In this ad promoting the Stanley Cup Playoffs, there are no brawls, no high-sticking, no real action of any kind. Instead, the focus is on names, all of which will be familar to longtime fans of the game.
Wayne Gretzky, Gordie Howe, Steve Yzerman, all players who have had their names carved on the coveted cup. As the ending narration states, "Once it has been engraved, it will never be forgotten."
