A couple of readers have mentioned the advertisement in The Hockey News that contains a picture of two West Virginia hockey players. Now, I know that WVU is a club team and thus is not governed by NC$$ rules. What I am wondering about is if this would have been legal if the players were from an NC$$ team. Can athletes appear in advertisements, even if they do not receive any money? I suspect not. If hockey cards were ruled illegal last year, then certainly advertisements are also.
