i’m so tired of being told that what female fans want in men’s sports is more fashion and champagne and over the top displays of wealth and wag content when really what women want is, like, a sport where the managers and players and marketers and male fans aren’t raging misogynists
Resurrecting my tumblr because PWHL Reddit said PWHLblr was the place to be.
I’ve been working on these tarot card (ish) designs over the last few months. I gotta get it together and finish up with Vancouver and Minnesota before the new teams announce their names/logos 💀
what they dont tell you is that if you're a hockey fan for a long enough time you start feeling insane about the new wave of fans who don't know Anything. not in a hockey sense, but in a fandom sense
I don't read as much fic as I used to but one "tell" for non Canadians writing us, besides the etransfer, is the units you use to describe us measuring something. I hate to tell you this but The Chart is real and it's completely subconscious. Please abide
hello bracketeers! it is a wonderful thursday on several levels. for one, it’s my birthday. for two, my hockey team won and is moving on to the western conference finals!
congratulations to the colorado avalanche for finishing off the minnesota wild, and what a game. coming from losing 3-0 in the first period to two goals within a minute in the third to send it to overtime. depth players were critical, but nothing beats a clutch moment from nathan mackinnon. man, i really do love hockey sometimes.
anyway… commentary under the cut as usual.

so many people not realising that there's a bonded pair on the ottawa charge??? like cava and greco had to be practically traded there together. I fear we are losing the not even ancient texts.
