Are there even really any? I know there's a few with Prust which is arguably not any better. 7iris wrote a couple of tumblr fics with him and Carey Price which were good PWP but yeah I think that's it?

So much this.

Ugh. I would take Gallgher all day instead of Prust.

I'm glad they're friends. Nate reminds me in a weird way of a young Dupuis and I think they're both adept at getting Sid out of his head. Which I think he needs.

I was hoping he would be at the World Cup for hockey reasons, but also so there would be better people to ship him with.

Ovi's married

Nice! Congrats to him and his wife. They looked very happy in that photo of them wearing white.

(Also, do we know if it's been in the works for a while & just kept quiet, or was there a happy surprise that bumped the wedding up?)

Re: Gossip and off-ice lives

[(Anonymous)]

I heard they were engaged a few weeks ago, but I wouldn't be surprised either way.

Re: Gossip and off-ice lives

[(Anonymous)]

I think I saw on reddit a few weeks ago that it was coming up, and they've been engaged for a while.

Re: Gossip and off-ice lives

Apparently someone said they'd have a ceremony in August awhile ago (with the party to happen next year) and there was lots of speculation that they were touring wedding venues all summer, etc.

People in this fandom and their number socks... But What Do They Mean?

Hockey RPF doesn't seem to have a place to find betas, cheerleaders, or writing support. Does anyone know of any comms? Lists of beta volunteers?

Re: Writer Support

[(Anonymous)]

Ask on FFA or here, honestly, or if this is for a challenge, maybe ask the mods. I don't think there's anything centralized.

Re: Fandom Venting

I was also hoping he'd be healthy in time to go to Worlds, because that always provides fun options.

Re: Fandom Venting

[(Anonymous)]

nayrt I still can't believe they choose JT Miller over Jenner/Galchenyuk what were they thinking?

Re: Writer Support

[(Anonymous)]

I'm hoping a centralized Imzy community takes off, since it seems like a good platform for this sort of thing. There are already a few, but I'm not interested in one of them for reasons and the other isn't seeing too much activity yet. But it's early.

Re: Writer Support

[(Anonymous)]

NA
Slightly OT, but would you say Imzy is worth joining in general? I know next to nothing about it.

Re: Writer Support

[(Anonymous)]

ayrt

If you have a username that you're possessive of and/or are invested in staying ahead of the curve, I'd say go ahead and join. Otherwise, I would say you're not missing much. People are there but no one's posting a whole lot of content, since I don't think people have quite worked out what to do with it yet.

Re: Fandom Venting

I don't know about Galchenyuk (Bergevin not optimizing him may have played a part) but Miller scored 22 goals while not on the Rangers' first line, was a positive Corsi rel player the past season (unlike Jenner), and is a winger full-time, which I suspect is the most important, considering the number of centers already on the roster. It means they're not converting yet another player to wing.

Furthermore, he won gold on the 2013 WJC team with several other members of Team NA, which could have been a consideration as well. Though obviously so was Galchenyuk.

Briere/Giroux. Just a head's up that this exists, since it's from Rare Pair Fest and its date didn't get updated. I thought it was pleasant, although I wanted the scenes to feel a little bit tighter.

I'm considering actually following Jakc Eochel on insta. Just so my utter laziness doesn't miss his fashion choices.

Jack. Wtf are those pants.
