Huh, weird. I'm on Mystic, and it seems like everyone I know is evenly split between Mystic and Valor.

Weird. I was thinking that he was probably Team Valor, but definitely not Instinct. Because no one is Istinct (except me and my sister), so it would be either be Valor or Mystic, and obviously Valor is a Sens color. Ish.

Statiscally (for given values), your experience is more typical:

According to the Adobe Digital Index (I have no idea what that is or how accurate), 43 percent of people are Mystic, 32 percent are Valor, 25 are Instinct.

I don't actually know, but this is what I turned up when I googled just now.

Names his parents as Keven & Neville (does not specify gender):

These two name his dad as Keven:

SA

I don't spend a lot of time looking at people's Linked In pages, so maybe I'm misunderstanding the headers. But it strikes me as very Canadian that she lists her son being drafted by the Caps under her "Honors and Awards."

With how much time it takes up, being a hockey mom is a very serious hobby.

I cannot wait for the Matt Murray edition of this. It must be fairly temperate in Thunder Bay, because in all his photos, including outside, he in black head to ankle, including long sleeves with the neck zipped up to the top. And then beige canvas shoes.

Behold, our goalie of the future, bless his heart.

His brothers are James and Peter/Pete. Willy is the middle kid. Pete is famous, well sort of I guess in Caps circles, for staunchly defending his brother on Twitter. He's gone head to head with Japers Rink and RMNB people before. And Pete wrote a book.

here's a rmnb article on him: http://www.russianmachineneverbreaks.com/2013/04/22/they-play-hockey-in-heaven-the-new-book-by-tom-wilsons-brother-peter/

Thanks so much, nonnie. This was a treasure trove for the brothers. I appreciate it and Peter seems so sweet.

IDK if you wanted an essay but here you go. I should preface this by saying that I agree that Perry plays dirty, I hate it, and I want him to stop. I totally get why other fans dislike him so much, especially when he does something shitty on ice.

I like him because he's a good hockey player and a cornerstone of the Ducks. He had that 50-goal Hart season. He consistently leads a playoff-contending team in goals. He and Getzlaf play really well together. This past season he and the team had a horrible, horrible, horrible start but he bounced back to again put up >30 goals. He's willing to play in front of the net, chase loose pucks, and is a great finisher. His past 2 seasons haven't been his best but I hope he'll break out again. (Well, I hoped. Like I said, Carlyle has killed my hopes and dreams.)

Perry is by no means an interesting or even nice personality. But I find the non-dirty pest things he does funny (stealing sticks, that time he filled Jeff Carter's glove with water). His interviews are dead boring but sometimes if you get him with Ryan Getzlaf he's marginally funny. He does a lot of charity work, including supporting youth hockey and cancer foundations. Teemu Selanne loves him, I love Teemu Selanne.

ayrt

Those are all good things! I'm kind of startled by how many similarities there are to Marchand, who is my "I wish he weren't so dirty" fave. The goal-scoring and being besties with his center, in particular.

It must be such a depressing time to be a Ducks fan. :\ A bunch of disappointing playoff finishes and then Carlyle, wtf.

Re: Hopes, wishes and dreams for 16/17

(Anonymous) 2016-07-20 01:41 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, Marchand's a good comparison! They've even both got big noses.

So depressing :( I just can't let go of this sadsack team.
