Everyone knows that the iconic American singer Elvis Presley was an extraordinary entertainer, and Elvis Merzļikins takes after his fabled namesake. When he earned the first shutout of his NHL career in Las Vegas, he did so with thrilled fans chanting his name. Merzļikins was named after Elvis Presley, of whom his father was a great fan. People worldwide love the 30-year-old goalkeeper’s personality and style on ice and off it.
“We are delighted to partner with Elvis to thrill Latvian ice hockey fans. OlyBet has supported ice hockey in Latvia for many years and brought the NHL Stanley Cup to Latvia for the first time and supported the National Team on the way to bronze in last year’s IIHF World Championships. This partnership with Elvis will bring ice hockey fans closer to the top-level of world competitions and sports excitement that only OlyBet delivers,” Corey Plummer, CEO of OlyBet Group, said.
“I am thrilled to embark on this collaboration journey with OlyBet as their brand ambassador. This partnership presents an incredible opportunity for me to connect more with hockey enthusiasts in Latvia. I aim to enhance the experience by engaging with fans at OlyBet events and embracing the spirit of the OlyBet brand. Sports have a remarkable power to unify and foster a sense of belonging. I am confident that, together with OlyBet, we will create unforgettable and dynamic moments for every sports enthusiast in Latvia,” Elvis Merzļikins said.
