Tuukka Rakas

23-year-old Finnish hockey fan. Boston Bruins. Carolina Hurricanes. Philadelphia Flyers. Team Finland. HIFK Helsinki. Mikko Koivu's my favorite player, so I also know too much about the Minnesota Wild. Graphics are a hobby of mine, so any photoset/gif requests are welcome and I'll see what I can do for you.

Summer Project 2014- NHL Players as Fictional Characters

Part 1/x Valtteri Filppula (Tampa Bay Lightning)- Legolas Greenleaf (Lord of the Rings)

So, this is going to be my summer project for this year: Send me a name of an NHL player, a fictional character he reminds you of and a quote/description you think fits the comparison and I will make you a graphic. First come- first serve, no doubles.

when you hear someone talking shit about your favourite player

[tuukkarakas]

Hello you beautiful human. Once you get this, you must publicly say five things about yourself, then pass it on to 10 of your favourite followers. Not back to me. <3

1. I want to punch someone because the essay I'm working on needs quotes from articles I can't access from my house, you can only read them in the campus library.

2. My dog is an idiot, but he's still cute.

3. My husband's an even bigger idiot but cuter too.

4. Our neighbors own the ugliest cat in the Northern hemisphere. It has no hair.

5. My philosophy professor is cool because most of the metaphors he uses are hockey-related.

Cam Ward says to hell with your scoring chances

do you think mikko is still injured? he looks like he's having a hard time skating sometimes...

Making quick turns on skates is what looks the most awkward to me. He needs a wide arc to turn 180 degrees. With an ankle that's been broken recently it can hurt to turn like that and the ankle can feel stiff. He'll be okay though, he's a fighter, so don't worry too much ;)

Halusin vaan sanoa, että sulla on paras blogin nimi ikinä. Joo. Ei mulla muuta.

Kiitos :)
