habookus 1 Report post Posted February 25, 2008 that's the wierdest/most random promotional idea i've ever seen. I mean c'mon, putting your bands logo on a new Easton hockey stick? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DamnLocust 0 Report post Posted February 25, 2008 It's actually not a bad idea at all, especially from Easton's prspective. They're tying in their product to pop culture, albeit not a mainstream band. It makes sense though, as hockey isn't a mainstream sport. Look for others to start following suit. I would have thought that Warrior would have been the first to pull something like this off, as they're all about the marketing and hype. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Seems pointless.yeah obviously its advertising, no different from whats normally on a stick except its a third party. Its not directed towards hockey players looking for the best thing, its directed towards hockey players/atreyu fans Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Viking 1 Report post Posted February 27, 2008 I only sort of know who Atreyu is, but the stick does look kind of cool. I wonder why they haven't done anything like this before. Marketing the stick with a random band seems kind of weird, but if they're putting out sticks with limited/custom designs, they should tie in their players with it - like a design inspired by the player whose pattern it is or something. From a marketing standpoint that just seems to make a lot more sense. It would be like when baseball players in the 80's wore those sweatbands with their faces on them.
