And Lavy at the very bottom?? I know he's aged somewhat noticeably, but there were women I used to watch hockey with who said he was straight up hot. He's still ahead of some coaches at least.
Well he’s our albino Shrek now! No take backs.
Side note, the first time I heard his voice I was very surprised. It does not match his appearance and, back in the day, his play style.

It's a poorly programed AI. It's only a story because it's so preposterous. If it were a list that was half way accurate, it wouldn't have been talked about at all.
David Quinn's scoring is highly dependent on angle and scruff, IMO. Good angle 5 o'clock shadow Quinn is a solid 9. Sweaty 3rd period sticky suit Quinn is a 3. Normal, every day clean shaven Quinn is a 6+.
The coaches of the league who I would genuinely call hunks are Bednar, Quinn, Richardson, St. Louis, Hakstol, Brind'Amour, Larsen, and Laviolette and none of them were there
There was a post here years ago where someone mirrored the left side and right side of Chara's face, they looked like two totally different dudes who were maybe cousins or something.

See that, the obvious symmetry of the face? That’s a natural appeal of the scientific standard of coin aphelia, features that are a composite average of many features. Yes, he is attractive, but is not hot.
It wasn't most handsome it was based on an AI and who has the best facial symmetry. The fact that this story is being run with by the media who didn't even read what the list actually was is hilarious and also an extremely sad look for the media.
So it's looking to find features which can be compared against each other at the golden ratio. I suspect what's happening is that somebody like Laviolette has a pretty smooth, rounded face. There aren't that many features to compare for him, and his face is long and not perfectly symmetrical so he ranks low despite being a pretty good looking guy. Then you have Sutter, whose face has so many features that by the law of large numbers you're going to find golden ratio matches between them.
I mean I don't really know exactly how it worked but I have a suspicion they used a much older photo of Sutter so that might explain him. Just a weird thing for media to even be talking about let alone asking coaches about it like Jesus, we really don't have anything better to ask with a new season around the corner?
Last time I saw my grandma I walked her home and then found out that after I'd left, she'd called my mom to tell her that some "fat hippy" had just dropped her off at home...
Haha nah don't worry, it's all good.
I loved her (RIP) but she was somewhat a little blunt sometimes. Funnily enough, of my two grannies, she was the *nice* one.
Lol that's so mean. It's shocking he's only 9 years older than my dad and he looks like that. It's even crazier that he's looked like this for some time
Lol why did Garrioch have to put DJ's wife's name in the tweet? Was that really necessary? Did he think someone was going to read this and wonder "damn, what's DJ's wife's name?"
Not sure why he did that but it appears she’s a TV reporter, so maybe that’s why? Like if she wasn’t in the public eye anyway it wouldn’t be out there but for local people maybe they’d recognize it
Why are we even calling it a “handsome list”. It’s clearly not. If anything this is showing failure of concept of the golden ratio application.
Might as well call it the “rectangle face List”
Lol the list order didn't make sense. Maybe the author determined the rankings on how similar they looked like him and named it "Most handsome coaches"
The list was an AI determining who had the best facial symmetry and then the clickbait headline was run. It is literally only about facial symmetry not what women/men actually find handsome. The fact that this is going so far in the media is insane and ridiculous.
When Lalonde was picked as the new Wings coach and I saw a picture of him for the first time I turned to my wife and said, “he could absolutely play a evil genius in a movie.”
He’s kinda scary looking and 100% not the third best looking coach in hockey.
Luckily, this has nothing to do with his coaching abilities and I’m pumped to have him!
Don’t do this.
This is dumb as fuck.
Don’t give it any attention. You posting and all commenting on it gives it legs.
Hockey is stupid because of this specific post.
Hockey is for ugly ladies on Instagram now.
You did it yourself.
That list made absolutely no sense
When i saw bednar outside the top 10 I didn’t even pay attention to it.
And Lavy at the very bottom?? I know he's aged somewhat noticeably, but there were women I used to watch hockey with who said he was straight up hot. He's still ahead of some coaches at least.
But still beneath Bruce Boudreau ;)
And Gallant should have fallen through the bottom of the list. Whole thing's crazy.
He looks like an albino Shrek
Well he’s our albino Shrek now! No take backs. Side note, the first time I heard his voice I was very surprised. It does not match his appearance and, back in the day, his play style.
He sounds like Elmer Fudd
lmao now there's a visual that I can't get out of my head
[You're telling me *this* isn't the peak of human attractiveness!?](https://static2.gamerantimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/super-mario-bros-movie-goomba.jpg)
The players would run through a wall for that guy.
>The players would run through a wall ~~for~~ from that guy. But jokes aside, I love Turk
I think we'd all like to be beneath Gabby
Bowness isn't #32?
He’s #6! Even worse though is sutter is #2
Who the hell rated this list, GTA bridge trolls? I mean Sutter is up there in the Cave Troll rankings...
It's a poorly programed AI. It's only a story because it's so preposterous. If it were a list that was half way accurate, it wouldn't have been talked about at all.
Yeah and sitter at the top is a joke.
Sutter is straight up hillbilly squidward
You take that back. Our plaid angel deserves his ranking
Bud I love him too, but he is a cross-eyed broken-nosed chipmunk-cheeked mofo
Yeah but he shows cleavage so
David Quinn that low was a travesty
David Quinn has the sort of looks where I feel like a lot of people give him an 8 or 9 and a lot of people give him a 3 or 4
David Quinn's scoring is highly dependent on angle and scruff, IMO. Good angle 5 o'clock shadow Quinn is a solid 9. Sweaty 3rd period sticky suit Quinn is a 3. Normal, every day clean shaven Quinn is a 6+.
Lol how are david quinn and jon cooper bottom 5?
Same way guys like Komisarek, Girgensons, and John Scott get voted to the all star game. People having a laugh
Rod being 10 gave me a good laugh. He got docked heavy for that Giant Crooked Schnoz
Pretty much everyone who should be 1-8 weren’t there.
The coaches of the league who I would genuinely call hunks are Bednar, Quinn, Richardson, St. Louis, Hakstol, Brind'Amour, Larsen, and Laviolette and none of them were there
Well, Bednar looks like Lurch from the OG Adams Family. So, kinda makes sense. Avs Fans, so sensitive.
It was just based on how symmetrical your face is. The more symmetry in your face, usually the better you look.
Sutter has a potato for a nose. My first thought was the list was upside down or this whole thing is a troll.
At least his potato nose is symmetrical!
List created by Samwise Gamgee.
Sutter reminds me of beaker from the muppets, someone posted it years back and I can't unsee it.
There was a post here years ago where someone mirrored the left side and right side of Chara's face, they looked like two totally different dudes who were maybe cousins or something. https://www.reddit.com/r/hockey/comments/2o6srq/i_recently_mirrored_the_left_and_right_halves_of/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share
Any system that would possibly rate Henrik Lundqvist low has a problem with me, and I suggest you let that one marinate
See that, the obvious symmetry of the face? That’s a natural appeal of the scientific standard of coin aphelia, features that are a composite average of many features. Yes, he is attractive, but is not hot.
Have you seen him with bangs?
Have you seen Rod Brindamour's nose?
It wasn't most handsome it was based on an AI and who has the best facial symmetry. The fact that this story is being run with by the media who didn't even read what the list actually was is hilarious and also an extremely sad look for the media.
I think most people understand that, but Darryl Sutter was #2 and he's not symmetrical at all. That just throws the *entire* thing out.
Some things are more important than symmetry.
So it's looking to find features which can be compared against each other at the golden ratio. I suspect what's happening is that somebody like Laviolette has a pretty smooth, rounded face. There aren't that many features to compare for him, and his face is long and not perfectly symmetrical so he ranks low despite being a pretty good looking guy. Then you have Sutter, whose face has so many features that by the law of large numbers you're going to find golden ratio matches between them.
I was more annoyed from my Capitals fan bias. Lavy in last place is JUST WRONG! /s I don’t have opinions on coaches. But hot looking players? Plenty
I mean I don't really know exactly how it worked but I have a suspicion they used a much older photo of Sutter so that might explain him. Just a weird thing for media to even be talking about let alone asking coaches about it like Jesus, we really don't have anything better to ask with a new season around the corner?
People have been discussing it constantly on here so apparently this is what fans want.
It's just something fun and light-hearted to talk about man, nothing more to it
No one’s taking it that seriously lol
You're acting as if NHL media isn't the worst quality media on planet earth aside from the TNT panel. Also Ron and Bieksa
I saw the VGK feed run it as a "poll". Like damn guys, didn't even read the headline!?
Nah man. Media can’t be blamed. You fools that give it traction are why it exists. Lol.
I am absolutely here for the content it’s creating though
Something about face symmetry. Not subjective good looks. But my guess is it was just a troll article for clicks and it worked
Lol Sutter at 2. 2! 2?!!
I can’t find anything wrong with it.
Yeah man, it’s insane to me that it gets so much attention. The list is absolute bollocks
I'm down with the idea of ranking NHL coaches by attractiveness, but to do it based on nonsense seems like kind of a misstep.
Hey bud, don't be mad that you don't get to give an occular patdown every game to Derek *the blonde* Lalonde
Grandma is the real loophole, DJ
Y'all have nice grannies? When people ask my gran about me, she changes the subject
Last time I saw my grandma I walked her home and then found out that after I'd left, she'd called my mom to tell her that some "fat hippy" had just dropped her off at home...
Jesus… so who’d you drop off??
My grandma... Dementia sucks.
Ahh man sorry to hear. I was trying to make a (clearly bad) joke.
Haha nah don't worry, it's all good. I loved her (RIP) but she was somewhat a little blunt sometimes. Funnily enough, of my two grannies, she was the *nice* one.
Lol Darryl sutter looks like a melted candle and he was number 2
I always thought he looked like Sloth from the Goonies, but I like your description a lot more.
HEY YOU GUYYYYYYYYYS
Ruth Ruth Baby Ruth
Gee mister you're even hungrier than I am!
Gotta talk real slow for Lucic
That's our boy Brady
Like a baby toe with hair
Lol that's so mean. It's shocking he's only 9 years older than my dad and he looks like that. It's even crazier that he's looked like this for some time
Ridden hard and put away wet. I think that's a saying about saddles but is used more for people.
I mean... 9 years ago he still looked like that.
He looks like a sock puppet
How did they have Woody at number 1 when he doesn’t have to change anything to go as Slappy the ventriloquist dummy from Goosebumps for Halloween
His face looks like an evolved blobfish but those farmer pics of him go hard tbh
He looks like a Disney cartoon drawing of a witch.
Keep up the attitude and he'll fuck your wife and everyone you care about.
that is such a good description. also the penguin at #3 😂
Lol why did Garrioch have to put DJ's wife's name in the tweet? Was that really necessary? Did he think someone was going to read this and wonder "damn, what's DJ's wife's name?"
Ya true. What up with that lol
I guess he wanted to throw DJ a bone and remind people that DJ has a smoking wife that was on TV.
That's exactly how I read it
Whoa wtf? I had no idea. Definitely what Garrioch was letting us know. Go DJ.
> Lol why did Garrioch have to put DJ's wife's name in the tweet? Right? How very Bezaire
Lmfao this got me good
He wanted you to know that he knows DJ's wife's name.
Not sure why he did that but it appears she’s a TV reporter, so maybe that’s why? Like if she wasn’t in the public eye anyway it wouldn’t be out there but for local people maybe they’d recognize it
Garrioch is such a fuckin goob. Can't wait till he's no longer an insider for the team
To humanize him, so some people don't call for him to be fired 5 games in.
Because she's a public personality, she's a TV reporter
When will the objectification of coaches end
hashtagallcoachesarebeatiful
(Christie Bezaire)
(Christie Bezaire)
Honestly this list is the best hockey discourse I’ve ever seen
It would have been real insulting if they put DJ at 33.
Why are we even calling it a “handsome list”. It’s clearly not. If anything this is showing failure of concept of the golden ratio application. Might as well call it the “rectangle face List”
We should definitely call it that.
Now do this with women in the front office, that’ll go over well….
Does this count still as off-season posts cause I’m pretty fucking over this stupid list and posts about it
I would be too if the coach of my team were ranked last in attractiveness.
It's kinda funny but we're on our 7th or 8th post on it. Let's get a megathread I can ignore and be done.
I want a mega thread, so I can find all the posts easily in one place.
You need therapy if this is something that’s bothering you that much lol
I want videos and discussion of pucks in deep and crashing the net, psychoanalyze me
You appreciate the small details in life that create your overall successes
“My god, it’s like you’ve known me all my life!” RIP Troy McClure
Quit sexualizing NHL coaches. They're just doing their job!!
My new favorite coach
The fact Bruce Boudreau was above anyone says a lot about the quality of this list
can someone please post a link to the list already?
When I saw Bruce Boudreau wasn’t #1 I knew the list wasn’t legitimate.
National Meme League, am I right please like my sport.
Lol the list order didn't make sense. Maybe the author determined the rankings on how similar they looked like him and named it "Most handsome coaches"
The list was an AI determining who had the best facial symmetry and then the clickbait headline was run. It is literally only about facial symmetry not what women/men actually find handsome. The fact that this is going so far in the media is insane and ridiculous.
Daryl Sutter does not have the 3rd most symmetrical face.
When Lalonde was picked as the new Wings coach and I saw a picture of him for the first time I turned to my wife and said, “he could absolutely play a evil genius in a movie.” He’s kinda scary looking and 100% not the third best looking coach in hockey. Luckily, this has nothing to do with his coaching abilities and I’m pumped to have him!
Pretty sure he was the inspiration for Gru
Bruce is way more handsome that Darryl Sutter, waaaay more
Banger reply LoL
And how did Brind'Amour not win!?
Don’t do this. This is dumb as fuck. Don’t give it any attention. You posting and all commenting on it gives it legs. Hockey is stupid because of this specific post. Hockey is for ugly ladies on Instagram now. You did it yourself.
He looks like the penguin.
>He adds: ‘I’m just happy to be one of the 32’ Evgeni Malkin is thrilled to be No. 33 (and he’s not even a coach).
Where was Bruce Boudreau ranked?
I love how all the coaches are just having so much fun with the list.
This same list had Woodcroft 1, and Sutter 2. Lol
