News Article: Colorado Avalanche Media Coverage Part V

[Balthazar]

Yeah boy if San Jose had any idea they really would have squeezed us on Dubnyk. Best to keep fans in the dark for three months.

They strongly believe that they have nothing to gain by telling us what's going on...which is technically true but also a statement about how much they respect the "journalists" covering the team.

Keeping the fans happy is ultimately their business but I’m completely fine with their taking care of the on ice stuff first even if that means we, as fans, are kept in the dark.

Oh man that article had me rolling with those translations. We gotta get this guy to interview more players.

Demon McDavid, that name should stick. Someone probably rushing out to personalize a 97 jersey with that.

 

[Pokecheque]

Will you cut anyone that comes after you?

Anyone but the Edmonton Demon McDavid.

 

[John Mandalorian]

Have you ever had remorse for making money by wasting?

[ASmileyFace]

What a great interview, glad we finally got a lens into what is going on with Frankie.

The translations had me rolling. Demon McDavid is a nickname that is going to stick.

McDemon

What are all the people with McJesus jerseys going to do? Get into scraps with guys sporting McDemon jerseys?

Ferraro was probably the best case scenario for either network so good for ESPN. Hopefully he still continues to do work with TSN as well.

Apparently TNT is bringing in Gretzky as one of the in studio analysts.

 

[John Mandalorian]

I just realized he’s married to Cammi Granato. Does anyone see what’s happening here?

 

[Foppa2118]

How much money did they have to pay Gretz to do that in studio gig?

 

[Hasbro]

How much money did they have to pay Gretz to do that in studio gig?

Too much.

 

[Gigantor The Goalie]

Too much.

Especially when all he's going to say is "wow this guy is the greatest player ever"

Wayne Gretzky entering a room is like two people leaving it.

Wayne Gretzky entering a room is like two people leaving it.

I dont get this expression

 

[Pokecheque]

They're making comparisons between Wayne Gretzky and Charles Barkley. Ummmmm...hey I love The Great One as much as the next guy, and his SNL hosting gig remains an underrated gem, but are they seriously expecting him to show a boatload of personality because...have they met Wayne?

If they want a personality who was a great player... they need to target Roy. He has other ambitions, but he'd make every broadcast must see TV.

Good call. My only reluctance is he might have an axe to grind.

I'd like Sid Seixeiro to be involved somehow.

How does coverage of Avalanche games work when we're in the playoffs? Is Altitude still a thing? Is there still a broadcast with Moser and McNab doing the commentary? Aside from one or two first round games the only ones I ever get from NHL TV are always the national broadcast. I'd hate to think we might win the cup and I don't get to hear those two screeching over the top of it.

Altitude gets the first round, after that it's just national coverage.

McNab at least will likely join Conor McGahey on the radio broadcasts after Altitude's TV coverage ends.

Yep. Could not agree more.
