I think the people obsessing about LG and those who think she's okay are a bit more creepy than the ones who call her attractive.
Most of the time we talk about Lauren or Alexis it's just dudes being dudes and having a bit fun. Nothing wrong with that. Especially when you get crushed by Vegas 7-0 or something.

When you go on an hockey message board and see like an entire page or two drooling over what she's wearing or how much makeup she has on, it's creepy. Especially after the 500th time.

I agree that it's a bit much at times but it's also not "creepy". Most of the time we keep it civil - and that's all you can ask for cause 95% of us are men. And usually we are animals ;)

Yo, cool it. I just sported an LG avatar for two weeks, but if it bothers people here I think we can hit the breaks on that stuff. Now, I won't back down on the fact that she's only ever done work where she's there to be ogled at - because that's true - and I don't see a problem with most of what's posted here about the broadcast team, but I most certainly don't have to post that stuff. We'll talk strictly about ice time and possession numbers.

Hey, she is a beautiful lady! But sometimes I have to double take if I'm on a GDT or the Pornhub comment section.

Whatever, I didn't think it was that bad, especially since that's stuff is strictly against the rules AFAIK. I know at least one thread last season got heavily modded because of it, but I didn't think it was a regular occurrence. I don't follow GDT's that closely, I generally just chime in early on or at the end. If it gets that bad it's not okay. Female posters on here shouldn't have to deal with a lot of meathead bullshit, and I'll admit I've made the odd comment that toed or crossed that line a few times.

I can't imagine how boring that would be. We also talk a lot about Rykers, let's call it, choice of clothing. Maybe we should stop doing that too because ppl could get offended. What a wonderful world we are living in.:(

Colorado Avalanche: Full line combination predictions for 2018-19

This popped up on my phone.... Written 11 hours ago. What a brutal article lol. Don't know if this is the right place to post.

No mention of cole, or calvert.

These pairings....
Tyson Barrie- Erik Johnson

Mark Barberio-Nikita Zandarov

David Warsfsky-Patrik Nemeth


Zandarov....?

Also says Barrie and Johnson are the strongest defensive players..

"Tyson Barrie and Erik Johnson are the top defensive pairing. They complement each other as the strongest defensive players. and they work well together."

"Johnson is a tough defenseman who usually leads the team with hits and penalties.

Neither of these have happened once. Never has Erik johnson led this team in either hits or pim.... That took me 3 min to look up on nhl.com. Man the coverage on this team usually sucks but whatever this is is rough.

Strictly from a rinkside reporter standpoint LG is vastly superior to AP. She's gotten much better over the last 2 years too.

Listening to AP do a player interview is like nails on a chalkboard. She's awful, and just as bad on Avs TV inside The Pepsi Center too. The blonde at The Can (sorry, can't recall her name at the moment (Nicole?)) is way better than her too.

Last 2 tweets were deleted. What were they?

Oh I see. So apparently he and Brad Miller do a podcast together (The Morning Bagger, I've only listened to one, it was actually pretty good). Well, they did one, not anymore. O'Sullivan told Miller BTS that he owns the rights to the logo, name, and content of the pod and wants it all erased now that he's pursuing other opportunities. Miller disagreed and wanted it to continue, so both sides took the fight public, culminating in O'Sullivan threatening legal action.
