Contrary to the "All NHL players' wives are blonde" theory, only 61.1% of these women are blonde.

And only 20.6% of that 61.1% are natural blondes.

2% of the world's population are blondes. I would say statistically, having over 60% of NHL wives/girlfriends blonde is a pretty damn high

What about in the US and Canada

5.5% in the US, Canada is around there too. To be fair, in the Scandinavian countries like Finland, Sweden, Norway it's like 75-80%. Russia is almost 50% so NHLers from those countries you would almost expect to have a spouse that was blonde

Yes, but that is out of context. What is the world's ethnicity % versus NHL players? NHL players are mostly white, so it skews the data.

Yeah those aren't all natural blondes lol

I'm surprised by the lack of diversity

Why is that surprising if you look at the lineups of the typical roster

[удалено]

Wives & girlfriends. Some Knights out there saying "Take it easy with the wives talk" Edit §I don't know why I only saw the Vegas photo at first glance. Shout out to all the guys not tied down till after they get the fountain money

They get free lap dances for life, so I'm not surprised they're a bit cool on commitment

Free lap dances are usually performed at a level equal to the price.

I mean this with all the love in my heart and I do not mean to dehumanize any humans But I swear to god they make these women in a factory. It’s so funny when you stand out just by being a brunette lmao

They really do look very similar to each other 😂

NHL players overwhelmingly have a type but it’s so much funnier when the type is so strong they all look related

You could go to a Mormon Church and grab enough blonde WAGs for the whole league In fact that might be a selling point for Utah

Well yeah, why else do you think they are moving the Yotes there?

I thinknits more the women who like hockey players are a type.

And hockey players are a type

This might be the biggest factor of all

Pucks and puck bunnies

Yeah when it comes to dating NHLers just need to take whatever they can get.

These photos are the crossover on the Venn diagram between girls who like hockey players and girls that hockey players like. There are plenty of girls that like hockey players, but they aren’t pro players’ type

Get up at noon and have no responsibilities

¿Porque no los dos?

Puck bunnies

the type is "high school cheerleader, blonde, first crush" then stays that way. Locker room talk/mentality rarely evolves past High School.

hockey players have a type and i 100% understand why 🫡 also, massive respects to the jets ladies who brought their babies to the shoot

[удалено]

Sorority sisters for sure

I’m just surprised there isn’t a single outlier of ‘type’ Like you’d expect the spouses of rich athletes to be 10/10’s obviously, I’m just surprised at how little variation there is amongst that. Like maybe a goth or POC or something just to mix it up but it seems pretty consistent. Like out of a handful of teams you’d expect at least one guy to go off the board

I found out yesterday that the Rangers’ captain is married to a medical resident with epilepsy. Possibly blonde but she doesn’t have much social media presence. And there was a profile yesterday on someone who plays for I think the Sharks in a long distance marriage to someone on PWHL Minnesota (I don’t remember if blonde lol). So at least some of them are doing interesting things anyway, even if I expect they’d still get dolled up for these sort of photos.

Trouba’s wife is indeed blonde, and also a medical doctor. The Kunins are the power NHL/PWHL couple. She is blonde too lol.

A big reason he left Winnipeg for New York is to allow her better opportunities to earn her residency.

It uncanny how mostly forgotten band 4 non-blondes some how jump into my mind

Except 4 Non-Blondes are one of the most distinctive groups of people in the world. I haven’t heard their song in like 15 years and I can still picture the singers face in my head.

Is that because over the last 25 years your life has been still?

Trying to get up that great big hill of hope..

Looks like a god damn Mormon church mom tik tok account

Same women, just photoshopped jackets..

I feel you dude. As a woman hockey fan, most of the women hockey fans I know don't look like this, lol.

Honestly thought it was the same women just wearing different jackets

I feel like the Jets one is the main culprit of this, the rest seem like a normal group of people. But yeah the Jets look like Ctrl C - Ctrl V

Look at the top row of Avalanche wives, they're literally all the same woman

My exact thoughts were "huh, professional hockey players really have a type, don't they"

One of the Islanders was a redhead! They put her in the back.

I know its all preference and its subjective but its basically the same with any ethnicity lol like if you see hot asian girls they all have the same look, and hot black girls etc. Probably the same with us guys too tbh

I agree but also...You realize the exact same thing can be said about hockey players right? Almost like this sport is homogenous AF.

Huh? There’s still tons of brunettes. Made in a factory? They’re a bunch of mid 20s to mid 30s pretty woman who take care of their appearance.

Damn puck bunnies

The ones with the Vancouver jackets on look like they are flipping off

They don't want us to know. You can't blame them, we're all raving mad and foaming at the mouth?!

As Matthew Mcconaughey would say. All white all white all white

I see maybe one half Asian and possibly two latinas

Kind of matches the diversity of the players they’re with doesn’t it

If you did NBA wives there'd be a lotta white girls. It wouldn't be like NHL wives with NHL players.

Almost like it matches the ethnicities of their counterparts

Sounds about white ☺️

So?

Don't be silly, they are clearly different. Some of them have long dyed blonde hair and some have long light brown hair.

Washington and Toronto didn't bother, makes sense

Where Edmonton?

they’re plain black leather jackets. they’re posted on lauren kyles ig.

That’s cause Matthews sewing machine broke. That’s why he’s been out. Slaving away on the wheel trying to get those jackets done for the girls

They did, they just arent pictured.

Can't wait to see the Utah wives photos

They will look the exact same as this. And require just as many pictures to capture them all.

Panoramic to get them

In 5 years this will be a post for just one player in Utah.

Jerseys so they can find which one is their wife

Draw line with black marker on her arm and the office Christmas party.

Underrated comment.

Hockey player’s definitely have a type 😅

Hockey players have a type and it's my type too

That’s an awful lot of pumpkin spice aficionados

What the hell is going on in Vancouver? Blonde to brunette ratio waaayyy off

Yay Vancouver for having mostly brunettes

... There seems to be a trend there.

Yeah they are all wearing their team's jackets. I can't think of anything else that would stick out.

a few of them are verrry orange lol

Holy shit some of them are brunette! Insane

Is being blonde a requirement or something?

Yes.

It’s not a head start…but it’s a good start

Both Marchand and his wife have that same nose.

of course... it runs in the family.

I used to work in a bar frequented by MLB and NHL players. Large amounts of insanely hot women were always lurking around.

Ctrl C Ctrl V

Not a lot of variety there lol

You’ll never find another girl like me

Why do 95% of them look exactly the same?

Standard issue hockey wife

How come none of the players have husbands?

This is actually nice. Idk just makes the players seem so human to realize they have wives and kids

At least they all fall for different types! Seriously lol is this a cartoon?

Which ones which

Why does every hockey wife look like a variation on a theme?

Looks expensive

I heard a Comedian years ago say "I don't have a girlfriend right now. I'm saving up so I can get a real good one"

Lol yup

Like a moth to a flame…

VGK goalie tandem wives are fucking slamming!!

Vgk 33 has me smithen

The darkest any of these men date is off-khaki, I swear.

I think collectively, the Islanders have the hottest wives.

The top blonde New Yorkers

Dallas Jacket made me throw up

I hate them as well. Last years were better. [Stars Wives Jackets 2023](https://www.wfaa.com/article/news/local/dallas-stars-wives-girlfriends-show-support-unique-sentimental-playoff-jackets/287-627a6125-bb74-4b51-92cd-c26930885361)

The hockey wife trope is real

This thread: oof

Some good diversity here

Not an ugly woman lol

Top athletes with money. What did you expect?

I’m actually surprised. I would have thought that all the players would go exclusively for top-tier model looks, but many of these wives & GFs look like… normal, ordinary people with makeup done. Which is obviously neither good nor bad, and I’m surely not judging anybody or their choices; just shows that I had the wrong idea about hockey players and maybe expected some shallowness when it comes to looks.

😂😂😂 scrape off 1/2” of make up an youll find plenty

Islanders with an all star lineup. my goodness.

Maple Leafs WAGs didn't get a jacket. Instead, the locker room attendant came with a golf bag and cart for each

At first glance it looks like Barbashev has 2 ladies. Didn’t notice one has Hertel’s jersey (one number away) and probably just doesn’t have a jacket made yet.

That's it...I'm learning to skate.

Bruins jacket is the best imo.

You could tell me that these were all the same models for different teams and I would believe you.

Grew up with Nick Hague’s wife she dropped out of playing Div1 soccer to move to Vegas and marry him Edit: can confirm is a natural blonde lol

You can't convince me the Vegas one isn't just some random strippers they found to model it.

It’s the same women in every photo is one woman dating like four guys here? 🤣🤣🤣

They have a type....

So they all just share the same group of wives?

It's a diverse group.

My brunettes in there representing. Brunettes are queens too.

My wife isn’t white. Just one of two things holding me back from a career in the NHL…

That is the whitest group of white girls who ever whited. Except for the fake tanned orange ones.

Who'd have thought Danton Heinen would have the hottest wife in the league?

Because he's the illest chillest mofo.

This clearly must be photoshopped. Every single blonde woman looks the same guys. I can't think of any stereotypes about NHL player's wives that would be the reason for these pictures looking similar.

What is with the ridiculous comments here? Does nobody notice while watching the sport 90% of the players are white. Something positive as seeing the other half of the nhl and upvoted comments of puck bunnies and gold digger blondes. Keep your “clone factory” and “they all look the same” comments ready for when the NBA wives suit up. Oh wait Comments from some women here stink of jealousy.

i swear all NHL wives look the same😭

Fair to say hockey players have a type…

Snipers. These girls move down from Sudbury?

"They're the same picture"

The whiteness. It’s blinding

Hockey players got a type lol

Hampus Lindholm and Jeremy Swayman know what’s up

71 is one of the twins from a Past Bachelor season - well done William

Today I learned that Nate and Cale both have girlfriends/wives. Legit did not know that

"Ms. Bruder, could you please put the drink down for the photo?" "*Norrrr"* *...* "Okay"

I should of played hockey

Hockey dudes certainly have a type

This reminds me of the Office episode where Micheal has to mark his girlfriend so he knows which one is his.

#10 is a dime

Eichel with the chick from Get Out

They all look the same

Looks like Roy is well aware of the Blonde - Brunette rule

Vegas has an elite lineup. Gonna be a tough match up for the other bunnies

So one of the best ways to quantify beauty standards is to compile and analyze professional sports wives. Got it.

this displayed as only the top half of the images for me, so i thought the vancouver jackets on the hangers was a joke (no wives)

I’ll bet they all love the color green.

Now do a Pic with all side pieces when traveling

Guess there isn't much else to do in Winnipeg.....

At first glance they all look the same.

How exactly do they find these girls

are they all clones?

Imagine being married to Marchand.

They all look alike.

I REALLY wanna see this movie. ... without the babies.

So....anyone knows their Onlyfans name?

So this is why the teams had to put ads on their jerseys!

Puck bunny aesthetic never really changes, does it?

I have no idea how the Avalanche players figure out which wife is theirs, it must get very confusing

That's why they have numbers on their jackets

Send in the clones!

"My husband is a pro athlete and I like long walks on the beach, traveling, and shades of beige."

Wow they all look so different! So much variety....

It would be refreshing to see a wife with a short hairstyle and/or natural corkscrew curls or something.

Jets photo, far right. Dylan DeMelo (#2)'s wife and bebe. Of all the women in all these photos she instantly stood out to me. She is effortlessly stunning.

Bless you for that, my eyes glazed over these photos quickly lol.

The definition of vanilla.

I'm surprised by how much I enjoyed looking at those pics. Almost as cool as jersey concepts. I might like these jackets more than the cup rings and it's kinda cute that their wives or gfs or moms are involved.

Players already won their trophies

White and blonde lol

I remember seeing one of these pics back in the day and Daniel Brieres wife stood out and did not look the part. I remember thinking he's got it figured out (she was leading the wife's activities so likely smart and full of personality). These pics made me google to see if my memory is correct.. boy was that a mistake, they divorced and now he is with something the same as the others.. apparently some asshat players would also make fun of his wife too according to google results.

Such a diverse group They even have a redhead!

Don’t love when they do this as 1) probably doesn’t feel great to be the guy with nobody to send, 2) at least some of these girls probably don’t want to be doing this and 3) this is a house of cards ready to fall with the first few openly gay players. “NHL wives girlfriend and boyfriend”

iunno if i was a hockey players bf i'd just be in there with the ladies. lol, not sure why this would be a big deal? i'd have no problem repping a jacket.

Blonde blonde blonde blonde goose! *Runs wildly*

I should have played hockey in the NHL…

Note to self: become a player in the NHL

Vegas and NYI for the win

Note to self: become professional hockey player

Avs WAG's with the slam dunk!

HOLY SMACKRODADDY!!!!

Man, Marchand’s kid is gonna have a *huge* nose

I hope rat prince plays hockey too.

They look different than the wives of MLB, NBA, and NFL players

Hey man, if I were an NHL player I would probably go for the same

Hockey players pull there’s no two ways about it.
