Could be this season.

I hope not though, I am not a fan of it
Me neither. First I would expect even more ads in the ice. I did a quick count of ice ads at Webster Bank Arena last year at a Sound Tigers game and came up with 2 behind the goal lines, 3 in each team's zone, and 6 between the blue lines. And that still didn't make the ice seem as cluttered as it is in Europe.

The jerseys should be the last thing the NHL sponsors up.

I hate it, too. The Euro teams look so horrible with the ads and patches all over the sweaters.

But I expect it's inevitable. :(

I imagine they're watching what the NBA did pretty closely.

Did Rajaniemi play at all for Finland last night? Didn’t realize there was preliminaries and missed
Yes he played. Limited viewing but he looked real good for a 6th rounder. Skated well , jumped into the offence on a few occasions and seemed to have real good poise with the puck. Could be a surprise down the road

Looking forward to the WJC but is it my imagination or do we have a remarkably small number of prospects playing in the tournament?
I wonder where that stacks up with the other teams in the league.

I suppose the devil's advocate would say the better Isle's prospects are overagers.

I answered my own question.

There's a link above from a post on the main board.

We are tied for the third lowest number of prospects in the WJC. :(

Based on how the U.S. looked vs Russia, that's not a bad thing. Funny that a lot of posters on the Main Board going into this game kind of forgot how motivated Russia is to win this tournament given how they believe they gave away last year's Finals.

Don't get too worked up about it. There were years where we had a number of prospects playing and very little impact at the NHL level later on.

This is such a great event that I appreciate it for the hockey more than the potential future. What I love so much is how fast the game flows. far less whistles than an NHL game.
