pucking rare: former teammates (part one)
Taylor Hall/Connor McDavid
how inconvinient (to be made of desire) by doppler
“We’re going to take over this city,” Connor had mumbled, lips pressed just above Taylor’s pulse point, making Taylor’s nerves feel on fire, in a night that Taylor could easily deem the beginning of the end of his stay in Edmonton, if he was going to.
And if Taylor had been smart enough to blame it on Connor’s fucked-out brain, if he hadn’t let Connor’s words cut through his heart, and nest right inside of it, then he would’ve never been sitting here, with the sun hitting his shirtless back as he read over the news of his trade, fully resigned.
Nail Yakupov/Alex Galchenyuk
A Million Ways To Think About You by sunshinexbomb
“Anna thinks what?”
Alex bites his lip. “Well, not us specifically. But she thinks I’m dating someone. And I told her I wasn’t, but you know what Anna’s like - once she has an idea in her head she refuses to believe anything else. And she thinks the person I’m bringing to the wedding is going to be my boyfriend, and I’m sure she’s told our parents as much already.”
“So you need me to what? Pretend to be your boyfriend for the weekend?”
“I guess?” Alex shrugs.
--
Or Nail pretends to be Alex's date for a wedding, and Alex realizes that maybe he doesn't want it all to just be pretend after all.
Jack Eichel/Noah Hanifin
to be something second guessed by snakebitehearts
Jack's never liked Noah Hanifin.
or, how baseball and boston bring people together.
Corey Crawford/Trevor van Riemsdyk
Second Chances by AbschaumNo1
As nice as it is to have so many Ex-Hawks around he already knows, Trevor can’t help but think that it would be easier if he didn’t have the constant reminder of what he doesn’t have anymore.
William Karlsson/Alexander Wennberg
hope underneath the grey sky by yeswayappianway
“Uh, hi,” an unfamiliar voice says, and that's when Alex finally opens his eyes. It’s Will’s name on the screen, but that’s definitely not his voice. Alex holds the phone back to his ear and catches, "…yeah, sorry for calling you.”
Alex sighs. “What happened to him?”
“He, um... He turned into a snake? We think?” the voice says tentatively.
Mathew Barzal/Thomas Chabot
The 12 Hookups of Mat Barzal, and the One That Wasn’t Just a Hookup by Mooresomore
he’d heard about Mat’s “reputation” for hooking up with teammates at international tournaments. (Not that Mat was ashamed or anything; he was pretty sure everyone knew how “slutty” he’d been at prior tournaments; he just didn’t think it was something to poke fun at.)
Tukka Rask/Tyler Seguin
Dog daddy comes to town by caixa
Tuukka Rask comes home from Tampa.
Auston Matthews/Charlie McAvoy

(Or: Auston burns bright. Charlie doesn't wear sunscreen.)
Chance Braid/Leon Draisaitl
You know I’ll be there, right by your side (If it wasn’t for these state lines) by Mooresomore
Chance decided after practice he’d go up and introduce himself- he was all about maintaining team chemistry after all. Plus, the poor guy probably didn’t know anyone here and probably could use a friend.
“Hey. The name’s Chance, but most everyone calls me Braids or Braider,” Chance said in the locker room.
“Leon. Leon Draisaitl.” There was a thick accent that Chance couldn’t quite place; as if reading Chance’s mind, Leon followed up with, “German.”
Valterri Filppula/Brayden Point
All the Better to Bite You With by Lecavayay
Val's friends are fucking idiots.
PUCKING RARE MASTERLIST
i only just noticed leon’s comment :’) (xxx)
some Leon tbts
leon and chance being sOFT (xx/xx)
Rolling along with these! This request only asked for Draisaitl, so I wasn’t sure exactly how to roll with it, whether the anon wanted him with another player, or with like a /reader type deal, but when I saw the prompt my very first thought was when he won the WHL championship with Kelowna, and his bromance buddy back then, Chance Braid. (here’s a super cute photo of them from Leon’s Insta)
prompt #19: things you said when we were the happiest we ever were
Leon Draisaitl/Chance Braid
The ice is absolute chaos in the moments after the final horn blares. Sticks and gloves and helmets are scattered, Leon has teammates who are crying, teammates who are shouting, teammates tripping all over just trying to hug each other. The noise around him is just white fuzz, he can’t make out anything distinct, just the cacophony of celebration.
“Drai!!! Get your ass over here!”
If anyone could get his attention over the din, it was Chance. It was always Chance.
Chance launched himself at Leon, tackling him down to the ice, hugging him hard and laughing excitedly, the smile taking over his entire face. “Look at you, you’re a fuckin’ WHL champion!”
“So are YOU,” Leon shook him in response, chuckling right back at him. They were tangled up against each other, Chance a heavy weight on top of him, while a hurricane of their teammates skated around them, unconcerned.
“I’m so glad we did this together,” Chance has his hands braced on the ice on either side of Leon’s head.
“This is ours,” Leon said before his brain could catch up to his mouth. “No one can take this from us.”
Chance beamed and leaned down to press a smacking kiss to Leon’s cheek. “Forever, Drai. This is our moment.”
Leon turned his head at the last moment to brush his lips at the corner of Chance’s mouth. When Chance looked at him this time, there was shock in his eyes.
But he was still smiling.
“Ich liebe dich.”
Chance’s grin went even wider.
“I love you too, you fuckin’ nerd.”
No one even saw them kiss the second time.
