I just came across this

In this past Sunday’s Toronto Star, columnist Rick Westhead reported that the NHL is considering using goalies as billboards to generate more revenue for the league. According to Westhead, there is a “Goaltender’s Club” — consisting of at least Martin Brodeur, Marty Turco, Dominik Hasek and Dwayne Roloson — that has presented the idea of having advertisements from sponsors put on all goalie’s jerseys in the NHL. It is speculated that this advertising could generate up to $30 million in revenue for the league. Can’t you see it now? Dominik Hasek, brought to you by Requip (restless leg syndrome drug)…
So its got me thinking what should be advertised on Goalies? or what about players they are seen too. ummm I will start a few and well lets see how creative we all are on this site.
I will take all the ideas in the comments listed then update the blog with the suggestions everyone has come up with. Come on now this will be a balst.
New York Rangers :
Scott Gomez – Redi Edge Ice we keep your skates sharp so you don’t lose an edge.
Stephen Valliquet – Jolly Green Giant vegtables: eat them and be like me.
Phialdelphia Flyers :
Martin Biron – Mason Contractors: we build walls to keep things out.
New York Islanders :
Rick Dipietro – Bayer Asprin:Will help you avoid having a heart attack when Rick leaves the net.
Okay thats all I got for now. I look foward to hearing your ideas and be crative. Remember the advertising could be for local companies, small, large doesn’t matter. Just be creative.

You gotta be joking....
This is a horrible idea, but I like some of the examples…here’s some more:Patrick Roy-Teaching young men values since 1986.
Chris Osgood-Billy Banks Tai Bow (Just in case Roy comes knockin’)
Sidney Crosby-That lump is not a hemorrhoid
Brian Berrard- Envesting in plexiglass
Jim Carey-The comedians jokes last longer
Wayne Gretzkey- Just been outed for AA
Bobby Clarke- FDA’s Official spokesperson
Jagr- Beautician says, “He put my kid through college!!”
Chara- The real Jolly Green Giant
Brett Lindros- Helping doctors with head injuries since 1996.
Mike Ricci-Poster boy for Rhinoplasty
Jeremy Roenick-Member of the AARP
This is to help expand out of the goalie relm…give ‘em to all the players. Let Bettman have this…let the league fall lower than the California Penal Baseball league.

Guys Steve Dangle has posted a few on his blog, here they are
I read Broadstreetbully23’s blog about the rumored idea for goaltenders to have advertisements on their jerseys so the NHL can generate more money. Broadstreetbully23 comically started to come up with possible ads to go with certain goalies. This idea was to good to NOT rip off, so here we go, all the NHL goalies I can think of ads for:
J.S. Giguere – Will Smith’s Big Willie Style (Gettin’ Jiggy wit it)
Tim Thomas – “Feeling angry? Ask your doctor about Ativan.”
Andrew Raycroft – “Trouble staying awake on the bench? Try Starbucks.”
Thomas Vokoun – Sex Panther: 60% of the time, it work all the time.
Martin Brodeur – Dirt Devil Vacuums.
Carey Price – Price Chopper: Put more in your cart for less.
Robert Esche – Need a job? Find one on Monster.com
Ray Emery – Ralph Lauren Purple Label
Marc-Andre Fleury – Happy Feet
Patrick Roy – Father-Son camping trips
That’s the best I could do for now haha. See you later.
