October 19, 2005

As many heavy metal fans may already know, Metal Blade Records owner and CEO, Brian Slagel, is an extreme enthusiast of hockey and has appeared many times as a guest on Canada's TSN "Off The Record" (Canada's version of ESPN) expressing his opinions on the sport and much more as well as supporting Central Hockey League teams like the Wichita Thunder, Ft. Worth Brahmas, Lake Charles Ice Pirates, and the Miami Manatees. And now he will be showing his support of the game by sponsoring the Central Hockey League's Power Players on their web site as well as sponsoring their weekly radio show, "On Edge with the CHL", which will not only feature Metal Blade ads but will also have Brian Slagel on as a guest. Metal Blade will also be sponsoring the Ft. Worth Brahmas' "shooter" warm-up jerseys and during the warm-ups they will be playing Metal Blade videos on their scoreboard. The Wichita Thunder will also be included as Metal Blade will be sponsoring the "Player of the Week" section on their web site and their radio programs.

"The Central Hockey League is very pleased to further develop an already outstanding partnership with Brian Slagel and Metal Blade Records," CHL President Brad Treliving said in a statement. "Through the continued strength of our 'Metal Blade Power Players' and our new 'On Edge' weekly Internet radio broadcast, we fully expect our fans to further enjoy the synergies between our brand of professional hockey and Metal Blade Records, trend-setters in the music industry for over two decades."

Commented Slagel: "Metal Blade has always been very excited to cross promote our product and brand with the Central Hockey League. They are the leaders in value entertainment and sport. We enjoy working with them and look forward to the continuation for many years of our partnership."
