They've always sucked.

Remember when they came up with "play hard" and had to pull it because the team was loafing on the ice?

From the people who brought you..

"Serious hockey, serious fans"
"The time is now"

IT's BROWN TIME!

I hated doing marketing pitch lines. You feel no matter what you put out there, it'll be cheesy. Plus, you know it can backfire on you.

That said, if the marketing team failed, so did everyone else, because NO ONE would have thought we'd be scoring less than Napolean Dynamite right now.

If that was correct, we'd all be virgins.

But we'd get to second, maybe third base quite often. Or get completely shut down and c--k blocked by a backup goalie.

Fans marketing tagline:

Before any of us die, please!

"The time is now.... to raise ticket prices even when we miss the playoffs"...

And they used the picture of a player we ended up trading away.

With the usual grabbing of the females breast? The LA Kings-we score more off the ice where it matters.

It was either Jim Beam or Wild Turkey. Jack Daniels is a black label...

I stand corrected

So basically it tells the reader than they never get laid.

Then shows a pic of Jack Johnson.

I feel great knowing I haven't consumed enough alcohol where I know the labels by heart. Sometimes it's good to be wrong.

I was on the redline yesterday and there was a Kings advertisement showing Williams and Johnson...I don't suppose 99.9999% of redline riders would know the difference though.
