ayrt

I went with Marner/Matthews because I feel like being on the same team (and not being complete social media shut-ins) will really help in the long run. They're not my fave rookie pair, but they're who I see the most ship potential in currently.

Same team and unlikely to be traded (anytime soon) is incredibly important to get a juggernaut going. It makes everything a lot easier.

Same team and franchise players? I wonder why McDavid/Draisaitl hasn't caught on then. Are all the people writing McJesus already locked in with the other two McDavid pairings as their OTPs? I hope it will change if McDavid & Draisaitl keep on their intensity & potentially develop into 1C & 2C mainstays of a really good Oilers team. After all, a similar dynamic seems to be working for Sid/Geno?

I guess time will tell. It very well could pick up but as of now it seems like if you're gonna do McDavid, it's Strome or Eichel. Leon Draisaitl/Connor McDavid currently has 23 fics and quite a few are either secondary or gen.

I know. I have a huge hard-on for Draisaitl, because of his hockey and his looks, but unfortunately he's a non-entity in fandom. Too European or something. I just cannot get into a pairing where I find both parties vaguely unattractive.

Not that I actually expect an explosion of McDavid/Lucic, but I wish there more of it. The tag is so small. :(

I kinda wish I were a BNF just so I could make Draisatl/McDavid fetch happen, they seem like a great pairing that has long-term potential and would be infinitely less annoying than the leafs rookies (I don't really mind them as a pairing, but lord their fans seem to be especially obnoxious).

If you can write good fic on a semi-regular basis, you don't need to be a BNF to make fetch happen.

Idk. McDavid fans, Leafs rookies fans; they're pretty pot and kettle when it comes to being obnoxious.

I'm surrounded by both and find them equally obnoxious.

I truly dislike them all
