"You know, I have a lot of hobbies, and I've been watching shit since the injury that I never knew I'd be watching. I've got interests... I've got interests outside of the game, other sports: College Football, NFL, whatever. I am addicted, addicted to the Darts PDC World Championship.
My Wingman of the Week: Luke Littler. Luke the Nuke. I don't know what song he comes [out] to? I think if somebody can show him, I think it's Titanium? ("I'm bulletproof~! Nothing to lose~!") And he's just, like, standin' up there like the beast he is, and then he walks down. And I like him because he's, kinda... he's, kinda, turnin' into the heel. The heel of darts! Like, he's... like, the fans love him, but they hate him, and he's like... he's just the fucking best! But he was gettin' booed, and he's like—in his accent, he's like, 'They're booing! They pay my winnings! The Championship winnings!' Like, he's... he's fucked! And he's unreal ("That's the best.") and I watched, um... I made... I made Ellie and Taryn—they're actually at the house after the Winter Classic—we sat down and we watched him in the Finals, and he put on a fucking clinic. '108! 108!'"
"'I love—I love that! 100—' The signs in the back, and people goin' nuts in their costumes. Like, the fun—("Bar— I... I...") the most fun thing!"
"So... so, Barky got me into darts. Um, we have a dart board at the rink* that we play, like, against each other—not me and him**—but, like, the whole team plays against each other, like, everyday. It's, like, mandatory before you go on the ice, it's 'Who you playin' against?' Um, theres some... there's some good games. There's some... there's some... pretty intense games there, but, um... nobody really watches it, but Cap watches it, and he had it on his phone, and I'm like, 'Let's get in on the TV!' So we started watching darts, and that... and that energy in the building looks ("Insane!") electric! Like, it looks like the most fun ever. There's pictures of beer everywhere. There's 180 signs. There's kids, like, all over the place. Luke the Nuke just chuckin' 180, givin' like a... (mimes fist pump) this one, lookin' at his, like, family. It was fuckin' unbelievable.
But Luke the Nuke is my Wingman of the Week. I don't know when I'm gonna be able to go to a Darts World Championship 'cuz I wanna play hockey until I can't move anymore, but maybe when I'm 50—("And, hey! Th... Th... There's... There's some at... There's some at New York 'cuz Anthony... Anthony goes to 'em in New York.") Maybe when I'm 50 years old I'll throw a dart."
"And... ("No way.") Yeah, they have, like, these picnic tables that you can buy, and so it's, like, 80 of your buddies. You just dress up, just like a back. ("Crushed!") Like, they sent me videos of 'em... like, out of control. Unbelievably fun, it looks like. So, it's—I think he goes every year, so, hey! If it works out..."
"Well, Luke... Luke the Nuke... Luke the Nuke, I'll do a jersey swap with ya. I... I don't care. Whatever it takes. Uh... you're my Wingman of the Week, buddy."
*RE:"We have [a dart board] in the locker room (FLA Live Arena). We set it up for this year (2023.)" //"We haven't set [the dart board] up yet in our locker room (IcePlex), but it's there, it's waiting (2024.)"
**RE:"Best at darts? Barky. He's not allowed to play. Yeah, we don't play with him anymore [...] The second I saw him throw darts, I go, 'I'll never play against you again.'" / "I have played a couple games against [Barkov] in darts and it didn't go too well, so... if there was ever money on the line I wouldn't be playing against Barky." / "Yeah, I should miss the board once in a while to let them know I'm play-able."
911 operator: 911 what is your emergency?
me: yes, hello, why am i watching “the first avenger” again as if it doesn’t consistently hurt me?
remember when harry used to dress like a grandpa when he was seventeen with all his grandaddy blazers and jumpers over shirts and before that when he was sixteen he was clinging on to what's left of his youth a.k.a. sweats with his lavender supras now it's just like he found the right balance between grandpa and casual and it physically pains me how this kid got his personal style down quicker than any other eighteen year old teenager boy out there
