I can’t speak for all women, obviously, and maybe I am just getting old, but there aren’t a lot of lookers in this current crop.
Then there is this whole phenomenon of looking completely different when the helmet comes off (I’m talking to you, Ryan Getlaf).
Henrik Lundqvist is my current fave, but he’s Swedish, not Canadian. Plus, I still have a raging crush on Tony Amonte.
*Getzlaf
looks like a skirmish in the Battle of Alberta there eh?
There should be an NHL draft category for looks. It only takes a few lookers to keep women occupied. Those teen girls who follow Crosby are happy to sigh at him simultanously by the thousands. Pittsburgh is lucky to have had so many good looking stars. Lemieux and Jagr both had good looks IMO although Jagr was a grade A jerk.
Henrik Lundqvist is certainly good looking and right at the moment I wish the Pens would trade Fleury for him.
LMAO!! Yeah, but the kids being drafted are so young that at 33 I feel like a dirty old lady!
I think all women recognize a good looking guy and when you quit looking, you’re dead. But I know what you mean. The players don’t really seem like men to me until they get way past draft age.
Hockey players beware. They want your wallet. Nothing more, nothing less.
Years ago, contracting for a company in Maryland, I used to frequent Caps games with an associate from work. We would leave the game and head over to the local bar (Farnsworth’s) and grab a few beers before heading home. At that time, in our mid to late 20s and physically fit, in street clothes, each of us could have been mistaken for hockey players. On the ice? not a chance ;-).
Each time we walked into that bar (the players, themselves frequented the place after games), we were greeted by young ladies sitting at the bar, primping and preening. On virtually every occasion, I would walk up to the bar and a young lady would ask me if I was a hockey player. The little devil on my shoulder was always urging me on, but I always told them ‘no’. Of course, that would quickly end the conversation as they spun back around on their barstools to watch for the next young male to walk through the door.
Hockey players and scandals? You bet. That was during the same general timeframe that Scott Stevens, Dino Cicarelli, Geoff Courtnall and Neil Sheehy were accused of raping a 17-year old girl in a Georgetown bar.
Foreward? Lineament?
Good thing I’m not the editor there. Unemployment_Claims++
Rules, ya know...had to help.
I’m a hockey lover and a woman. Go Wings!
I’m not sure of the particular participants in that photo, but there are some good videos on that website. I always enjoy a good, clean, well-contested skirmish, especially late season, playoffs, or round 2 types (i.e. Probert v. Domi).
Thanks for my new computer screen backround!
She scores!!
The loudest fans at the Hershey Bears games are the women!
Unfortunately for them, Crosby wouldn't be interested. I doubt girls are his chosen demographic...
And I enjoy women who enjoy hockey!
Oddly enough, Jaromir Jagr was actually among the top ten on both lists.
I just heard that!!! ESPN 24/7 in our house...but do we need a Priest...the Pens po’d Satan!!!
7th place in the playoff race...making their move:)
