I'd be ok with an ad for the Canes on the jersey.Or at the very least the exact same color as the main jersey.... and not stitched... or screen printed.... or heat sealed

As long as its minimal like this, I am not sure I'll care. But damn, when the Habs were in town last week it was hard to not see how obnoxious their jersey ads are, and if we ever go that direction you will be able to see my seething anger from spaceI think it's minimal and barely even notice it. It probably is breaking the ice for ads all over the jerseys though. Kind of like how airlines started slowly charging for more and more things over time until we are now just used to it.

I'm pretty ambivalent to the whole thing. I've never been a jersey person to begin with and don't often wander into this thread, but other than the GDT, it popped up to the top so I clicked on it.As long as its minimal like this, I am not sure I'll care.

Maybe I'll have a different view if they get like some of the European leagues where ads are everywhere if that ends up distracting from watching the on-ice product.
The digital TV ads on the boards, for the most part, didn't bother me other than the ones that rolled along making it extremely distracting when watching the game. I think it was a tire one that was the worst. I barely notice them now unless it's one like that.
Fair, yeah I earned thatBut seething anger from you seems so out of character...
My brother-in-law knows the owner of a company that had physical ads on the boards at PNC for years. I don't know if they still do as I don't look closely enough at them, but when the digital ads came out, they started evaluating if it made sense or not to continue paying for the physical ads.I only notice those digital ads when they glitch out. Doesn't seem to be happening as much this year, but it still happens. Honestly, I'm surprised that teams are still able to sell physical ads on boards. Seems pointless given they're just going to be covered up on broadcast.
I would hope they now have tiers.My brother-in-law knows the owner of a company that had physical ads on the boards at PNC for years.

My guess is any loss in ad revenue gets far surpassed by the revenue from the digital ads, but who knows.
EDIT: I just looked up the companies website and it still lists the Canes as a partner in their sponsorship section so I assume the physical ads are still there.
They've always had tiers- the TV side of the rink commanded much higher rates than the non-TV side. I assume that these days, they're only able to charge the much lower rate for any ad on the board since the broadcasters have erased them for TV purposes.I would hope they now have tiers.
speaking of jerseys, I really like the new Charlotte FC kit, though them working the silhouette of Pilot Mtn into it would have made it next level considering that's one of the most identifiable landmarks on the east coast
Been kicking that hornet nest in the general forum all week@Svechhammer fanatics is already ruining baseball jerseys
Hope you like th current jerseys
