Fabio would totally be the Roope Hintz of the hockey world you just painted. And marc would absolutely tote his brother around with him to every team. Pecco-Luca-Bezz, the Hughes bro trio equivalent with pecco being a dead ringer for Quinn Hughes ever tired-of-this-bullshit air.

The rosquez age difference reminded me of the Eric Staal/Jeff Skinner of it all.

pecco quinn hughes is so real it’s frightening… the alex thing makes me LAUGH because the leafs just signed william nylander’s younger less talented brother to their team purely to make him happy and he is ALSO named alex so. life imitated art

[skjeinon]

BETWEEN TWO STAALS LMAOOOO

dude im cryinggg. my love for jeff skinner will never stop and the fact that (i’m guessing it was his idea) he hung photos of the staals up in the backdrop kills me! he’s honest to god the funniest person while simultaneously making me cry over him and eric.

[sergeifyodorov]

"no yaoi about (jeff skinner)" do we not remember the sacred texts? do the people not know of eric "homophobia" staal railing him at any and all given opportunities while he was in carolina? how quickly we forget our past. was this a niche no one else saw? do we not know of this?

okay fair fair i apologize and rescind my statement!!!!!!!! i take it back!!! we need modern buffalo era yaoi abt skinner!

[brandoncarlo]

Not that this is what the whole debacle was about but it has made me curious to know. Does Eric Staal realize that st the height of his career the largest hockey ship was him and Jeff Skinner.

[a1exkra1ie]

Maybe I drank extra dumb bitch juice this morning because your "obviously closeted"/most homophobic man to me means Elias Patterson/Ivan Proverov.

I think I am definitely missing something is this Jeff skinner and Eric staal??

ARE THOSE REAL SHIPS? I dont even know who ivan proverov is

no it was sidovi <3

EDIT wait I just reread this WHAT DO YOU MEAN JEFF SKINNER??? HE HAS GAY RUMOURS? all of this is news to me

[workingforitallthetime]

now that the narrative is all here i have world building questions for you!!! specifically about scenting & a little about bonding: we know that mason/connor, kent/owen, to-be-bonded pairs in general have a different smell to their mate than they do to everybody else around them—is this like a soulmates type of deal? is there only one person who would smell different/better (connor is described as ice rink whereas mason always calls omegas vaguely “sweet”)? is it based off of compatibility? (could you have varying degrees of scent? could somebody’s scent change to you over time or do you always know immediately that you’re mates?) is a bond a conscious choice/what happens if a bond is left faulty? can it break? does the ex-bondmate’s scent change entirely then? would you be able to smell a new bond once your old bond broke (so it’s just one at a time) or is it one and done forever? ALSO!! sorry i am asking 10000 things, zero obligations/expectations for answers, but i just really want to know if there is a “generic alpha smell” in the same way that omegas are “sweet” (and is it “spicy” :))) <3

i honestly did not think through a lot of these questions when i was conceptualizing this story! i am generally anti soulmates bc i think people having agency is more interesting. loosely, my thinking about this universe was that people you are compatible with are going to have a more distinct and alluring scent to you. you have the potential to bond with anyone you’re compatible with, usually intentionally via intimacy, although 18-24yo dudes often have an artificially narrow idea of what intimacy is and that’s how people end up, say, accidentally bonding in the tunnel at mullett arena.

as the dynamic expert explains to mason, you’ll eventually heal from a faulty bond although it takes time. i think in that situation the parties would still recognize their scents as compatible, however. (possibly this is the tragic backstory of jeff skinner and eric staal i alluded to earlier.)

yes there is a generic alpha smell and it’s best described as “earthy.”

So I didn’t realise how much I was yapping about jeff skinner until now so I decided to add a “keep reading” line or it would take up so much dashboard space 😭 but enjoy this jeff skinner info dump

But yeah Jeff Skinner won the Calder with the Carolina Hurricanes and was drafted 7th overall in 2010, he’s played over 1000 games— but something funny about him and the Calder, the NHL awards where held in Las Vegas at Palms Casino Resort in the food court and you have to be 21 to get enter the casino floor which led to the food court but Jeff was 19 at the time and people were theorising if he was going to have trouble entering the floor, but he had no trouble entering so it was all good 👍

But Jeff Skinner letting the fans choose his suit is iconic: these were the 3 suits (he looks so dead inside in the 2nd photo) the first suit won

Jeff was called the Bieber of hockey by fans because he was a young bieber-ish looking guy and the captain at the time Eric Staal said this about jeff;

“It has a Justin Bieber-type feel to it, but he’s got a Justin Bieber-type look, too.”

While on the pop culture(ish) thing

He can name all three Jonas brothers (he blames his sisters for that knowledge)

He is the person in the Swift-Kelce jeresy meme

He’s met ed sheeran like 3 different times

He is the second youngest out of 5 siblings and the only boy. Growing up he did figure skating which is something that is bought up A LOT

But while he was in Carolina fans joked about him being the 5th staal brother as you can see here 👇

He was also in a movie called “death to smoochy” at 9 years old as one of the ice skating kids

He was traded to buffalo in 2018 and it was for lack of a better word controversial, because he had a no trade clause but then he activated the trade clause and chose buffalo (but with this I’m not 100% certain so if you know more please do tell)

And of course one of the most iconic things, Jeff Skinners goal song something that buffalo CLEARLY didn’t factor in when buying out jeff. The songs are as followed:

Party in the USA

I wanna dance with somebody

All I want for Christmas is you, but this was a one off on the 9th December 2022

And of course; high school musical, breaking free

And for Jeffs 1000th game he made a playlist (highly recommend listening to it) but the songs are:

The best of both worlds, hannah montana

The climb, miley cyrus

We can’t stop, miley cyrus

Firework, Katy Perry

What dreams are made of, hilary duff

My heart will go on, céline dion

Higher love, whitney houston

Beautiful soul, jesse mccartney

Sk8ter boy, avril lavigne

Conga, gloria estefen

Wannabe, spice girls

Bellas final, pitch perfect

EGOT, connor price

Jeff Skinner mentioned in a video when he was mic’d up that he watched Emily in Paris and loved it and this set of a saga of Emily in Paris jokes, and then the main actress Lily Collin made Jeff a personal video for his 1000 game

He also has a short series called between 2 stalls that I HIGHLY recommend watching it’s very funny

For a while he was also called “the mullet” because for all stars 2018 he started growing a mullet and the Sabres Insta posted this 👇

And this is honestly just one of my favourite Jeff Skinner quotes, what possessed him to say it idk (I made it into an inspirational quote because I can’t upload videos) (x, 1:02)

Additionally he might have a tragic love story with jack eichel but that is neither here nor there

He *might* have also been in love with Elias Lindholm, but that isn’t important either

Finally some of my personal favourite jeff skinner photos and videos

Here’s someones Pintrist board from 9 years ago that I found (it greatly entertained me)

Videos: (links)

Jeff Skinner, first point (goal) interview

Who is Jeff?

Between 2 stalls 1k game special

“You have no fucking teeth” chirp

Literally just smiley jeff

Undercover jeff skinner

And 2 skinny edits that won’t leave my brain

x

x (this one’s angsty, sorry)

Okay so jeff skinner won the calder? And he was drafted in the taylor/tyler year??

And apparently his suit choice for that year’s NHL awards was chosen by fan votes? On seventeen.com??

And he was called the “justin bieber of hockey”???

What the hell was going on in 2011????

[stupidsexyseguin]

I know you mentioned making more fic rec lists but off the top of your head what are your very fave fics?

this list is genuinely just the first things that came to mind. there are other fics out there that i absolutely love and enjoy, but these stand out in my memory for one reason or another.

Out of play, out of competition by thenorthfaceaka: the wilso/latts bachelor!au that i love to death and cannot reccomend enough to everyone and is 140k of the good kind of pining and slowburn friends to lovers content that we all need

The Washington royals by screamlethonestly magic. backstrom/ovechkin arranged marriage!au royalty!au in which they both still play hockey and i love it. 

earthquake weather by delightfulalotbennguin rule!63 in which jamie and tyler try to make a long distance relationship work. warning for angst but it gets resolved and is over all a delightful piece of work.

Burn Our Fingers and Change Our Names by Linskyor the one in which tyler seguin is a werewolf and doesn’t know it and it’s fucking hilarious (and full of pining). werewolfau a/b/o bennguin

A Good Education by rsadellebrioux, post-retirement-didn’t-get-bought-out!danny fic in which danny goes to college and navigates his relationship with Claude as it becomes something more than he ever wanted to think it could. good shit.

that girl is a goddamn problem by wonthetradeMcEichel rule63!au series in which most things are the same but Jack Eichel is a girl and she and Connor McDavid do a lot of hate fucking turned friends turned lovers. really good. i’ve read it like three times and i would honestly go back and read it again right now despite my last re-read being three days ago.

as long as it’s about me by Anonymousmarnthews hate fucking to lovers? auston hates the media forcing mitch’s friendship on him. anyway i love it. 

King and Lionheart by thehoydenLook, this fic is on everyone’s sidgeno rec lists for a reason. it’s a lovely fic of some beautifully worked tropes and even though i’ve gone off the pairing lately, I can’t not include it on this list. marriage of convenience!au 

If Heaven’s Hypothetical by impertinence and shoemaster jeff skinner is a homeless runaway who somehow ended up serving eggs to eric staal in a carolina diner. this fic is so super good and is what really got me into this ship.

Summer Brave; Winter Bare by derryderrydownum. tomas hertl/jaromir jagr soulmate!au? 

Bad Press by marycontrairebrioux, danny and claude’s relationship gets accidentally outed on instagram by one of danny’s kids. everyone is super supportive of them. which would be great- if they hadn’t broken up when danny went to montreal. would read could read a hundred thousand times. claude is a great step mom.
