#nhl edit

[youcouldvebeentheone]

okay so two things inspired this:

like a year and a half ago i had an hour long conversation with @novascotiamafias (right before a final) discussing comparing nhl players to greek mythology

THEN like a week ago @crosbyism posted about them and had orpheus and eurydice in the tags and i have not stopped thinking about it for days.

nate would not just turn around for sid. nate would turn around and run backwards for sid. sid wouldn’t just follow nate out of hell. sid would follow him through hell and back.

so this did start with the intentions of being a marcheron edit but then it felt too angsty for them so it became this instead 🤩 life hack: if you have to make your avs fan friend swear that she won’t kill you before you send her an edit, that’s how you know it’s a really good edit.

anywho, here’s a good old fashioned natemikko angst edit for your thursday

he is so important to me and genuinely does not get enough credit for what he has accomplished on and off the ice

- triple gold club

- stanley cup winning goal

- iihf 2005 juniors mvp

- 2016 world cup of hockey

- two time Olympic gold medalist

- top three in faceoff percentage in the last 20 years

- started an organization to help underprivileged kids see hockey games when he was 20

- SIX TIME SELKE WINNER

- hot wife

- also married to brad marchand

there’s probably more this is just off the top of my head

for once in his life, can he have something without having to give everything for it. for once, can he be loved genuinely by the media for who he is. for once, can it be him and not someone else getting all the accolades.
