TORONTO (Sept. 17, 2007) -- The MSM Group of Companies today announced an agreement to become the official trucking and logistics company of the Hockey Hall of Fame, the shrine dedicated to preserving the sport's most treasured artifacts and greatest achievements.

As part of the arrangement, MSM will be responsible for coordinating warehousing, customs clearance, and transportation of the Hockey Hall of Fame's mobile exhibits, interactive games, and other public outreach programs.

"We are proud to partner with the Hockey Hall of Fame and to help communities across North America connect with the history and pageantry of the sport," said Mike McCarron, managing partner of the MSM Group of Companies. "It's an honor to be entrusted with such a prized collection and to be part of the Hockey Hall of Fame family."

At any given time, only a small fraction of the collection is on display at the Hockey Hall of Fame in Toronto. Each year, an extensive travel schedule brings trophies, artifacts, and other treasures of the game to thousands of hockey fans in their communities.

The exhibits will be in good hands. The MSM Group of Companies offers a wide range of commercial transportation services in the United States and Canada and is one of the leading providers of trade show exhibit transportation in North America.

The agreement also strengthens MSM's involvement with the hockey community. The company owns the St. Michael's Buzzers of the Ontario Provincial Junior A hockey league, a revered institution of St. Michael's College School in Toronto.

"The Hockey Hall of Fame promotes the values we aspire to in our business: commitment, excellence, and achievement," said Bob Murray, president of the MSM Group of Companies. "This partnership is all about preserving and sharing the rich history of hockey, and we're excited to help carry on the tradition."
