For the sponsorships that roll to him, its your usual hockey equipment, the sticks; the skates; the pucks; the helmets; the gum.

However, he does have to work for the deals a bit out of his zone. For example, he does do some equipment sponsorships for boxing and MMA, given his stature and size, and his reputation as a mean hitter and a teeth rattler. Those, since he doesn't have any naturally connections in those sports, means he and his agent have to really work to get companies to give him a look and a sponsorship.
