Saint John Metro Ball Hockey League & NHLPA Team Up To Create A Commercial

Gary Crossman who is the president of Saint John Metro Bal Hockey League, believes part of the success was due to the leagues move towards a better social media profile. " I think having a new twitter account for the league and it's activity to setup for the 3on3 spring classic was a huge reason Budweiser reached out to the league for help."

The commercial which allowed the SJMBHL to choose two men's teams to compete in an outdoor game was shot in about 3 hours as the team's had to play a full game with 3 twenty minute periods. "Was a pretty cool experience we did O'Canada before the game and they played the tunes for us all game and even had a goal horn for when the goals were scored, the whole thing was put together nice."Said Matt Buckley who played goalie for the Most Wanted. Hockey St. located in Saint John, NB just off the Westmorland Rd was named due to the city's move towards a better 911 system, the street is the only one named such in all of North America.

To start off the second period they surprised the players and fans by bringing in 6 members of the NHLPA. Zenon Konopka, Sean Monahan, Casey Cizikas, Cory Conacher, Steve Webb, Grant Clitsome and TJ Galiardi all threw on jerseys to finish off the game. The event which saw the Mustangs dawning Knights jerseys and ahead most of the game ended with a huge come back for the Most Wanted to win 23-22.
