Spell your name commercial

[GordieHowsUrBreath]

I don't think he's that much younger than Roy and Fedorov.

well being younger makes a difference

brodeur is 45

roy is 51

fedorov is 47

you can have smooth skin at 45 and then hit the wall just 2 or 3 years later, depends on lifestyle and genetics

J


E

Double F...


J

A

Double R

E

Double T!


That's Double J, Jeff Jarrett!


The world's greatest singer, the world's greatest entertainer and (presumably) the world's greatest Nashville Predators fan...

the more i watch it the more i'm annoyed by trottier spelling his full name

seemed a little sneaky

 

[Ms Maggie]

Good concept. Great execution.

Each player probably spelled their full name.

Fun fact: commercials are typically edited before going into rotation.

 

[Filthy Dangles]

lol @ letting Toews get 5 letters. Dude should have goten a T and maybe an o at most

 

[SmellOfVictory]

Teemu, you sell-out. Should've said "ää".

Would've been a good opportunity for a fun moment. "No, put the little dots on top of the 'a's; no, not like that." Then he reaches forward, grabs the engraver, and does it himself.

nah he did it really fast, faster than he should've that's why his teammates laughed

he just had to be one of the few to get his full name on the commericial so people wouldn't be like "who is that T-R-O guy?"

too sneaky for my liking

 

[MrSnrub]

I like it. A bunch of legends... and Jonathan Toews.

 

[Nathaniel Skywalker]

Cringe every time.

 

[kanucks25]

I'm pretty shocked at the mostly negative response in here. I think it's fantastic.

 

[Club]

I like the commercial, especially Brett Hull

I like the commercial, especially Brett Hull

what about bobby sitting next to him?

 

[Chootoi]

I feel like there should be a version of this featuring all the players whose careers were cut short by concussions but they all just blink at the camera cause they can't remember their names.

 

[molsonmuscle360]

Intangibles here. Intangibles there. INTANGIBLES ****ING EVERYWHERE!!!

I LOVE the pricklies commercial. That is pure gold.

 

[Chaels Arms]

I like it. The Cup is the best thing this league has going for it so anytime they bring attention to it is a good thing.

You have no idea why his teammates laughed. They probably joked he couldn't spell.

It's more likely that every player spelled his full name, and the editors did their work to make one name flow into another.

he's a sneaky one, him spelling his full name prevented his teammates from getting a letter from their own name in the commercial

tro... i refuse to spell his full name that rascal

 

[DanyHeatley]

History will be made is the best commercial IMO
VESA TOSKALA is legendary

 

[Lexus]

I haven't seen that one, thankfully.

Here's the 'Spelling' one as the thread refers to.

This one is great, though it's not really a commercial, more a promo/trailer.

Seems a little on the nose. NHL marketing could really use some more outward thinkers.

 

[HitoftheMillennium*]

In case people missed my reference...






Anyway, the commercial is original, and it does highlight the significance of having players' names engraved on the Cup. I don't mind it, but I like some of the NHL's other recent commercials more.


The "100 years is just the beginning" ones are great.
