Jackpot. I did a simple YouTube search for St. Louis Blues and found this ad campaign from the 1998-99 season. I don't remember ever seeing these commercials. I'm putting my favorite first just because of the absurd names used — this was a team that had Al MacInnis, Chris Pronger, Pavol Demitra and others but ... you know just listen.

More after the jump, including one that I predict will rile Hildy up with the whole female hockey fan debate.

Geoff Courtnall is ripped.

And finally, the Blues show off the new unis. Faces to look for: Demitra, Pronger, Michael Handzus, Marc Bergevin, Scott Pellerin, Craig Conroy, Michel Picard (who?), Tony Twist, Kelly Chase, Scott Young, Jim Campbell and Courtnall. Enjoy.

That's it for me. Hit up Poor College Student at gametimelinks(at)gmail.com. I'm Audi 5000.
