AtomicPunk 296 Report post Posted October 23, 2009 They have FOUR of these on the glass. One at each end and one on each side of center ice. Can you imagine trying to watch a game through a CHASE logo? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CenterIce 83 Report post Posted October 23, 2009 Maybe these are like the ads at some baseball games that you can only see on TV? It does look annoying, though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AtomicPunk 296 Report post Posted October 23, 2009 I sure hope it is computer generated! I know if I had those seats, especially for what people pay in New York, I would be furious. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jaymister 71 Report post Posted October 23, 2009 I would ask for refund if my seats were in front of those signs. People pay good money to go to these games and they don't do it to look at advertizing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Mule 0 Report post Posted October 23, 2009 This was implemented last year, and people online freaked out without doing any research then, too. It's a computer-generated advertisement, meaning only those watching the game on television can see it, and while it may be a tad distracting, it isn't a real deterrent. No such ads exist in person.

Cern 0 Report post Posted October 23, 2009 It's a bit of an eyesore, but I'd take CG ads on the glass over jersey ads any day of the week Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevkrause 1,247 Report post Posted October 23, 2009 How have some people not picked up on the fact that this is CGI yet? Just like the 1st and 10 graphics in football are not actually on the field! This is only for viewers on TV and I actually find it to be a brilliant marketing use of ad space... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mjlegend 155 Report post Posted October 23, 2009 It's a bit of an eyesore, but I'd take CG ads on the glass over jersey ads any day of the week Yeah, I'd hate to have a two-inch wide Reebok Edge logo right above the name plate on the back of every player's jersey. Honestly, I know what you mean but logo creep is already in the NHL. I think we're maybe four or five years away from seeing a random auto maker logo, or satellite radio logo prominently on the front of some team's jersey. I just hope it isn't ours.

I just hope it isn't ours. ok, there is a difference between the manufacturer of a jersey putting their logo on it and what is already in place in europe http://hockeyadventure.com/wp-content/them.../eurojersey.jpg while i do realize some teams do have some additional logos on jerseys or helmets, its kinda silly that you use total hyperbole and attack reebok putting their logo on their own product.

I'd like for you to go to your desk and identify any products within sight that DO NOT have the company logo/name/etc. somewhere on the product. Now I'd like you to identify any products that do.

thegerkin 189 Report post Posted October 23, 2009 It does beat those lightbox ads in the boards that shine onto the ice. Exactly. Those ads are way too bright and distracting. They should be about half as luminescent, so they don't reflect on the ice surface. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

OsGOD 3 Report post Posted October 23, 2009 I have a feeling if they were real ads on the glass and not CG'd they would be similar to trucks rear window graphic... you see the item on the outside looking in, but when you are in the inside looking out, you can see right through it. To me the netting is still the worst obstruction they have on the ice to date Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
