When did Drouin get hot???

Re: Fandom Goggles

[(Anonymous)]

For me, about six months ago.

Re: Fandom Goggles

When he started smiling like a normal person and less like an evil hobbit. (Fandom goggles. Obviously this is happening because he's with his one true love.)

Who?

Pay attention nonny! We're talking about how much better Drounin looks now that he's next to MacKinnon his One True Bae. My OTP lives again!!!

Re: Fandom Goggles

[(Anonymous)]

My reaction as well!! Since when does he look like THAT!!!

Re: Fandom Goggles

[(Anonymous)]

IDK but I started to notice around the time he came back from exile at the end of last season...I think it's the fluffier hair, it looks really good on him

Re: Fandom Goggles

[(Anonymous)]

During the playoffs he had a truly tragic beard where no hair grew on his chin so it was like an unintentional chinstrap, but he's been looking better since he shaved that off.

Re: Fandom Goggles

I need the fic where MacKinnon is super smug that he locked Drouin down when they were sixteen and now look, he has a super hot boyfriend tbh

Re: Fandom Goggles

They were nominated for rarepairs, I think, maybe someone is writing them for that?

When I saw this on twitter I pretty much squealed with joy...LOOK AT THEM AND THEIR ADORABLENESS

also, who is doing this interview? I want to say Eichel, because it sounds like one of the voices he used when playing with the Moulson kids in that one video, but I can't tell...

I remember a few years back someone did a primer for them (before the Drouin draft, at least), and it is still one of the cutest things I've ever seen. I don't care about juniors at all (which is what it was), but it became my fave primer anyway.

Re: Fandom Goggles

I'm going to need a link nonnie. It's been HOURS and the fandom gods have not produced yet. Jerks.

Can somebody try and watch this and tell me if its geoblocked (I'm in the US) or if my computer + TVA is just a match made in hell??

Can anyone transcribe or translate Jo's French? I can't understand his accent wompwomp

Re: Fandom Goggles

[(Anonymous)]

I can't help you nonnie. But I find him infinitely more attractive when he speaks French for some odd reason.

Re: Fandom Goggles

[(Anonymous)]

if you want to watch another video where he speaks French, this one is pretty funny and there are subtitles: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0hdKaNYQkLM

other videos where he speaks French (no subtitles):

http://www.rds.ca/videos/hockey/lnh/challenge-hockey-rds-ea-sports-les-affrontements-du-groupe-huberdeau-1re-periode-3.1166668
http://www.rds.ca/videos/hockey/lnh/challenge-hockey-rds-ea-sports-les-affrontements-du-groupe-huberdeau-2e-periode-3.1166670
http://www.rds.ca/videos/hockey/lnh/challenge-hockey-rds-ea-sports-les-affrontements-du-groupe-huberdeau-3e-periode-3.1166678
http://www.rds.ca/videos/Hockey/NationalHockeyLeague/2/cedric-paquette-remporte-le-challenge-hockey-rds-ea-sports-3.1179551 (I love the banter in this one)
- playing NHL 15, Drouin vs Bernier then Drouin vs Paquette

https://streamable.com/jpuz - he talks about what he does the day before a game, what he eats. he tells Morissette he can cook and he jokingly says his mother told him to put butter in the pan.

http://www.rds.ca/videos/hockey/jonathan-drouin-dans-l-antichambre-1.633071 - at 3:36, they ask him about a picture where it looks like he's kissing a teammate during a celly. I love that he pronounces MacKinnon's name the French way.

http://www.rds.ca/videos/hockey/inconduite-de-partie-jonathan-drouin-3.1112045 - the movie he can watch over and over again: Friday Night Lights. his worst travel memory: a 6-hour bus ride without air conditioning. at 2:10, he talks about MacKinnon's bad driving and MacKinnon's "favorite" song.

Re: Fandom Goggles

I'm not great with the accent either so I hope someone will come along with a better translation, but it's definitely something about a reunion (he uses the word retrouvailles which I think has ~connotations~ in French-from-France, but that may not be the same in Quebecois) and how it's fun to be on the same team, etc. etc. And then in the second bit of French he says that Mac is the more immature one out of the two of them.

Re: Fandom Goggles

Definitely not 100% accurate.

"Non, c'est cool. C'est un peu, pas une retrouvaille, mais je pense que ça nous rappelle pas mal de souvenirs, et qu'on jouait au Junior comme je lui ai dit. Tu sais, c'est le fun de s'avoir revenus dans la même équipe un peu, et puis on a encore du fun comme avant. Alors, c'est pas mal amusant."
