hi sorry I'm stupid but are you rooting for the oilers or not in your last two posts I legit cannot tell (they're my hometown team and I'm not into hockey but I am into your writing and honestly I'm just wondering)

hi omg no sweat and ur not stupid, the fault’s entirely mine bc my hockey lb is extremely confusing! i am rooting for the oilers yea!! im first and foremost a canucks fan (theyre my hometown team) but i kept watching the playoffs and began to like the oilers seriously (its just. davo is so endearing. its kinda difficult to dislike a guy whose love for the sport is just so honest). that said, ive also been watching the eastern conference games so my awe for the panthers is tremendous bc theyre legit beasts

i rambled again but tl;dr is yea im rooting for the oilers 😭

take care my love and smooches <33

#anon #ask #suns net #only ever rooted for canucks tbh LMAO but davo kept popping up in my feed #(davo as in mcdavid)#and so i began to look into the guy (bc i can gen feel my dislike bloating and i didnt wanna entertain it bc i just wanna enjoy the game yk)#and jesus davo is. wow. i cant even begin to get into how fucking astounded ive become #my heartstrings were tugged the moment i found out two pivotal facts about davo’s start in the nhl:#1) he was drafted into the oilers bc they for REAL wanted him to save the struggling team. hockey is a team sport yea but davo was honest #to god some metaphor for a messiah and so until now hes been carrying these old-age expectations and pressure #2) he is the youngest permanent nhl captain in history - he was 19 years old at the time #and something about those made davo so much more.. human (?) to me #like cmon dude as a canucks fan? all we ever see was the overt favouritism to davo bc hes a living legend! it was exhausting! but then i saw #what that title really entailed and i felt bad for even disliking him sm when poor guy’s just tryna make his team win 😭#…this is so not me oikawa-fying davo
