Funny ads with hockey players, about hockey etc

[Kshahdoo]

I'll start with this video (it's a mobile network operator's commercial). Two dudes are discussing a game, one says "Who does shoot this way, it's not hockey but figure skating". The other answers "It's Afinogenov, he won't be able to shoot from 1 meter". And then...



Afinogenof says "From one meter with ease"

I see this maybe two or three times every game I watch, and it's still funny. NHL really nailed it here.

The only reason I find this amusing is because Felix Potvin of all people destroyed his tough-guy image for all of time.

"kids these days"

i'll bet they have no clue on the history of the song used in the ad

‘Ça plane pour moi’ was a burst of Belgian punk with a dark twin

Plastic Bertrand’s 1978 hit has lived on in adverts and cover versions

This one has made me chuckle. Voronkov appears more natural when speaking to the camera at the end of the commercial but when he is behind the counter, not so much.

Beat me to it. Max Talbot did a whole series of these "Superstar Treatment" commercials for the auto dealer, that progressively got worse. So bad they were good, had me in stitches back at the time, and to this day crack me up for some reason.

Does this count? I still quote this with my buds.

There’s a longer version where she likes him and then he just leaves and someone else sits down.

“I’m just the set up man.”

I had no idea about this until my wife found it while scrolling TikTok and finding a comment in a video.

 

[Derailed75]

Yeah what then?

McDavid is too old for that gen z crowd, ain’t he ?

Theres a better Oates commercial from the first time ESPN got the broadcast rights. Hes out doing yard work and the tell him "the NHL is now on ESPN" and he says something like "that's great, you want to kick my dogs while you are here?" cause it was after he retired.

I was wrong it was Neely.

He's on the cusp. I think. Generations are very wiggly these days.

Always loved that last one.
