Another awesome commercial from the Bruins



Don't you just love those commercials the Bruins are making with the big ass bear?  They're classic hilarity.  I, for one, am glad that the Avs are making commercials that are this good.  I mean,  the Bruins and Avs should have a commercial face-off!  That would be...oh wait.  Never mind.  I don't know if these commercials would actually bring in new folks to hockey games, but they are damn funny.  Here's a new one to feast your eyes upon.  Enjoy my little MHHers!

I love it. I also caught the “Hibernation” one for the first time. Great marketing campaign, since the original (The Tuck always makes me laugh). Beachie said it though, the Avs marketing department could…OK, I lost my train of though

Imagine how menacing Bernie could be ….. oh, nevermind. Carry on. Nothing to see here Av marketing department.

Lameness. No creativity. Hockey term. Deep voice.

Tuck In is my favorite by far.

Acquired from Pensburgh for a first round pick and two comment posters to be named later.

I like the girlfriend in the habs jersey. Meek voice, “But she’s so pretty.” Whap!

Thats my favourite as well, because I despise people who tuck hockey jerseys in with the exception of players on the ice. I myself tuck the back of mine in, thats just how I roll. It’s a hockey jersey, not a fashion icon. If you want to tuck a shirt in buy a douchebag Ed Hardey or metro polo shirt.

The Savage has spoken. Let it be done

Damn it

I pitched a campaign EXACTLY like this to Avalanche marketing like 4 years ago. Except it was a Hulk Hogan type guy in an Avs jersey.

Obviously the bear is way cooler…but the Avs have nothing nearly that good as a mascot.

Rockies commercials have been money for years. I love ’em.

Forever grateful that Joe Sakic isn't a douche bag like Brett Favre.

I love a quality hockey commercial

and the fact that it’s from the B’s makes it even better.

We will fight in the mountains. We will fight in the valleys. We will fight on the ice and in the stands. We will never surrender.
