    Was watching the all star skills comptetition a bit yesterday and caught a glimpse of one of the players taking video on the ice with his playbook.......forget who it was, it was a quick scene and I'm not a huge enough hockey fan to remember the name.

    thought it was pretty cool

    sorry no pics

    It was Scott Hartnell (Flyers) that they showed on the broadcast. There were 4 others I believe who were given Playbooks to take video with, but off the top of my head the only other one I can remember is Joffrey Lupul (Maple Leafs).

    I saw this too. The player in fact was Scott Hartnell of the Philadelphia Flyers.
    He was skating around the ice during the skills competition using the pb without a case and i saw the BB symbol shining lol.
    Tune in to the all star game at 4pm on CBC/NBC to see if he uses it again!

    I'm glad the PB is getting some publicity out there, but in general, I think people look a bit idiotic when they are taking pictures/videos using tablets. At least the PB is a 7", but still...

    Here's the video. Fast forward to 2:08 to see Philadelphia Flyer's Scott Hartnell record Drake's performance with the playbook.
