Things from the 2017-2018 Dallas Stars Season

I posted this on Pillowfort a while back, just after the season ended, but realized that I never posted it here. So, I guess I might as well.

I kept a list all year of little funny or stupid things from the 17-18 Season, and I thought someone else might get some enjoyment out of it too. Here goes:

Rads! All Rads all the time. His cellys (The "Celly Like Rads" t-shirt, even), his determined positivity, his insane Russian face and toothless grin.

Tyler Seguin's first career fight vs former teammate Patrik Nemeth, and subsequent Gordie Howe Hat Trick (what a night!)

Radek Faksa's first career hat trick!

The time Ben Bishop got in a fight

The time Ben Bishop got an assist

Yellow Laces (five game win streak, 11/24 through 12/4)

Curtis McKenzie (I don’t have anything to add, just Curtis McKenzie)

When Rads mowed down Eaks (Cody Eakin) in the season opener vs Vegas

"Road woes" :(

When Rads tackled Tyler to the ice in a celly (12/3)

"Stay on side, dumb-dumb" - our captain Jamie Benn to Nathan Mackinnon

Having the #1 PK and #2 PP in the league!

#HitchHockey

The time Ben wasn't shy about being aggravated when Hitch pulled him

Losing Oleksiak to the Penguins for a pick :( We miss you, Big Rig! (SIdenote, he did really well with the Pens! Proud and happy for him!)

Kari and Rous's chidren are born

Drivin with Devin/Ridin with Rous commercials

84 penalty minutes in the first period vs noted rivals Florida Panthers 1/23 (lol)

Heater's NHL debut!

Retro Night! 8-bit graphics and a 6-1 win vs the Wild.

Sweeping the Blackhawks for the season :)

The Big 4 all have 50 points (1st team in the league this year to have four players with 50+)

Seguin's career-high goal streak lasts 5 games

Casino Night :)

No moves at the deadline

Lost our playoff spot and our goalie in one night :(

Hanzal out for the season

The Road Trip from Hell that doomed our season

Janny's meat-grinder face (and Masterton nomination! Proud of this kid!)

92-year-old Lois makes cookies for Rous & the team

Jamie's increasingly short-tempered answers (Q: What do you think led to your loss tonight? A: The other team...scored more goals than we did?)

Jamie breaks his stick when he gets the goal for the 2nd most in Stars history behind Modano!

Seguin's 40th goal, for the first time in his career, and his post about his grandparents' death and how he knew he couldn't lose that night

Mathematically eliminated from the playoffs with three games to go (4/1)

Fan Appreciation Night at the last home game <3

Jamie with TWO hat tricks in the last three games to finish with the most points on the team, Seguin right behind him with the most goals on the team

@anonymous said,

hello !! can i get a matchup? im a pisces, infp & a ravenclaw. i am 5'0.5 and have medium length black wavy hair and brown eyes. i like to try new things though i can be shy & hesitant sometimes. i like things to remain light-hearted but i can be serious too when required. i have a different type of persona for every person,, if im comfortable with someone i get really really talkative and bubbly. (1)

also im like super addicted to my phone,, it's hard for me to even function w/o it. im pretty much a night owl and my sleeping schedule is messed up. i really like fashion, listening to music, travelling, photography, video games & SWEETS. I don't think im very good at comforting others but im a great listener. I'm super lazy & a big procrastinator. (2)

I cannot call or text anyone at all without dying like every second unless we're close. Usually, if i don't get my space i get really annoyed. I'm really stubborn too. I don't really have a hobby except listening to music, reading manga, webnovels or drawing? im so sorry this was so long thank you tho!! (3)

✧ Thank you so much for requesting a matchup anonnie. I don’t know when you send this but I hope you’ll see this and like it. 💓

I’d match you with: . . .

➜ HOW YOU TWO FIRST MET ; You were an intern at his company. One day, while everyone else was at lunch break, you were struggling to finish the assignment you were assigned which was due tomorrow and it didn’t help you at all that the person who was supposed to help you weren’t doing their jobs at all. With a groan, you pushed yourself off your office seat and made your way to the kitchen to get yourself a cup of coffee. It looked like you were staying overtime anyway. While walking towards your destination, you heard the background music of your favorite game and stopped in your tracks. At first you thought you were imagining the sound since it’s been a while since you last played it and there was literally no one else in the building aside from you but after listening more carefully for a while you were sure that someone in the office was indeed playing your favorite game. Careful not to make any noise, you basically tiptoed to the source of the sound only to be greeted with dark blonde locks. The celebrity of the company himself, the person who earned the trust of his coworkers and superiors alike like it was nothing, the one and only Chikasagi Itaru was playing YOUR favorite game. His pink eyes, which reminded you the stone Star Ruby, was glued on the phone in his hand deep in concentration under his bangs. You didn’t even realize you were in a daze until a curse left his lips and he threw his head back in frustration. That is when Itaru noticed that you were here and saw the whole thing. Now, don’t get him wrong, normally he wouldn’t even think of gaming while he was at work but there was this rare event he absolutely had to participate and rank. His game addict instincts basically took control over his mind. With a small smile on your lips you approached him and offered to help while he was desperately trying to think of any excuse to get him out of this situation. You knew you weren’t going to participate in this event no matter how much you wanted to anyway so you might as well use your skills to help someone in need, right? After convincing him to lend you his phone, which took a lot of effort ngl, you cleared the level he was stuck on with ease and handed him his phone back with a smug grin on your face. That was the moment when you became a gaming goddess in his eyes and as a thank you, he helped you with that assignment and miraculously, you managed to finish it before the deadline and started a new friendship with the hardcore gamer.

➜ PERSONALITY COMPATIBILITY ; First of all, you two compliment each other in a “we’re so similar I get why you’re like that”-way. You two can relate to each other with pretty much everything. He also has two different personas although it’s a bit different from yours but whenever Itaru is in professional mode, he is gentle and charming like a prince who genuinely cares about others but he somewhat maintains his distance and likes to keep his private life to himself but when he’s in home mode, he is not afraid to curse and be rude who also starts to get a bit lazy and outright competitive. I feel like he’s the type of person who would procrastinate as well so i’m just imagining you two lying down and telling each other that you should get up soon but none of you actually makes an attempt to do so.Cue you two rushing to finish whatever you were supposed to do afterwards. Don’t worry about not getting any space because Itaru is not the clingy type unless he’s like, really tired from work but who wouldn’t want to cuddle with their lover time to time? Also, I feel like he can manage your stubbornness because he’s a pretty chill guy.

➜ SHARED ACTIVITIES ; Like I said before, you two are basically two peas in a pot so if you really want to you can manage to do everything together. The fact that you like video games is a big plus in the relationship. Sometimes you two just game until the sun rise on your day offs since both of you are night owls and your sleeping schedule is basically nonexistent. If you’re in need for an extra player, Itaru personally drags Banri in your gaming sessions as well so you’re also good friends with the high-spec delinquent. Of course, he will take you out from time to time on normal dates like a mall, arcade, fun fair or a expensive restaurant, but this generally happens when you’re celebrating an important day like anniversaries or birthdays. I can picture you two sitting at a bakery, enjoying whatever you’ve ordered and passionately discussing if the newly released gamer keyboard is actually worth buying or not or going to an arcade and compete to see who can get the most tickets at the end of the day. I can also picture him dropping by your house with your favorite desserts after you’ve accomplished something amazing at work. In short, you’re literally the only person he’s willing to go all out for and he wouldn’t want to have it any other way.

➜ ZODIAC COMPATIBILITY ; Itaru’s birthday is on April 24 which makes him a Taurus. The connection between a Taurus and a Pisces will be built on sheer love and adoration for each other. The earth sign and water sign are complementary to each other. They are both caretakers of those around them and will thus nurture each other, and their relationship, with immense devotion and absolute dedication. Taurus helps Pisces to stay grounded and to focus on the reality. Pisces, on the other hand, soothes the rigidity of the Taurus to unwind themselves from the constant stress of expectations. This aids the bull breathe a little lighter and infuses their with self-assurance and optimism. This relationship will survive the test of time if both parties involved have unbreakable trust in each other and nurture that connection they have painstakingly built over the years. They must remember to be honest and committed to their partner through all times. If natural communication flows between them like clockwork, this will be a beautiful love story with a prominent tag of 'happily-ever-after' pinned right to it.
