What is Player Licensing?
Player Licensing is a program through which entities seeking to use the names and likenesses of the world’s greatest hockey players obtain those rights. Licensing rights apply to a wide range of corporate sponsorships, advertising, promotions, contests, events, and consumer products, including Electronic Games, Digital Products, Jerseys and Apparel, Trading Cards, Printed Products, Collectibles, and Novelty Items.
A player becomes eligible for inclusion in the NHLPA group licensing program when he skates in his first regular-season or playoff game. Players selected in the entry draft who have not played, as well as retired NHL players, are not represented by the NHLPA in group licensing.
The NHLPA administers its members' worldwide group licensing rights, including their participation in international tournaments and events not directly tied to their NHL clubs.
