I tried watching him play but I got triggered by a jersey ad and spent the night crying instead

 

[Ezekial]

And the NHL doesn't have ads plastered over the entire jersey, pants, helmets and ice.



It is a real complaint though. I don't want the nice looking jerseys to have dumb ads on them. Saying you can't see them is also not true as there are plenty of close up shots and they looks bad in all shots. There is more than enough ads already in this world.

The current ad doesn't affect the ability to watch the broadcast. You will never convince me otherwise. It's a tiny white spec you can't even see from the broadcast angle.

If it affects your ability to watch hockey it's on your own personal feelings and projected anger. I get not liking the ad, I don't like the ad, that's not what I'm saying.

They're not ads. They're sponsorships since Swedish teams don't have billionaire owners but are 51% owned by the fans, making the teams impossible to move

Sooooo, last time I checked the stats of their games vs Rogle, I didn’t see his name in the box score. Has he not been playing?

 

[Ezekial]

Have to say I prefer commercial breaks over ads all over they uniforms.

Yea that's great and everything until you realize you watch more than 45 mins of commercials per game.

You're conditioned to watch 10 mins of commercials every 30 mins of TV. Sitcoms are 20 mins long in 30 min time slots. Slurping up that corporate seed.


I'm done, asp is cool.

I don't watch 45 mins of commercials per game. I watch the games on my computer, and I know how to alt-tab.

So you're saying the breaks that wouldn't exist still happen and you have to find something else to fill the void. Got it.

 

[ShanahanMan]

Anyway, ASP played close to 19 minutes. Didn’t record a point tonight.

I am saying I don't watch the commercials. They are not for me anyway. I am usually in the GDT during games, and those breaks give me time to follow those threads.

It is not a big deal to me.

Doesn't matter what you want to call it, it is advertising and the exact same thing. Only much much more of it.

 

[schuelma24]

Assist on OT game winner. Looking great

Clutch gene has been great this year

 

[Dotter]

Can someone direct me to the thread about ASP's on ice performance, not this dumb one about commercial advertising?

 

[EK47]

Gonna murder the wjc next year.

 

[schuelma24]

ASP about to be an SHL champion.

 

[drwings40]

ASP is an SHL champion.

 

[ShanahanMan]

Had 5 SOG

 

[Pavels Dog]

He was great in the playoffs. However, incredibly dumb coaching to basically never put ASP in the same shooting role on the PP past the halfway point of the season.

 

[Gniwder]

So you're saying the breaks that wouldn't exist still happen and you have to find something else to fill the void. Got it.

Those commercial breaks allow the top lines to play more minutes, since the players get a break. Not having commercial breaks would actually impact the pace of the game, and the relative importance of top players. You probably don't see forwards playing 20+ minutes or defensemen playing 30+ minutes if there were no commercial breaks.

I know it's an odd thing say, but commercial breaks are probably good for the overall quality of play.

 

[RRhoads]

Second highest average TOI for ASP on his team in the finals with 22:04

 

[FabricDetails]

I just want to see Edvinsson and ASP together.

Too soon to revisit this discussion for this year?

I forget if we want ASP in GR next year or for him to stay another year.

Depends on who "we" is. Fans probably want him in GR to start acclimating to NA ice. Yzerman would probably like to put it off and let him mature one more year in Sweden. ASP probably wants SHL or NHL and nothing to do with the AHL, so if he's not making the big club would probably prefer to stay in Sweden with the significantly shorter bus rides.
