BodyArmor to replace BioSteel as NHL official sports drink

[BraveCanadian]

Never heard of it and also don't care.

 

[Rich Nixon]

Body Armor tastes good but I find it almost more juice-like. The coconut water makes it more viscous than Gatorade, but it tastes less like pure chemicals and more like fruit.

 

[MMC]

Is it more popular than BioSteel in the states ?

Yes by a significant margin. I drink BodyArmor on occasion and know many other people who drink it and frequently see people drinking it at the gym or getting it at the gas station. None of which I can say for BioSteel.

Idk how popular BioSteel is in Canada but I can't say I've ever seen anyone drinking it there or talking about it and I've been multiple times, and it really had no presence down here. Only reason I ever heard of it is their NHL deal and the only time I ever had it was when they gave it away outside the Honda Center after Ducks games. Can't say I was a fan really.

I also don't get why it was in boxes.

Disappointed. NHL missed a major opportunity

I like Body Armor - it's typically on sale at my Kroger affiliate when I'm headed up to hockey so I end up buying one to drink on the drive home.

Never heard of Body Armor till this thread. Figures it was just an April Fools joke.

It took me a little bit to figure out this thread wasnt about UnderArmor and i was very confused.

They get me through Friday morning hangovers at work after dart night with the boys Thursdays. Highly recommend.

The stuff in boxes is mixed waaay to sweet imo and it leaves out all the vitamins.

No. Only Gatorade in a can.

Agua.

They're both sports drinks? They sound like chainmail brands or something

 

[DisgruntledHawkFan]

Is it more popular than BioSteel in the states ?

BioSteel is everywhere and aside from maybe gatorade/powerade stuff there isn't a real "rival" to it, so this seems like the NHL taking more from a lesser brand.

Gatorade is #1 by a mile in the states. Is that not the case in Canada?

It’s pretty much the only thing I’ve ever seen anyone remotely athletic drinking for the last few years

 

[Hank Plank]

BioSteel is the worst product name of all time.

 

[Rare Jewel]

Anyone else read Brind'Amour? I was like holy shit that guy does it all.

Yep. lol

Huge in the US. Kobe Bryant invested millions into it during its early days and then it really blew up. Owned by Coca-Cola I believe

 

[Kryten]

Maybe theyll spell it Body Armour in Canada

 

[Brodeur]

I never seen this shit before until the past few months.

Before they were bought out, I remember them as a startup passing out free bottles at Spring Training circa 2013. It tasted so bad that I've never given it another chance. But kudos to the creator for cashing in, definitely not something I would have forecast after that first taste.

sounds like it must be time to bring back The Guardian Project

Biosteel expanded too quick and it came back to bite them in the ass

There's another South Park "sport drink" you could have picked...

 

[Three On Zero]

Agua.

That’s what a dog would say…
