NHL All-Stars

The Pittsburgh Penguins are an excellent hockey club with many skilled players, but some other teams do not have many skilled players and this can affect the teams performance and money making abilities.  When teams have skilled players, a lot more merchandise can be sold to the fans.  An example is team jerseys. The team jerseys are worn at games either watched live or at home, and these purchases go towards the Pittsburgh Penguin organization. Since the Penguins have Sidney Crosby, Jordan Staal, Evgeni Malkin, Kris Letang, and Marc-Andre Fleury, there are many jerseys that can be sold all over the world for profitable gains towards the Penguin Organization. Having NHL all-stars on a team will increase the chances of victory, but more importantly the business can never go bankrupt since millions of people are buying products from the Penguins organization.
                One of the key hockey players that contributes to the team’s success and the organizations profit is Sidney Crosby. A young captain that is at the top of the leader board every year is what every organization wants. This young player draws in millions of dollars, whether people come to watch him live or they watch him on television. Also, since he is one of the best players in the NHL, he is the reason of why many sponsors are giving the Pittsburgh Penguins money. If a club has no all-stars, sponsors will feel that not as many people will watch them and therefore their business won’t get recognized. So, if teams want to be successful with money, having all-stars on their team like the Pittsburgh Penguins is what needs to be done.
