Don't get me wrong. These have been the most memorable playoffs in some time. The high energy first round games gives some new fans, ehem ehem, http://bleacherreport.com/articles/358168-nfl-nba-lockout-explained-finally, something forward to look for. One thing is lacking from this season's playoffs however.
Last year the NHL inspired the fans with their "History will be made campaign". Like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6qc7fBl7vO0 . The advertisement was a complete success and they redid them this year but a little differently. Still inspiring and still with great NHL moments. Here is one from this year: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VxnDeb-TLhE&feature=channel_video_title . They are just as good, if not better than the ones from last year (the cheesy rewind was getting old). One problem though this year.
NOT ENOUGH PARODY'S ON THEM!!!
Last season we had millions of parody's of the commercials.

These were both famous moments and FUNNY for hockey fans and other casual sports fans as well. There were millions of other videos just as funny. This year? I think I've seen 1 good one. That's it. It comes from my good friend (he's answered Q's I've asked him before) HockeyWebCaster http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KsEFtPOBNJQ This was histerical. The NHL needs more of these. It's fantastic publicity for the NHL that fans help along and these spoofs make people interested. Lets get more of these up on youtube, shall we?
