In Fiction
A billboard advertisement for a fictional 'Eastern Hockey League' appeared in the movie Friday the 13th Part VIII: Jason Takes Manhattan. The advertisement featured a prominent 'old style' masked goaltender, to which Jason Voorhees looks confusingly at, then stands next to, highlighting the resemblance. This movie was released in 1989, however: at least eight years after the previous Eastern Hockey League folded.
