watch the five hole
for @steddiemicrofic prompt ‘hole’
rated t | 404 words
cw: language | tags: hockey au, goalie Eddie Munson, forward Steve Harrington, friends to enemies to lovers, ambiguous but pretty obvious ending
🥅🥅🥅🥅🥅🥅🥅🥅🥅🥅🥅🥅
A shootout is a blessing and a curse.
When your team can’t finish it in 60, or in overtime, it’s down to you. Well, you and someone else to score a goal.
Eddie thrived under this pressure, practically prayed for it to happen against certain teams. He wanted to prove himself as a rookie, and this was the best way to do it.
His record for the season was impressive so far, and he planned on keeping it that way.
But for some fucking reason, his first NHL shootout had to be against the Avalanche, the most impressive offensive team this season. Their players were good.
And Steve Harrington wanted nothing more than to be the one to score against him, he just knew it.
They’d played together in high school, somehow beat the odds to both be drafted first round. They always supported each other.
Until they didn’t.
Steve had made a snide comment about being excited to play for a team with a real goalie during his draft interviews, and Eddie didn’t really like his fucking tone.
As if he hadn’t saved their team over and over again when they forgot how to defend their own net. As if Eddie hadn’t spent four years of their lives basically worshiping the ground Steve walked on. As if-
He looked straight ahead as soon as Steve took the ice. Eddie saw the flash of the 86 on his sleeve, thought about his own 86 on the back of his sweater.
He thought about its relevance to them, but quickly pushed the thought away when the whistle blew and Steve started skating down the ice with the puck.
He knew Steve, knew his habits, knew he’d go blocker side, top shelf. That’s where 90% of his shots went tonight.
Steve shot.
The buzzer went off.
Eddie looked behind him and frowned at the puck in the back of the net.
Steve stopped in front of him.
“Gotta watch your five hole, Eds. You’re a pro now.”
Luckily, he saved the next attempt and his guys managed to win it.
When he left the rink, Steve was waiting for him, Bruins beanie on his head with a number 86 on it.
“Think I could buy the goalie a late dinner?”
“Why?” Eddie couldn’t fathom Steve wanting to actually take him out.
“Because I figured I could try to score twice tonight.”
Eddie nodded. “Get in, Harrington.”

Casey Jr mask progress!!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
it took like three hours to figure what the fuck was going on with CJ's mask but it finally makes sense!!!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
never worked with foam before but this came out way better than I expected! (I did wing most of it though)
next step is to sand it down, patch with foam clay, then seal and paint (and then I'm gonna make the flip mechanism so it lifts like his :D)

[mike heika: and then, what’d you see from jake? obviously bouncing back from a healthy scratch, he’s done it before, but — it’s a pretty good game.]   yeah, i mean — he made the saves that, i mean … he’s comfortable, comfortable out there. um, you know, i blocked a couple for him, so.   [jake oettinger: always.]   (jason laughs)   [mike heika: i think everybody did!]   uh, yeah, so it’s —   [mike heika: you went three or four?]   what’s that?   [mike heika: was it three, or four?]   i think it was — should’ve been two, for sure. so, um —   [mike heika: look at — he’s looking it up!]   (jason laughs)   [unidentifiable: it was two.]   i did get two!   [mike heika: officially.]   yeah, i think — i remember those. uh, but, uh … no, i think jake’s played, you know — great bounce-back game, for not just him but the whole group. um, you know, that game in ottawa was tough but we recovered, moved on, and got it done tonight.

Celebrations for LT’s first playoff win!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Loved how right after the horn sounded at the end of the game, Hanifin just whirls around to give LT a hug.
Also Marchessault tapping LT’s chest like yeah you earned this win had me grinning.
My gosh I love this team.

One of my favourite things about the 2012-13 NHL lockout -- yes, I have more than one favourite thing about the 2012-13 NHL lockout, what of it? -- anyway, one of my favourite things about the 2012-13 NHL lockout was that Nicklas Bäckström and Alexander Ovechkin still played together during it, for Ovi's boyhood team Dynamo Moscow. It had a "yeah, Nick, why don't you come over to my house and we'll play some hockey until all the unpleasantness gets sorted out" kind of vibe, and it was nice! (Image Source)

Usually my birthday is a pretty whatever event but I'm kind of excited for this one tbh. Like not for any party or anything, though I'm excited for the dinner my mom is making and I'm excited to volunteer at an in person event for my non profit job and meet some of my coworkers and feel like I'm helping in a real way for once. (My birthday gift to myself....leaving the house to volunteer for several hours lol.)
Idk I think it's bc when I was a teen if you had asked me if I was gonna make it solidly to my mid-30s I would have been like lol no I hope not.....obviously there's still time for me to get hit by a Mack truck before tomorrow but it's like, despite how bad this year has been, I never really lost my will to live? Like yes I wanted to give up sometimes, but giving up never really looked like being dead, it mostly looked like (and was lmfao) lying facedown on the floor for an hour making angry seal noises until I regained the ability to do the dishes or take out the trash.
Which is pretty nice, I think, and shows a lot of growth I never really thought I would achieve. Like yeah things were hard this year! They're still hard! I'm stressed all the time! Sometimes it feels like I never get a break or a chance to breathe and that's bad! But I never really want to be dead and I do still want to keep going and I do hope I make it to 40 and 50 and 60 and longer than that, and that's a nice feeling. I've spent a lot of my life not feeling that way!
Maybe it took me a while to want to live a good, long, vibrant life, but I got there finally and I'm excited for it. Even if I spend the rest of my life stressed and saying stupid shit about athletes on the internet to cope with how overwhelmed I am, it's nice that it doesn't seem unbearable - it feels like that when my time comes at idk 90 or whatever, I'll have maybe, hopefully, lived a life I enjoyed and a life that I can be proud of in big or small ways. And that's a really really nice feeling to have going into my birthday.

so i looked at the russian, japanese and korean wikipedias, went to their hockey-based articles, translated them into english and the results are a fucking trip.

another narrative that will always break me: the concept of The Last Game. the last game you’ll play with this specific team. maybe not knowing it’s your last game but deep down thinking it could be. the last of everything you’ve known. built up and up and up and for it to fall flat. sigh.

Letterkenny – An Exploration of a Uniquely Canadian Romp
TL;DR – This is a delightful insight into a part of Canadian life. Disclosure – I watched these episodes on SBS. Letterkenny Review – As Christmas Day approaches (or if you are outside of Canada, you will get it on Boxing Day), it means that a Canadian institution is drawing to a close. It’s a show I discovered once by seeing a GIF on Imgur about kids falling off bikes, which is an odd entry…
