Every year in September, some of the NHL’s stars gather in Vegas. The goal? To meet with NHL broadcasters and participate in what’s called the car wash. And no, this doesn’t mean Sidney Crosby is going to wash Elliotte Friedman’s car;it’s a way to get the league’s stars in one place to promote themselves. So when we hear a player say, in broken French, that we’re listening to such and such a show, that’s when it’s recorded.This morning, Renaud Lavoie did just that on BPM Sports, live from Vegas. He’s there to represent TVA Sports, of course, and he announced, not surprisingly, that Nick Suzuki represents the Canadiens. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_tCEEPbv_OE What you need to know is that every year for the past few seasons, he’s the one who’s been there. The only exception: when it fell on the day of the Habs golf tournament in 2023.But otherwise, the captain is there every year… in the city where he was drafted. content-ads]It’s also worth mentioning that the Edmonton Oilers, as Renaud Lavoie said, are not represented at the NHL event, which means that Connor McDavid, who is entering the final year of his contract, didn’t show up. Lavoie deplores the fact that McDavid gives interviews to media outlets that are not NHL partners, but doesn’t show up at an event where the emphasis is on marketing more than anything else. Is this something that bothers you?
