Congratulations,they did it!

I really liked this one! The whole beginning with George McPhee's machinations to ensure that Caps got "the Swede" was just delightful.

Germany-Latvia has been pretty fun so far. Also, there's a player called Kink.

Re: Olympic qualification tournaments

[(Anonymous)]

Should be a good third too, with there only being one goal in it now.

(A comedy fic where Kink is really vanilla and confused by people reacting to his name?)

Slovenia takes it in the shootout!

I really liked this one. There's a fun voice for Alex and the werewolf-y details are great, it deals with an era of Caps history you don't see written very much, and it sold me on the Sasha/Alex relationship. The little old lady neighbor was fun, too, and I liked the Nicky-Ovi friendship and how the Staals/Semin's new teams were worked in.

FUCK YEAH GERMANY!!!!!!

Re: Olympic qualification tournaments

And Germany win the hard-fought contest! No Kink-shaming today.

Congratulations!

I wonder if Kink knows what his name means. I mean, he has to? (I always wonder the same about that ski jumper named Wank lol)

Re: Olympic qualification tournaments

[(Anonymous)]

if he's german he'll definitely know the word 'kinky', at least.

Re: World Cup of Hockey

Is Team North America really planning to make McDavid captain? Because that's some bullshit if they do.

Re: World Cup of Hockey

[(Anonymous)]

"But he's the best player!! And it's the same coach!!"

I'm going to be so pissed.

Re: World Cup of Hockey

[(Anonymous)]

I assume the captain will be one of the older players. Like Nuge or Couturier. It would make so much more sense than McDavid.

Re: World Cup of Hockey

[(Anonymous)]

Has it been made official or is this just a well-sourced rumor?

My money is still on Saad or RNH.

Re: World Cup of Hockey

[(Anonymous)]

Practice for when the oilers make him captain, I guess.

Oshie/Carlson, ~2k

The description of Oshie going inhuman at the end makes me want more monster!Oshie stories now. He really does have unnaturally large eyeballs.

In which Nicky runs a hockey-themed, very popular YouTube channel. I loved how much detail there was, including references to RL social media shenanigans with the players, and how different Caps players past and present fit into the AU.

I already scrapped two of my drafts for the rarepair exchange, suddenly putting words together seems impossible.

Let's hope idea number 3 has some staying power... :/

Re: World Cup of Hockey

[(Anonymous)]

He's not provably the best player, even. He wasn't the best player on Team Canada at Worlds. And a lot of guys on that team have been captains at the international level, some multiple times, but the GM and coach are his, so....

Re: Writing Thread

[(Anonymous)]

Third time lucky, anon. Hopefully, this is the one!

Re: World Cup of Hockey

[(Anonymous)]

Who would you have over him for best player? Actual question. I tend to fall into the "he is probably the best, and he will be the best, but he has to actually do it first."

Oshie/Carlson, 9k, urban fantasy AU with ghosts and werewolves. Oshie interacting with a ghost child who just wants his autograph and maybe to possess him a little is pretty much priceless, and I liked the team interactions as well.
