share Posted September 12, 2022 Arena boards are one thing, la sainte flanelle is another. But I get it. Gotta “move with the times,” i.e., maximize profits as much as possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dlbalr Posted September 12, 2022 Share Posted September 12, 2022 It's important to note that these are only for home games. That means there's probably another one of these announcements coming for road sweaters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ads on sweaters across the league will contribute (to whatever small degree) to increased revenues and thus a higher salary cap ... as long as they keep it minimalist and don't go "Champions League" ridiculous I can live with it.

Wondering if there may be Canadian road sweater and US road sweater advertisers ... that MIGHT maximize revenues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prime Minister Koivu Posted September 12, 2022 Share Posted September 12, 2022 The Habs should “advertise” their logo on the leaf jersey. Great brand advertising strategy for sure. It would be the topic of every blog, podcast, tweet, Sportsnet broadcast in Canada for months. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Habsfan84 Posted September 13, 2022 Share Posted September 13, 2022 I am sure there will be more teams but if that is all the teams doing it, I would be rather disappointed in the Habs. They are the only original 6 team on the list so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sir_Boagalott Posted September 13, 2022 Share Posted September 13, 2022 I was aware that ads on jerseys would be a new thing, but the placement of it looks ridiculous. The patch would look better if it was on the shoulder. Plus, they could double the revenue that way. i.e. players have 2 shoulders. Does anyone know how much RBC paid for that honor?

Prime Minister Koivu Posted September 13, 2022 Share Posted September 13, 2022 Yeah Commandment is right that it will be every team soon. It’s rare for a business to not increase revenue in anyway that it can. Habs and leaf’s don’t need the revenue but they will both pursue it.

Commandant Posted September 13, 2022 Share Posted September 13, 2022 After all the money lost due to Covid, you knew this was coming, and the reality is that once its there it's never going back. As for placement, they put it where it is prominent... front of the jersey is shown more on TV then on the shoulders. You think that if they could get double for two shoulders, they wouldn't do that? LOL. They are putting it where its making the most money. Both players and owners want this, so it's a battle we can't win. Might as well just accept it at this point. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the helmet ads are also different home and road. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
