Nate locker room shots from 2026 Stanley Cup Playoffs Round 1

[loverboyilya]

🍀📝: which avs players would make great podcasters? Like 2 or 3 avs hosting a podcast together.

🍀- one that haunts me is gabe wearing the same (UNWASHED!!) pair of suit socks during the ‘22 cup run

📝- ooo that’s such a good question! definitely wedgie and since they spend a lot of time talking/together, mackie and let’s throw in pk for good measure 🙂‍↕️ i feel like they’d be a fun trio!

[willgrahamscock]

I love seeing my mutuals in my notes because it confirms they’re not mad at me. yet

👅👅👅

[loverboyilya]

just remembered this article about intense babie nate 🥺

[loverboyilya]

🤓🩵👯‍♀️

🤓- when nate was a kid, his dad made him a personalized hockey card and on the back, nate wrote “I want to play for the Halifax Mooseheads, then I want to get drafted by Colorado and play with Joe Sakic” KING OF MANIFESTING FR

🩵- if i could meet any player, i’d say wedgie and/or pk for sure! i feel like wedgie would be super fun and easy to talk to. landy would be amazing too and i’d actually love to meet nate but depends on circumstances (i have met and talked to t-bear and he was absolutely lovely)

👯- i said nate/gabe earlier but i’ll also throw in marty/gabe! i feel like they’re an underrated duo and i love how comfortable they are with each other 🫶

[loverboyilya]

📹 and 🤓

📹- ooo there’s lots, but everyone doing the fate of ophelia dance!! (avsmin you wanna post it sooo bad) i’d also love to see a bit more of the locker room post cup win!

🤓- bc i learned this recently: landy has a twin sister 👩🏼

AVSMIN STOP EDGING US

That’s THREE Cale posts in a row now

hiii! I don't know if you take random requests for your adorable drawings, but if you do, I just have an idea of Sid and Nate finally relaxing at their lake during the summer break (but considering Nate's nickname is the dogg, maybe it would be fitting for him to be one? 😅)

anyway, your drawings bring a lot of joy, thank you for that 🥰🥰🥰

have a wonderful day

Sorry this took so long! Was hoping we'd get a summer pic this year to reference...

👀- any mild/hot takes?

these are more mild and obvious but hakstol needs to be fired, brock was disappointing in the playoffs, and uhh i don’t think mikko was blameless with how everything went down 🫣 (still love him tho)

[loverboyilya]

for the avsk game: 🩶👯🏒 (i am on desktop version but hopefully the emojis shows up correctly!)

🩶- ok this is mostly just for funsies but sid bc i think nate would cease to compute and we don’t normally get to see them play together a lot. i also think macklin would be fun bc i loved him and nate on a line together and also their relationship 🥺 + the avs need more babies so someone like connor bedard could be interesting too

👯- oof this is tough, but 2992 are soo beloved and special to me, the way they’re linked and the heart and soul of the avs

🏒- answered here

[loverboyilya]

🏒- how did you become an avs fan?

hiii <3 ty for the ask!

partly due to nate and partly bc they’re my home team 🥰 when i first got into hockey, i instantly became fascinated by nate so i started looking into the team and fell in love!

some nate things from the guerilla off ice podcast 7/20 episode:

(the first bit is something another player told jesse off the record so he didn’t name names)
