Re: Fandom Goggles
(Anonymous) 2017-04-26 10:21 pm (UTC)(link)No problem! Honestly, I follow Junior hockey and have friends who have kids and nieces/nephews playing at lower levels, and I still find it a bit convoluted and confusing sometimes.
I've heard/read lots of comments about the locker room being pretty tight-knit, which I know every team says, but even guys who've done PTOs have said the same things, so it might not entirely be off-base. I wouldn't imagine "whoops, I have no idea how I ended up with this person's shirt, but I'll wear it" is totally far fetched, haha. And Petro and Jake were drafted the same year and have only ever played for the Blues, so fic with them could be a lot of fun! Jake seems fairly laid back when he's not the ice, too, so the personality contrast could be interesting.
I am 100% behind kept rookie fic, too! And yeah, Parayko has basically been one of the best kinds of surprises for fans. He's had some minor struggles, but overall he's pretty put-together for a guy who's only in his second year. Even back in his rookie year, a lot of the other players and media commented a lot on his composure and hockey sense and how good he was at communicating with his teammates and helping direct play.

(Anonymous) 2017-04-27 03:56 am (UTC)(link)i'm always down for personality contrasts (among other things, it's one of the reasons i miss hockey spouses pk/carey so so much.) so petro/jake is interesting me right now, but i am *not* up for the amount of research i'd have to do.
it's not exactly *kept* rookie, but a friend of mine and i now have a whole bunch of not!fic parayko/reaves thanks to whichever nonnie came up with "north american rookies all get tentacles" (basically nc-17 tentacle mentoring 101 turns more serious after parayko's rookie year ends with him using his words that *feelings* got involved. ryan's understandably "ok, mature for your years but still a bb plus neither of us is trade-proof so think about this over the summer/etc." so summer is them doing basically whatever their rl selves did only with some skype/phone sex and keeping in touch included, and they're more-or-less dating in that verse at the moment. we decided that keeping tentacles once you got off your elc was basically a personal decision, and that because of that some guys keep them either a) as an edge to stay on a roster if they're not superstars because NA rookies are a common thing b) it's fun or c) combo platter.)

(Anonymous) 2017-06-12 03:19 am (UTC)(link)BizNasty talked about *his* PTO back in 2016 (where he and Ryan Whitney were basically there to be the "court jesters") and said he seriously wanted the Blues to adopt him/the org was quality. So them having a really tight-knit locker room is backed up by at least one short-timer.
Among other things, Ryan Reaves had Biz and Whitney over for dinner a couple times during their stay in St. Louis. (Biz basically said "yeah, we got paid to fight each other when I was still a Coyote but we're cool on a personal level that was essentially just business", and says nice things about several other Blues.)
The link is about *last* year's playoffs. I have no idea who he's going for in this SCF, although if I had to guess I'd go with the Pens because he was in their org for a while.
