I haven't read this all the way through yet, but I did take a peak at the notes (because I'm weird and like reading them if they don't look spoiler-y) and I was shocked that the one writer who I know is a big Flyers fan doesn't know that Claude Giroux is definitely a grace-saying, cross-wearing, good little Catholic boy. I guess that gets less talked about as the years go on though.

Anyway, I like it so far! I'm glad to have a Sid/Claude fic that features more of the Flyers crew, especially Wayne.

I don't know about it French, but in English, Catholic grace before meals isn't really an indication of actual religiosity. You just mumble the same prayer every time very quickly in a group so that all the words bleed together and then immediately start eating.

I mean, it's to the point that if I had to actually tell you the words of the prayer, I'm not entirely sure I could. It's one of those things I only really have memorized when said rotely in a group.

Fair enough! I was just giving a random example of it I remembered, I suppose the most important thing is that he likes to at least identify as Catholic and claim he goes to church.

For anyone who's in Germany (so one fellow nonnie? lol) or anyone with German tv, Sport1 is showing Germany's games (maybe some others on their pay TV channels?) live!

I'm so excited, fingers crossed! I'm sad Greiss isn't starting though. :(

Ryan and Adam are actually Dylan's cousins, but yes, I totally agree!

Someone on /r/hockey commented that it looks like they took pieces of Pittsburgh's retired Vegas Gold and stuck it all over the Flyers jersey. I feel awful for laughing, but also now I can't unsee it.

Not as bad as I expected, but they really should not have brought another colour into this.

I read somewhere it was gold for the gold anniversary, which is a nice sentiment.

TBH I like them more than the Pittsburgh thirds, which were ugly as sin, so.

Which Pittsburgh thirds? You mean the ones that got promoted to being the main home jerseys this year?

The DK team looks pretty strong. Andersen and Dahm in goal, all of the big NHL names apart from Eller. I would be so happy if we could do this.

I just read that Mads Bødker retired, though, so that's a blow to our dreams of producing a team with the least possible name variation.

“Should be good,” Eichel said. “Me and him got pretty close last year.”

How close, Jack? *eyebrow wiggle*

uh, i wasn't making a moral judgment? it's awkward trying to socialize in this fandom when people are being fannish and writing/reading dirtybadwrong stuff about the small handful of guys i actually kinda know as opposed to the thousands of guys i don't? i'm not interested in actively herding fandom away from these guys, and i wouldn't have the power to even if i did, but i don't think there's any harm in hoping it's just another fad people grow away from.
