News Article: Colorado Avalanche Media Coverage Part VI

[Balthazar]

Yea Buffalo is really easy to cheer for.

 

[AllAboutAvs]

The Blues at the bottom of both lists tells you all you need to know about that fanbase.

 

[Bonzai12]

Why the hate for CBJ? I don’t understand that one. I feel bad for their fans. When have the Jackets been anything but a joke? I always think of CBJ and the Coyotes in the same boat - very sorry excuses for an NHL franchise. But I don’t have any animosity towards their fanbase.

I don't know if that's "hate" so much as apathy. I don't think anyone cares much one way or the other about the Jackets and the people in the Nationwide Arena stands. They're likely just at the bottom of this poll because very few even think about Lumbus--they've been out of the postseason picture since around October.

Well there ya go

Dallas though? Shaddap.

I've a close friend in Dallas and he says that locally they are almost not covered at all. Sport coverage is all Cowboys and what's left (not much) is split between the Rangers and the Mavs.

Oh well I could see that. The Stars don't even have their own radio guy. They just simulcast the TV coverage on both, which is IMO total cheapskate garbage.

Never should've moved the team!

[Ceremony]

Buffalo are one of those teams I forget exists until we play them.

 

[Pokecheque]

Uh...what? I didn't even think people really had a "boss" when it came to running one of these "Hockey Now" branches.

[Metallo]

I guess he ran a franchise but had to report.

 

[Pokecheque]

Well all righty then!

 

[Bill Peckerskull]

Hard when you can't report from your living room, the elevator, or while driving folks around via lyft

 

[John Mandalorian]

So he's done with hockey coverage then? This is how it ends?

He should lean into his reputation of always being late, and do a version of Last Week Tonight, but for the Avs, where broken heating in a Winnipeg AirBnb, or being stuck in an elevator, or having to do extra shifts as a Lyft driver do not get in the way of his reporting on Avs news. If you're going to be late, might as well just do round-up style news.

Avs Week, Tonight with John Oliver Adrian Dater.

Seemingly



The multiple quote tweets of praise is a bit unedifying but I'm not reading them

 

[Balthazar]

Only thing I can see was that he was under pressure to put up more content. It's pretty clear at this point that Dater can't have a boss.

You mean he hasn't exhausted all his possible inspiration?

[MonsterMack]

Lol I knew it

 

[SaltySkywalker]

Nah.

 

[SirLoinOfCloth]

I find it weird how he approaches this everything. If you want to move to Substack, or Nutsack, or Buttcrack whatever, don't ask your followers if they will follow. Just go, and if your content is good enough they will follow you. What is he really expecting as a response? "Nah, sorry Dater, Substack is shit, use Medium or Patreon instead" ? Just do what you want, and entice your readers over to the new platform. Pick a platform, and go. What's next, asking his followers what clothes he should wear?
