Fic Rec: Fan Edits/Vines as Players
I know that I havenât posted a fic rec for a while (I work on a mega fic rec at the moment, but between school and exams I donât have much time or energy). But I thought I would do something different right now. I donât know if it would be the most entertaining or comfortable, however thatâs the best I could manage with the limitation of this site.
In general I think that there are so many tallented people on this site, and I am a big fan of seeing what people come up with. When it comes to hockey edits I salute my hat every single time. You need to think about the perfect song, the footage to pick from, think of the nerative. So, in order to show my appriciation, and to tell you some of my too detaled thoughts about it, I present to you this fic rec.
I put a link to every one of the videos, but in order to put them all in this one long post I didnât use reblog. I hope that you still enter the links and read what I had to say about them.
enjoy!
General
-When you touch me like this
What can I say, sometimes you just want to see players beating the shit out of each other while a romantic song is played in the background. Other than that, I love the disonance between the song and the vibe of it and the visual content. It crack me every time.
-Nhl as Vines
I just love how people have the time and energy to think about those sorts of compilations. There are a few good ones in here, but if I have to choose the highlight one it would be the TK/Nolan Patrick one.
-Mine
This is just plain cute and fluffy. It got a number of pairs with cute moments with the song âmineâ in the background.
-Vine compilations part 2
Once again, there are some good ones in here, in the highlight I would put the Quinn Hughes one the the FCC line one.
-Vine compilations part 1Â
This is also really good.Â
-Hockey Players being in Love with Each Other
Itâs basically what the headline says.
-Yet another NHL vines
This one as well has some good stuff in it.
-I like Big Boys
This was the first ever edit about the song that I have seen. And Iâve rewatched it a thounsand of times.
-Bad Blood
This is the way to advertize the league.
-Total eclipse of the heart
I always liked bloopers reels. (when I was young they used to show those clips in so many birthday parties. Plus I really likes to laugh). And the combination of the song with the visual espect itâs just precious.
-The leagus as vines
This one has some good ones as well.
-Vines
This one has some good ones as well. But I would like to refer you to the last clip. It got such a vibe of its own. I really want to read a fic about the double night hang out of the Switzerland boys and their afore-mentioned boyfriends. I really want to read about it.
Chicago Blackhawks
-Crack Video
The highlight here I think is the John Mulaney one and the Let it Be one.
-Mean Girls
This is a perfect edit. I think that the charachtarization is accurate.
-I like big boys
I liked all the edits of this song in all of its variety.
Patrick Kane
-I want watch the world burn
As a continuation of the mean girl verse, this is from the musical. I really liked the atmosphere.
Patrick Kane/Jonathan Toews
-Sabotage
I just like the song and the pictures.
-Forever Young
I think that everyone loves nostalgia and in general we like to focus on the glamorous espects of our lives. We love the glory days and not the decline afterwards. So something about this song with those two just struck me inside so much. I lost the amount of times that I would just watch this video in loops. Plus, the fact that they are the last of a certain era of the team didnât help.
-This clock never seemed so alive
Every pairing needs a sappy montage with a cute song.Â
Dallas Stars
-Dallas Stars as FRIENDS
Amazing, whatâs not to like about it. Friends opening sequence, but with the Dallas Stars.
-Dallas as Vines
This is seriously accurate to the core and just fun.
-Another Dallas as VinesÂ
This is also funny as hell, and I think that the âwatch the light Kevinâ is the most funny one.
-Dallas Vines
When it comes to Dallas there were a lot of vines edits that spoke to my sole, and this one was no exception. I can literally quote the whole video now.
-Dallas as Vine
This one right here is one of the legendery edits of the Dallas Stars. The accuracy is just funny and hurt. I watched it so many times.
-Dallas Vines once again
I donât know why, but I just love all the edits about the FCC line and the power play vs. penarlty kill that just do it for me.
Daryl Reaugh
-Calls
This is an out of context greatest calls of him. There are some great ones in here, but the âdouble bennetrationâ is living rent free in my mind.
Michael Ruffl (& Matthew Tkackuk)
-Take a hit
I just love the song along with the grittiness of the two of them. I didnât know the song before, so it also introduce me to a great song. This playoff series was a great fun, and I enjoyed watching this edit come out of it.
Tyler Seguin
-Tyler Seguin as Vine
The funniest part was that it wasnât even intentional.
-Or Nah
Tyler Seguin needs a sexy edit.
-Sexy as fuck
Sometimes a person needs more than one sexy edit about them.
Tyler Seguin & Jamie Benn
-What do you mean?
A short vine about them.
Jason Dickinson
-I got it from my daddy
I always thought about how he looked too similar to Tyler. This video is not wrong.
New York Islanders & New York Rangers
-Game Recap
Thatâs some funny and accurate game recap.
Philadelphia Flyers
-You want a guy thatâs sweet
I love it when people do this sort of edit to a group with the Bo Burnham song. And she literally nailed with the discription of every single one.
-Results of Group Chat Questions
This is exactly what the headlight says.
-Mean GirlsÂ
I always love the mean girls edits with hockey players.
-Man, I feel like a woman
There should be no reason for this song to work this good with the promotional clip.
-Rickey Thompsons edit
They are funny, but the first one is just hilarious.
Claude Giroux
-Take it off my shoulders
The edit is good. But also I had to put it here, because if you read the rest of the post you will see how she posted a primer of Claude Giroux. And when I mean a primer I mean a detailed book, including pictures. about each and every stage of his career. This is unreal with how much this is good an an awsome reading. I will recommend it to everyone who is listening.
-Claude Giroux as Vine
It short but itâs literally what he did.
-Youâre the last of the real ones
This song just capsulate perfectly how we as fans sees him and his departure from the team. Players are humans, but sometimes we as fans see them as so much more, and we see them as those unatainable. However, at the same time they help us with ours lives. And I just think that she did such a good job with this song, and how she poposefully picked the upbit parts with the happy footage of Claude. Because thatâs what itâs was all about, and he loved this team, and gave it his all.Â
She mentioned it in her post, but also the fact that he was the last remaining peace of the old Flyers team, made him the last one. So with him gone, itâs literally not the same Flyers team anymore. And as a relatively new fan of the sport, recently is the faze where I need to deal with this phenomenon for the fist time.Â
-I think Iâve seen this film before
And if the last vidoe showed the upbeat part of Claude Giroux, with this one she just hit me in the feeling. Claude went through the Flyers trading their captain, heâs been through the Flyers not knowing if theyâd make a mistake to name him captain after what happend with Richards. But Claude showed them and to anyone who doubted him, how it was the right choice. And to see how it all just forgotten and they traded him regardless how he wanted to stay in this team for the rest of his career.
The lyrics that stood the most to me were âWho am I defending now?â because it showed perfectly how on one hand he capsulated this team and its image so much that when you think about the Philadelphia Flyers, you think about Claude Giroux. But on the other hand, now he no longer is part of the team. And the fact that he didnât even have a cup to show for all those years, kind of put you on this inbetween place where you donât know how to think about this team, this city that yo gave your life to it. That yo literally built your adult life in, and now you just need to leave and move on. Whether you want to or not.
-Donât take the money
this one is also on the more upbeat videos, but I really like the verse with the âWhile we fightâ. Beacuse it really shows the relathionship between Claude and management. Plus the song brings up the constant scale (that we as fans like to forger sometimes) between âThis is the team, and this is how fun they areâ to âHockey is a besnuess and we need to look at the numbers, regardless of the playerâ.
-Nothing New
And if all the other Claude Giroux videos gave me feelings, this one is the one that made me ugly cry more times than I could count on.
This video is just amazing. It shows how the cycle is always reapiting itself, sometimes itâs abrupt and sometime it takes some time, but in the end it always repeats itself; It also show how as players grow old their place in the legue, in their team, gets questioned time and time again. Despite the fact that they could still be producing, or can have an integral part of the team. And especially when it came to Claude Giroux, itâs really showed how despite him wanting to stay, it didnât matter. and the fact that the team as a whole had a meltdown didnât matter, it was easy to blame it on the captain.
And on a more personal note. I didnât heard this song before. And it wrecked me to hear it, especially the part about âHow can a person know everything at 18, but nothing at 22?â I mentioned it on a different fic rec, but I enlisted to the army of my country when I was 18. And in highschool I was very optimistic about this and thought that I knew I it would go. But after I enlisted I found out it was nothing like I imagined it to be. So last year, as I literally was 22 and had to figure out my life after the worst 3 years of my llife, this song just hit me in the feelings. I know that you didnât really sign up for this rambling, but I had to talk about it, because thatâs why this edit have a special place in my heart. Because itâs not just the nerative and the emotional song that hit me.
Travis Konecny
-Donât you want to?
I just really love the family dinamic in this edit. I could and have seen this video on loops on end.
-I like big boys
I really liked the twist in this edit.
Pittsburgh Penguins
-Penguins as Vines
This is the first part of the Penguins ones. All of her edits are so good.
-Pittsburgh as Vines
This is just plain funny and so put together. But the careless whisper one (and the first clip) just wrecked me.
Sidney Crosby
-Compilation of Crosbyâs high pitch voice
Sometimes you just need to hear a compilation of someone high pitched voice and laugh.
-Look what you made me do
This is absolutely amazing. And out of all the players I think that Sidney Crosby is the perfect example for this song. Especially for how his attitude with the media and in general changed through the years. Canât count the amount of times I watched it.
Toronto Maple Leafs
-Learn the Alphabet
Itâs just hilarious. I love out-of-context footage.
-First Time
Sometimes when the pain is strong enough, you just need to laugh about it.
Mitch Marner/Auston Matthews
-Thunder (credit to @sunshinemitch)
This video is so good. Itâs the perfect song. It got the right hype to it, but also when you think about it it shows how lighning and thunder are always together and you canât have the one without the other. And I think she showed it really well at the video, especially with the line âI was lightning before the thunderâ. I also love how she showed the fact that one of them came before the other, but in general how they came at the same time.
Washington Capitals
-Caps+ John Mulaney quotes
Itâs just funny, and if I had to pick the highlight I would choose the Tom Wilson part.
Nicklas Backstrom
-Fan Cam
Everybody need some appreciation with a mood song.
Nicklas Backstorm/Alexander Ovenchkin
-Youâre 36
Thatâs just funny and short.
Those are all the post I had saved. Iâm about to do another one (it will be shorter) about the vidoes I have saved on youtube).

as a Caps and Pens fan, every single game has become a nail biting, anxiety experience. Might need a hockey break.

The main reason NHL goalies have face cages on their masks is to keep them healthy; otherwise their teammates would open mouth kiss them with tongue after every win, and the spread of germs would get out of control.

something about how trades really do affect players. how it's not just us as fans being crazy or reading too much into it. it's real and it's painful. erik johnson has lacked the hutzpah he once had ever since leaving colorado, as if he could bear landeskog's injury but the second he was forced to leave it all came crashing down. sidney crosby has lost much of the joy he once carried and it's because he had the human, golden embodiment of that joy in jake guentzel torn away from him when he needed it most. dylan larkin shed genuine, heartfelt, distraught tears when tyler bertuzzi was traded away. the penguins still welcome marc-andre fleury to pittsburgh every time he plays there because, no matter where he is, that is his home. pk subban could never return to the same player he was after he was taken from price. trevor zegras is seemingly incomplete without drysdale at his side. brandon duhaime is lacking his connor dewar. bowen byram no longer has his alex newhook to lean on and laugh with. travis koneckny and nolan patrick may never even get the chance to play another game with or against one another. and who could imagine kuznetsov as anyone but a capital? do you really think of pavelski in the green of the stars or do you see him proud in teal beside thornton and marleau? did shea weber ever really stop being a nashville predator? and what about beauvillier, horvat, compher, dumolin, burakovsky, kadri, yamamoto, hornqvist, eberle, o'rielly, barrie, jost, gaudreau, karlsson, carter and richards, martin, and so many others? even wayne gretzky himself went to three teams post trade, searching for that spark he had in edmonton after they made him leave. jagr had eight after pittsburgh. you are not crazy for grieving, in some small way, a player you lost. and they aren't crazy for feeling distraught either. these teams are family. and family is everything, even if it gets ripped apart so easily.
