PokerStars proudly announces an exciting new partnership with the National Hockey League's Philadelphia Flyers, becoming the first poker brand to partner with the team.
As the official sponsor of the Philadelphia Flyers, PokerStars will work closely with the team to offer PokerStars players the chance to win Flyers tickets and exclusive signed memorabilia through special poker tournaments and monthly draws at PokerStars Casino.
The PokerStars brand will also appear in all home games at the Wells Fargo Center and in television advertisements, enhancing PokerStars' influence in North America.
Rob Battista, Senior Director of Business for PokerStars North America, said: "We are thrilled to partner with such a beloved hockey team. Hockey fans are among the most passionate in the world, and we can't wait to work with the team to bring exciting games and rewards to the communities in Pennsylvania and New Jersey."
Todd Glickman, Chief Revenue Officer at Comcast Spectacor, said: "We are very excited to welcome PokerStars to the Flyers family. Their commitment to innovation and providing rich rewards and experiences to players aligns perfectly with our goal of attracting an outstanding fan base."
This partnership is another move by PokerStars following partnerships with the NHL's Detroit Red Wings in Michigan and Maple Leaf Sports & Entertainment in Ontario, which owns the Toronto Raptors (NBA) and the Maple Leafs (NHL).
