Any thoughts on how long a deadline? I'd think like a month, but maybe sometime after September 20, because of the Hockey Rarepair due date?

Maybe have it coincide with the end of the World Cup of Hockey so people have stuff to amuse themselves with between that and the season proper?

AYRT That's either the 29th Sept or 1 October the Monday after is the 3rd so we could call that the end date. It's about 10 days before the start of the season.

I don't know if I'll be able to write anything for this, but I will be happy to both make prompts and comment on fills!

Fantastic, comments and prompts make a kinkmeme fun.

To be fair, if you were forced at gunpoint to pick one team that could spend fifteen years as a bottom feeder with a McDavid-caliber player, Edmonton would be it...

But on a more serious note, if you have to get rid of him for story purposes, it wouldn't be hard to make it even a little more plausible. Like he leaves as a UFA, or to chase a cup in his 30s. Moot point, though: I was somewhat willing to give the fic the benefit of the doubt that there would be a better explanation forthcoming, but now in the latest chapter there's some serious tampering played off like it's nbd so I'm officially done with this fic (which I'm not sure why I was even reading in the first place, tbh).

The PCL already has the Albuquerque Isotopes, not that it should make a difference to the NHL.

Re the 51s and the naming issues, the 51s ownership was trying to change the name a few years ago but I don't know why they didn't. And vague gambling themes are not apparently an issue with PCL teams; the Reno Aces exist.

1) I'm not. I do read original hockey fic though and occasionally read gen fics.

2) my cousins played youth hockey and I also had a pen pal who wanted to trade hockey cards. This was back in 1988-89. I came back when hockey became the thing that ate fandom, and also the thing that took over break room discussion at work.

3) I'm from ffa and came over here when hockey the sport was made just as unwelcome as hockey the fic.

4) Minnesota Wild, the team with no RPF fandom. I admit to being casual af and mainly watch because I seem to have locked on to Devan Dubnyk as my fandom woobie. I love it when he complains about not getting run support.

5) Nashville Predators, because I am in Brewers fandom, the Predators AHL affiliate is in Milwaukee and everyone I know who is not into the NBA is into the Ads for some reason. Gotta love a team named after refrigerators.

6) were some of you looking for me later in the season this year? I saw a comment needing the Brewers minor league nonny from ffa but I haven't been meming much in 2016.

what happened on ffa? I only go there very rarely (and found deke through the kink meme) so I have no idea

Eh. It's not terrible and that's apparently where the bar is set for me currently (I accidentally read the first 5 paragraphs of the amputee AU and that was really, really too close to home for me to handle (read the tags, holy shit it was my own fault I ended up there, but really self. mind the tags)). And the tampering made me laugh because while I'm not naive enough to believe it doesn't happen in the NHL. But I sure hope actual NHL GMs are a little more subtle about it than PKane is in the story.

Just heavily implying that hockey has its own meme so discussion needed to go over here now and never there, unless it's drama reports (and even then not so much)

Idk why don't you go tell them then?

I'm actually not sure the author realizes that's tampering and not allowed. McDavid said he'd had other meetings like that one.

Any bets where Jimmy Vesey will sign?

Boston seems most likely, but he'll probably wind up in Chicago because the universe likes to fuck with me.

Re: Random Hockey Stuff

(Anonymous) 2016-08-16 07:34 pm (UTC)(link)
He turned down Detroit because it was too far from home, so Chicago and Toronto (though maybe the Leafs less so since family factor) are likely out.

Re: Random Hockey Stuff

(Anonymous) 2016-08-16 07:43 pm (UTC)(link)
It's true that he did, but Detroit isn't Chicago, and I firmly believe in the universe's desire to mess with me.

Supposedly the Pens are in on him, which was news to this Pens fan, and I haven't heard a peep about the Sabres in weeks. In conclusion, I have no freaking idea. (But it better not be Chicago.)

Re: Random Hockey Stuff

(Anonymous) 2016-08-16 08:40 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't think they're really in on him so much as they are doing their due diligence. It doesn't cost them anything to meet with him, even if it's highly unlikely to go anywhere.

Hey, it already showed up in the shipping goggles thread, and I saw a primer-ish thing on Tumbler this morning:

I feel like if he was planning to sign with the Sabres he would have done it already since they had his rights.

He said from the beginning that he still planned on going to free agency. I've pretty much given up guessing where he's going, other than vaguely hoping that he doesn't go to the undesirables. It'd be fun to try and hit Chicago with the tampering stick, though. Just to fuck with them.
