Chapter 1: Intro
Chapter Text
Ok So this is my first ever ao3 post or anything and really my first time posting any sort of fanfiction so go easy on me. This is a women in the nhl au. i’m starting with the “Women of the NHL” group chat because i feel like it’s more tame and also gets you a chance to see like who are women in this. I may write other fics in this universe at some point but bear with me cause like i said im new to this.
I wanted this to be a universe that is at least semi- realistic. (That being said, as a PWHL fan, please forget that and its players exist for the purpose of this writing) So there will be. men that don’t support women in the league, sexism, homophobia, and that is also why it is less a split league but rather the women are kinda few and far between. not all teams have women because i picked who felt right and if i couldn’t think of someone on that team then🤷
This Chapter is intro stuff obviously and im gonna list everyone’s names and usernames. i wanted to write a chapter of the actual gc where they introduced themselves to the rookies who were added but i couldn’t think of a fun way to do it.
I am also posting this 2 days after the tragic loss of Johnny And Matthew Gaudreau. it will be semi included in the first chapter but not a plot line cause i feel like it’s disrespectful and it makes me sad.

Chapter Text
“Women of the NHL”
Brinds: So I had asked Claude about this before and she said it was a good idea. But I was hoping for a briefing on who to watch out for. KJ said I would need it. And also I need the distraction rn.
Celly: omg yeah me too.
Marns: Yes fs. you guys will both need it. how about a overview of each team (if they have anyone you need to watch out for) for you guys.
Boqvy: how about us who are on new teams?
Marns: omg you guys too.
Marns: first tho rookies. we must brief you on the rules to this. this gc has rules to help protect each other. if something happens to you on the ice: someone says something, touches you in an uncomfortable non-hockey way, or threatens you, you tell the group. you don’t have to go into detail if you’re uncomfortable but you have to say something. Even if it’s someone’s captain, teammate, brother, best friend, even boyfriend. it’s how we help each other.
Celly: that’s fair.
G: this is a good time for this talk. Camp is coming fast.
G: I just heard from KJ, who said her, Monny, Hanny, and Larks are gonna sit this one out but i got some info from her and Noah on the jackets and the knights for you guys so you’re prepared.
Brinds: okay.
G: i guess i’ll just start with the jackets, then the golden knights and then i can tell you guys about the Sens.
G: KJ says Gudbranson will be your #1 protector out there. Voronkov will too but you may have to let him know if something happened because his English is terrible and he doesn’t know what guys are saying to you out there. speaking as someone who has also played with him Provorov is a douche. he doesn’t like being on your team but he’ll be quiet about it, he may even stand up for you if needed. more than anything he’s homophobic.
Brinds: yeah Boone gave me a little “ignore provy” talk before my first game last year.
G: Noah said most guys on the Knights are chill but watch out for Stone. He will elbow you square in the face, head down or not.
Celly: noted.
G: The Sens are a rowdy bunch and a few guys lose their filters on the ice but nothing too serious because they know Brady and Me won’t let that slide. We just signed Cousins and i played with him in Philly. he’s quiet when it comes to his own teammates but he will call you names and make inappropriate comments on the ice. i’ll try to put a stop to it but not much works.
Josh: oh great.
Reino: sorry guys:( but i am so glad he’s out of our locker room. he sucks.
Brinds: steering clear of Nick Cousins as much as possible ✍️
G: yes.
G: Bordeleau care to take it away with San Jose?
Bordy: pretty simple really. we have a lack of tough guys so we’re a teeny bit screwed, but they’ll do their best to protect you because you’re a woman but mostly because you’re #1. I’ve also heard cap is taking me being in the locker room a little hard because he likes to talk, but idk him enough because he was hurt all year.
Frosty: yeah he called me a whore and told me i should be in the stands cheering on Joel one of my first years. Couts kicked his ass.
Celly: okay so Logan is not the best captain if you’re a woman got it.
Bordy: just let me know if he says anything to you and i’ll pass it on to the other A’s they’ll handle it.
Celly: okay.
G: alright how about the Ducks?
Zelly: there’s not really anyone I can think of pretty much any guys who were iffy got traded.
Frankie V: yeah we got a good room here. Ryan was iffy himself when we first played against each other back in my good old Bruins days and I punched him and he is a changed man.
Zelly: you scared him into falling in love with you….
Frankie V: 🤷♀️ whatever works?
G: ….anyways Bruins?
Beech: mmmmm not really any problems here. people assume about Marchy but like??? He married Bergy???? He knows better???
Bergy: yeah that was straight crap.
Beech: i’ve heard things about Zadorov but Boes said that was not true.
Boes: also straight crap. literally a gentle giant (off the ice ofc)
Garly: Z is a sweetheart and he just hits people so like watch out?? but like not cause your women but because you’re not on his team.
Brinds: ahhhh. good to know.
Celly: Marchy not a problem.
Bergy: oh he’s a problem. just not to you guys more than any other player.
Celly: lmao that sounds more accurate.
G: okay. Sabres?
Clouder: omg please say there’s nobody bad. i can’t take that on top of the fact the fans already hate me.
Quinner: the fans are stupid if they hate you. and no there isn’t anybody really. there’s a lot of gay or bi guys in our room which i think kinda makes it more open to whatever but like nobody bad really.
JJ: wait why do you think the fans hate you Ryan??
Brinds: yeah what??
Clouder: just like they think i wasn’t worth the prospect you guys traded. and then people started bringing up my brother. saying i probably support him. i hate my brother and hate that people think that about me.
Nuge: they’re idiots if they don’t think you’re an absolute steal.
Celly: Dude i would kill like literally for your speed. that’s worth so much in the league these days.
Clouder: thanks guys🫶🏻
G: okay. no more self doubt in this chat. or i will call you personally Ryan and dissect every aspect of your game and how talented you are until I physically can’t talk anymore.
Clouder: yeah no thanks <3
G: there are no girls on the flames but I can tell you Backlund is pretty against any sexist comments or actions and won’t let anything fly.
Hughesy: LMAO. i heard that i was cackling. he texted Kev when he got traded there and gave him his little welcome speech followed by a long ass “we will tolerate no sexism, racism, or homophobia in this room or i will personally ship you to the KHL” and Kev just responded with “my girlfriend was my teammate pre trade and i like men too” and Backlund was like 👁️👄👁️
G: of course he was.
E-Rod: watch out for Lomberg. he’s mostly all talk but if you get even slightly physical he’ll take the opportunity to jump you.
Reino: watched him do it all year last year, to men and women.
G: he’s a little pest. Carolina?
Josty: omg yayyy i wanna know about my new team.
Drurs: Not much to tell fortunately. Svech will probably flirt with you just hard core shut it down one time and he’ll never bother you like that again. Martinook will protect you on the ice. Same with Burnzy.
Drurs: Brendan Lemiuex is a piece of shit. He’s homophobic and sexist and not shy about it. Staal tries to stop it but the management will not get rid of the bitch.
Josty: oh lovely.
Drurs: watch out for him on the ice fr. he has pinned me to the boards during a scrimmage and just held me there while he laughed. Burnzy almost killed him.
Brinds: okay…..that’s terrifying.
Drurs: it was last year during camp. and he hasn’t put his hands on me again. so i’m sure there were some serious threats after that.
G: one more act like that and he better be gone.
Drurs: this one goes without saying pretty much. idk if anyone will sign him anyway but if they do WATCH OUT FOR TONY DEANGELO. he will grab you and threaten you. he’s worse than Lemieux somehow.
Drurs: so glad he’s gone.
Celly: praying no one signs him.
G: we all are kid. Chicago?
Bedsy: fliggy and murph are very protective and they will fight the whole league if they gotta. Jonesy and Hallsy will hop in too if needed. Vlas fought approximately 2 times and both were in Lukas’ honor and he got his ass kicked both times.
Reichs: 6’7” does not mean you can fight🙄
Bert: LMAOOO
Turbo: sounds like Sebastian
Bedsy: at least he tried???
Reich: and then whined his nose hurt for days😐
Bert: okay so Alex is not allowed to fight this season got it.
G: Colorado yall got anybody?
Rosco: honestly no??
Woody: Val made me uncomfy as hell but i don’t think he’ll be back honestly.
Jo: i can’t imagine they give him ANOTHER chance but who knows? Manson gets like a weird rep but he’s not like that protective of his team honestly.
Celly: that’s not a bad thing.
Jo: not at all.
G: Dallas?
Seggy: oh boy here we go. Jamie gets a rep too. idk why we’re together. he respects women. Roope too? like have yall seen the man??? he’s very gay??? he’s one of the girls???
Wyjo: he’s just a bitch on the ice that’s why.
Robo: no lies detected.
Seggy: We just got Lyubushkin and Dumba. Dumba isn’t really a problem for the girls or anything it’s more the whole keep your head up and avoid him on the ice cause he’ll elbow you thing. Lyubushkin is a piece of shit. he’s sexist and openly homophobic so like ignore anything he says to you.
Celly: yuck.
Seggy: agreed. hoping he doesn’t last.
Marns: omg i hate Lyubushkin.
G: everybody hates him. Kaner care to share about Detroit?
Kaner: ofc ofc. nobody really bad honestly. JT is with Tyson so like he knows better and our captain is a woman so there hasn’t been any issues since i got here.
Drys: yeah i’ve heard they all respect Larks like an insane amount in there.
Kaner: she’s a respectable captain and person of course they do.
G: Edmonton?
Nuge: Corey.
Davo: Perry.
Marns: that pretty much sums it up.
Nuge: he’s kinda openly disgusted with the fact Davo is captain which like???
Brinds: she’s connor mcdavid???
Nuge: RIGHT??? like stfu. he’ll talk shit on the ice and stuff but honestly he may be worse when he’s in our own locker room.
Celly: sorry :(
Davo: not anyone’s fault but his kid.
G: Panthers?
Reino: it’s honestly quiet here without Lomberg or Cousins. they caused most of the problems. our favorite rat is kinda insane but also dating McJesus so he knows better.
Davo: 🙄
Brinds: oh????
Reino: we can talk about them later…
E-Rod: Barky runs a tight ship because he wants to be a good captain (he’s a great one) so he doesn’t let that shit fly.
Boqvy: that’s good to know:)
G: LA?
Turcs: there are rumors about Doughty but I haven’t seen anything since i’ve been here
Q: oh those were so false. he almost killed PLD when he said something homophobic to J Hughes and then said something sexist to Lukey all in one game.
Hughesy: i hate PLD. good luck washington.
Sunshine: i’ll make him my bitch in five seconds flat.
Q: i believe it. other than him nobody else really.
G: Minnesota?
Flower: nobody. the boys here got respect and go to battle for me nightly. open room when it comes to sexuality and stuff too. we had the Dewey’s for years cmon.
Celly: I knew they were too close to be friends.
G: oh child the whole world knew that. Montreal??
Cauf: everybody here is great honestly. i am dating el capitano and half our team is gay pretty much so he prioritizes everybody respecting each other 🫡
Marns: atta boy nick🫡
Newy: i love nick he’s so captain🫡
G: anyway…. Nashville?
Vange: only been there a year so if i miss anyone give me a break, but everyone’s pretty awesome. and if there is a problem i’ll tell Josi . he made me promise i would at the beginning of the season.
G: Jersey?
Haula: the guys from last season are great. i’ve heard things about a certain new person? Brendan Dillon.
J-Mo: omg yeah. nothing too bad he just talks outta his ass constantly. on ice especially. he’s gotten better with time. just get on his ass if he starts again.
Hughesy: Erik will get his ass.
Merc: she’s scary when she goes all mama bear.😧
G: good. isles?
Bo: not that i can think of??
G: Rangers?
Lindy: Rempe. he talked a lot of shit and said some shit to baby hughesy plus KJ at the end of this past season. give me a few months and i’ll try to straighten him out. other than that keep your head up cause we all saw what he can do to a very large man soooo…..
Brinds: understood.🫡
G: Philly?
Foery: we got a good room. G started it. Couts and Laughts and TK have kept it that way.
Frosty: yeah and now EJ is here and we’ve already seen protective EJ jump out once or twice.
Drys: 10/10 great experience
G: Couts and Laughts knew i would kill them if they didn’t care for you fools. Pitt?
Gravy: no complaints. sid doesn’t let that shit slide.
Tanger: yeah it’s been good for years no changing that now.
Tito: that’s good to hear.
Tanger: you’ll fit in fine trust me.
G: Schwartzy what’s seattle looking like?
Schwartzy: theirs talk about Vince but i’ve put up with that little shit since he was a rookie, he’s fine. watch out in the ice though he doesn’t hold back.
Celly: wouldn’t expect most guys to.
Schwartzy: they dont trust me.
G: Blues?
Robby: 0 complaints schenner wouldn’t let anything happen. it’s the house that Jaden Built honestly.
Schwartzy: i miss you guys☹️
Colts: mom☹️
Jakey: i didn’t even play with you and i miss you
Schwartzy: ☹️
G: anyhoo, there isn’t really anyone on tampa really. Toronto?
Marns: watch out for Reavo and Benny.
Marns: not a woman thing just an enforcer thing.
JT: agreed.
Bert: watch out for Max she’s feral.
Domes: smd
Bert: gladly 🤤
JT: please stop you two✋
G: Utah?
Cools: nah everybody here is chill. we haven’t gotten a lot of new guys. Marino ig?
Gravy: my bf. he’s a huge dummy. absolutely harmless. we saw him fight miller in the line brawl✋
Lindy: that was a little sad.
Gravy: oh i know.
Cools: okay banned from fighting got it.
Brinds: rip Marino. banned from fighting by a practical rookie.
G: okay next, Van?
Boes: everybody is harmless here. except mysie. but like just physically because he’s massive. no sexism here.
Garly: yeah no issues.
G: Washington?
Backy: Ovi is presumed homophobic but i promise he’s not. the pride tape thing is so he can go home and see his family since he’s so well known in Russia and it’s illegal.
Sunshine: everyone is basically some flavor of gay or at least acts it.
G: whatever you say sonny. And Jets?
J-Mo: Mark says stuff sometimes that’s ehhh but i’ve pretty much stopped that entirely years ago.
Brinds: okay i think i’ve put everyone to look out for in my notes app.
Celly: same here.
G: good. it’s sad we have to do this. but we don’t want you guys getting hurt or traumatized when you’re just trying to play your game.
Brinds: thanks claude❤️
Celly: thanks everyone❤️
G: anytime rookies❤️

Celly: Yes! I’m moving in with the Thortons. Joes super nice. And Will is moving in with the Marleau’s and they live close😁
Bergy: that’s good. Jumbo is great.
Bordy: i know Joe only lives like 5 minutes from me🤭
Celly: yaayyy.
Brinds: i’m gonna move in with KJ probably. I’m not sure if i’ll get sent down at all so it’ll be easier to just stay with her.
Celly: they’re not gonna send you down be fr✋🙄
Brinds: you’re gonna jinx me stfu.
Bergy: having a roommate will be good for you.
Marns: ahhh roommates a wonderful thing.
Foery: not if your roommate is Joel Farabee and he almost burns the condo down once a day💀
G: why would anyone let you live with Joel?
Frosty: i tried to warn her.
Marns: morgan do you not live with Joel??
Frosty: I do now. not at the beginning of the season. i needed my own space and was too lazy to move all my shit.
Sunshine: fair.
Sunshine: and a reminder i had the worst roomy of them all…
Drys: thank you for your service sonny🫡
Drys: you scarred trevor so bad he has been 10 times more behaved since.
Sunshine: ofc ofc
Josty: i’m dating both my former roomies soooo… i’d say i’m on team roommates.
Hughesy: IM TEAM ABOLISH ROOMMATES

Celly: ?
Fleury: ahhhhh. rookies are gonna meet 3rd throuple.
Celly: YOUR BROTHER, HISCHIER, AND BASTIAN ARE THE THIRD THROUPLE????
Brinds: wait jacks gay??
Hughesy: Brinds buddy…….
Ully: i think that one was obvious to anyone with eyes.
Brinds: 💀oops?
G: dare i ask what was so bad about your brother having his boyfriends over?? and why you’re still hung up on it months later??
Hughesy: oh i’ll tell you all right.
J-Mo: without traumatizing everyone here please luke?
Hughesy: SOMEHOW JACK MAGICALLY FORGOT I EXISTED OR SOMETHING. AND SO DID NATE AND NICO AND THEY STARTED FUCKING. LIKE REALLY LOUDLY WHILE I WAS ACROSS THE HALL. I HAD TO FLEE MY OWN BEDROOM BECAUSE OF THEM. I WENT TO KEVS AND HE THOUGHT IT WAS HILARIOUS
Celly: yikes
Vange: yeah maybe Jack is a terrible roommate.
Hughesy: I HEARD EVERYTHING. NATE SAID THE MOST FILTHY STUFF I DID NOT NEED TO KNOW. I CAN NEVER UNHEAR THAT.
Turcs: lmaooo
Josh: nobody would like more information on what those three get up to thanks✋
G: yeah no.
JT: i’ve heard too much already.
Clouder: nate was like my big brother for the past almost 10 years please stop✋
Merc: prudes. i wanted to know.
Hughesy: Merc you need therapy.
Merc: i share a locker room with all 3 of them. let a girl dream🙄
Hughesy: about my brother??? no.
Kaner: idek what to say about all this.
Drury: i do. wtf
Robby: Luke why don’t you get your own place.
Hughesy: well first it was because it was my rookie year and it just seemed right to be with my brother. then i was gonna move in with Kev this upcoming season but he got traded and now im just upset.
Merc: we could move in together??
Hughesy: Merc do not fuck with me rn….
Merc: serious suggestion buddy.
Hughesy: OMG YES PLEASE
Merc: I’ll start looking for a good place for both of us.
Hughesy: i love you🫶🏻
Bergy: perfect now we don’t have to hear you complain about Jack anymore. problem solved.
Wyjo: omg yaayyyy. i’ll bring you guys a house warming gift when we play in Jersey
Hughesy: yknow we’re both about to make not work friendly comments about how your cute ass is all the gift we need correct??
Merc: 🤤
Wyjo: 😉😘
G: what did we say about flirting you fools?
Drys: telling Kevin on you Luke✋
Hughesy: we have a threesome list buddy. Wyatt is on it he’d be so down.
Wyjo: 😳…. anybody else sweating??
Bergy: luke….what the hell?
Hughesy: the rest of that list will be kept private for now🤭
Tanger: omfg this kid….
Notes:
I’m imagining Luke and Kevin are both Bi so like they’re extremely chaotic and down for threesomes with like half the league but still like extremely committed to each other yknow🤭 I’m working on the story of how they came to be currently I’ll try to post it within the next week or so.

Tanger: NO OLD PEOPLE SHAMING
Bergy: Mitch we’ve talked about this.
JT: ….im not even as old as you guys.
Bergy: really JT not you too.
Woody: i feel like it was common knowledge that the kids as the dev program and umich were all a little freaky?
Domes: and i think being on the devils screwed up your judgement miles✋
Gravy: so so many things i can never unsee or unhear
Merc: at least you weren’t here for Kevin and Luke this year????
Gravy: no but me you and woody all had to witness the shit show that was Nate, Jack, and Nico figuring their shit out.

Davo: morgan wtf?
Zelly: I AM NOT POCKET SIZED
Colts: yes you are.
Gravy: yes you are.
Wyjo: i fear my much smaller, bite sized, friend here needs some defense. Neither of you get an opinion because you’re both obscenely tall.

Boes: i hate you.
Garly: 😘
Hughesy: i think you better not. i’d like quinn to act slightly sane at dinner thanks.
Clouder: you’re gonna need like 10+ years of therapy before that man acts sane.
Robo: i’m convinced he sees ghosts or something
Tanger: heyyy that’s what we say about Gravy.
Merc: awwww some things never change❤️❤️❤️
Gravy: fuck both of you
Merc: i mean im down but i don’t wanna hurt Johnnys feelings.
Gravy: 🖕
Notes:

Chapter Text
“Women of the NHL”
KJ: SUCK IT FLIGHTLESS BIRDS
KJ: sorry that was uncalled for.
KJ: i ate a lot of sugar tonight.
Gravy: ummmm okay then…
Tito: you are insane.
KJ: i’ve been called worse.
Bordy: probably by me.
KJ: definitely by you.
Tanger: i was not expecting a “flightless bird” text while laying in bed ill
KJ: sorry 😞
Monny: is jarry like…okay??
Gravy: idrk at this point hoping he shakes it off.
Gravy: but we all didn’t show up tonight
Tito: and we’re all apparently on the trade block. like everyone. EVERYONE BUT SID. which like obviously. but not geno? not tanger? not doc? not rusty?
Tanger: yeah crazy move by dubas.
Marns: average Dubas moment honestly.
Marns: also did i happen to see a certain baby blue jacket or two back on the ice??
Brinds: YESSSS. IM CONDITIONING DOWN IN CLEVELAND BUT OFFICIALLY OFF IR.
KJ: still rehabbing but back on the ice and oh does that feel good.
G: glad you guys are doing better.
G: Av’s you guys got some people back today?
Rosco: my lover played hockey today😁 (i did not😭🔫)
Woody: back before you know it bby😘
Jo: good to be on the ice again. not so good to get spanked by the caps.
Sunshine: damn there was spanking and i couldn’t even play?😞
Backy: enough out of you.
Jo: we also got Val back…
Bergy: how’d that blow over?
Jo: he was fine and everything.
Jo: i just like feel like such an asshole for like not wanting him here. like he’s a good player and a half decent person at least.
Jo: and i feel guilty because like addiction and stuff is a real struggle but i just don’t want a teammate that flakes on the team when it’s most important twice and can never truly be trusted again.
G: i don’t think you should feel guilty about that. it was a bold choice by your staff bringing him back in after this happened twice. you do not have to agree with it.
Bergy: you’re completely right that you should feel like you can trust your teammates. you want reliable people willing to go to battle for you every game. not disappear when the team needs them most.
Jo: thanks guys❤️
JJ: may i now break up this serious discussion to show my distaste in the silly things ryan said about not being good enough at the beginning of this season because GOD DAMN
Flower: it is always a good time to say something like that😊
Clouder: i’m playing fine the team is playing well.
Quinner: do you want me to attack you. i know what hotel number yours is.
Clouder: 😧
Schwartzy: what did we say about threatening people with violence?
Quinner: fine. clouder, i’m gonna kill you with the power of friendship.
Schwartzy: that’s better.
Marns: in other, more positive and less uncomfy return news:
Marns: we now have a real life viking on the blue line.
Seggy: JANIIIIIIII
JT: he was intimidating for five seconds and then i realized he was a huge nerd.
Robo: so real.
Wyjo: awwwww i miss our finnish dilf☹️
JT: …
G: …
Marns: … dare i say real?
Jakey: yes you dare say it. cause mmmmhhhmmmm.
G: you’re all insane.
Marns: ehhhhh
Celly: wyatt??? i didn’t think you were particularly into dilfs??
Wyjo: oh i see how it is you little shit.
Seggy: see how what is my sweet flower child??🤨🤨
Drys: yeah johnny share with the class.
Wyjo: ugghhhhhh.fine.
Celly: i was kidding you don’t have to actually tell them.
Wyjo: not it’s fine i’ve been meaning to get it over with.
G: you sure?
Wyjo: yeah.
Wyjo: basically, after the shootout win against SJ me and Delly were talking and he might have sort of kissed me. multiple times.
Robo: I KNEW YOU TWO WERE IN LOVE WITH EACH OTHER
Wyjo: okay well we’re both a little slow but we got there eventually.
Wyjo: anyway things might have gotten a little more…heated.
Celly: in a supply closet.
Wyjo: shut up. anyways in barges Will Smith. looking for stick tape.
Wyjo: they were about to get on a damn plane so who knows why he needed that.
Bordy: he’s strange.
Wyjo: anyhoo, delly swore him to secrecy until we figured our shit out and then he totally went back to SJ and told mack. and joe thorton and patrick marleau?
Celly: in his defense it was a panicked accident and joe and patrick were just real confused. and then jumped into talk about how you were a really good skater and forgot about everything else.
Wyjo: 💀
Robo: and did you guys “figure your shit out”?
Wyjo: we’re trying the long distance thing.
Beech: it’s really not the most difficult thing if you both put the effort in.
Ully: yeah it’s been honestly okay so far.
Drys: same here
Clouder: i miss Ev a lot but same.
Wyjo: we’re gonna do our best
Bordy: also like…
Bordy: a little trip to SJ on an off weekend for a “girls weekend” would not be a bad way to spend time together if you’re not ready to spill to everyone yet.
Wyjo: i love you thomas.
Bordy: i get that a lot💁♀️
KJ: yourself in the mirror does not count.
Sunshine: SHOTS FIRED
G: i will kick you both out if you start fighting.
Zelly: bad time to say holy comeback?
Kaner: yes
Larks: yes
Frankie V: nope it’s the perfect time.
Hughesy: Boyfriend W. (he did not do shit)
Vange: 😁🔫
Merc: losing to the flames is not that deep Vange i promise.
Vange: it is when we suck rn.
Cools: they could never make me like you William Karlsson.
Hanny: W Willy.
Cools: no☹️
Hanny: good night salt lake city.
Cools: screw you.
Cools: that was mean.
Cools: goodnight.
Notes:
I HAD to add Wyjo and Delly ship because they’re so special to me and i miss them. projecting my own feelings on Val Nichushkin onto Jo. i don’t wanna be mean or anything but i think it is a bad idea on the Avs part.
Anyways like always come chat on tumblr kentjohnson91

Chapter Text
“Woman of the NHL”
Drurs: god damn it Lou
Sonny: pardon?
Bo: I still have confidence in this team but lowkey
Bo: someone get me off the island
Seggy: okay so we’re talking about Lou as in scary Isles GM Lou
Clouder: oh my god ew ew ew
Clouder: i just saw
Clouder: I thought we got rid of him
Bergy: someone share with the class I'm about to go into an appointment and cannot look up the Islanders right now
Bo: tony deangelo.
Bergy: oh, why Lou why??
Lindy: matter of fact get me out of the Metro
Backy: everyone calm down.
Backy: I know everyone in this group can hold their own and has teammates who will protect them if needed
Bo: maybe i’ll just take one for the team (this team not the Isles) and kill him before he hits the ice
G: yeah let’s save that as a last resort
Frosty: Drury how you feeling about this??
Drurs: scared. he usually left me alone because leadership threatened his position on the team if he did or said anything to me but he’s on the other side of the ice now
Bo: yeah and not to put the spirits lower than they already are, something tells me management here cares more about winning than that stuff so not many consequences over here
Gravy: Can we just recruit one goon in the league to put him out of commission
G: whether he’s a dick or not we always promised this chat was not for conspiring against people in the league
Gravy: you literally speared Reavo where the sun don’t shine after he hurt me
G: HE WAS KNEELING ON YOUR SKULL RYAN
G: AND PULLING YOUR HAIR
Marns: i did not need that reminder but i will be aiming for Reavos lower body during practice
JT: mitchell.
Marns: :(
Domes: anyways we already figured out the Deangelo thing after practice cause Connor was sitting in his stall spaced out and shaking like a leaf
Domes: pun fully intended
Brinds: which connor?
Marns: Dewar. he just said some really shitty stuff to him on the ice when he was in Minnesota. Spurgeon and one of the referees even reported it to the league but they didn’t do anything.
Foery: yeah he told me and Yorkie about it when they were hanging out last time we were in Toronto.
G: i didn’t realize they were friends.
Foery: G the four of them have a group chat.
Drys: it’s called the Transformers…
Marns:😭😭😭😭
Marns: LMAOOOOOO
Mack: do i want to know???
Foery: did no one inform the rookies smh??
Brinds: about???
Foery: the trans guys in the league??
Brinds: yeah definitely didn’t hear that.
Mack: who is it?
Foery: just to be clear I’m allowed to tell them right?
Foery: ik cam doesn’t care
Cauf: everyone else knows about the rest it’s not a secret
Foery: Cam York (my wonderful sorta stupid Ginger)
Mack: yknow what that makes more sense
Foery: do i wanna know what he said or did?
Mack: well i saw Jamie in the hall in Philly when they were both out and I was gonna go say hi, but then Cam was leaning all over her whining about something and I heard her say “that time of the month?”
Mack: i thought she was being sarcastic honestly
Drys: but if you had stuck around for about 2 seconds you would have heard him literally start crying
Foery: big baby that one🙄
Turcs: oh yorkie our dramatic king
Foery: take him back?
Cauf: nope he’s yours
Frosty: give him to joel they need each other.
Foery: i just love when our boyfriends leave us for each other😍
Brinds: who are the other ones?
Brinds: actually how many trans guys are there in the league?
Brinds: i don’t want this to sound transphobic or anything but like wouldn’t that be sorta obvious.
Cauf: some of them were when they first started playing
Cauf: also some were blessed with masculine builds like being built like a brick shithouse
Newy: LMAOOOO
Newy: i love arber.
Mack: Xhekaj is trans??
Cauf: yep
Marns: obviously we already mentioned Dewey
Sonny: well your Dewey should come get his other half cause MY dewey is insane
Sonny: within like a week of being here he got drunk and started telling me about how good their sex was.
G: already too much information.
Ully: i think they’re adorable
Flower: connor is adorable.
Flower: brandon is like yappy puppy.
Gravy: the last of the ‘Transformers’ (thank you Slafkovsky for giving them that name🙄) is Johnny btw
Hughesy: COME BACK JOHNNY I MISS YOU
Merc: ^^^^^
Cools: NO WAY
Cools: WE JUST GOT HIM HES OURS
Gravy: …anyways
Tanger: DeAngelo almost caught a stick to the face from Sid the first time we played them after Johnny started playing
Woody: do we want to know what he did?
Gravy: pulled out the deadname.
Marns: that bitch.
Ully: culture confusion what is “deadname”?
G: your name you were born with after you changed it.
Gravy: honestly i only know Johnnys deadname cause i’ve been to their house in Mass and they still have stuff up from when they were kids that has his old name on it
Gravy: he doesn’t care obviously. his parents are great about it.
Tanger: I would love to know how the hell that rat figured it out
Frankie V: stromer was on the team back then. afterwards there was an argument about it in the locker room and it seems like he looked up his parents and found his moms old facebook something or other from like the early facebook days and it said his old name
Lindy: once again save me from the metro
Cauf: if we’re done introducing the young ones to those clowns
Cauf: (they’re actually all great ally’s if you can’t find one of us btw)
Cauf: I HATE HOCKEY
G: okay…
G: well that puts you in a bit of a predicament considering you play professional hockey.
Newy: i know where she’s going with this
Newy: SAVE MONTY
Cauf: I HATE OUR DEFENSE (Not really)
Cauf: I HATE OUR FANS (a little more really)
Larks: yeah 40 saves is a lot to still get blamed
Cauf: and then it’s all “start dobes he’s better” or “we need a real #1 goalie”
Cauf: DOBES IS A ROOKIE AND HES GREAT DONT GET ME WRONG BUT MONTY IS OUR STARTER AND HE PLAYED GREAT HE CANT JUST BAIL US OUT EVERY GAME
Newy: One goal was a power play goal: we take way too many penalties. One goal was a shorthanded goal: LANE FELL DOWN AND LEFT MONTY 1 ON 0
Newy: EVERYONE MAKES MISTAKES ITS NOT LANES FAULT BUT WE MAKE TOO DAMN MANY
Bergy: okay everybody calm down
Bergy: i’m done with my appointment and caught up
Bergy: the important thing is you know it’s not your goalies fault.
Hauls: and maybe talk to Montembeault. make sure he knows you guys feel that way?
Merc: and tell him you're thankful for him. and you love him…
Cauf: 🤨
Hughesy: NO MARKY FOR 4-6 WEEKS😭😭😭😭
Beech: it was not Braz’s fault✋😒
Merc: I DONT CARE WHOSE FAULT IT WAS I WANT HIM BACK
Hughesy: and you guys still couldn’t, i don’t know , win
Beech: Stfu
Merc: you just lost to first line nathan bastian 🫵😭
Woody: my baby 4th liner all grown up🥲
Woody: i practically raised him
Clouder: yknow my brother was also on that line right??
Woody: we don’t speak of him.
Clouder: amen.
Merc: anyway he was clearly fired up after the game, considering Luke showed up at my place
Hughesy: NATE AND NICO LITERALLY HAVE THEIR OWN APARTMENTS THEY DO NOT NEED TO COME TO OUR PLACE
Colts: i thought you were rescuing the poor girl Merc.
Merc: DO YOU KNOW HOW HARD IT IS TO FIND APARTMENTS IN NEW JERSEY
Hughesy: i’ve practically moved in at this point anyway
Hughesy: it was that or i was gonna go to Nate’s, throw all his stuff out the window, and steal his apartment
Merc: we’re taking his couch for sure.
Hughesy: oh yeah.
Gravy: good luck it took: me, Johnny, Nate, Jonas, Dougie, and Kevin like two hours to get that thing into his apartment
Hughesy: so we just take the whole apartment?
Merc: works for me:)
Wyjo: DELLYS HURT
G: where did you just come from?
Robo: she’s been crying all over Roope for an hour…
Wyjo: IM GONNA DIE
Wyjo: HES HURT AND IM IN TEXAS CAUSE WE HAVE A GAME TONIGHT
G: this is the dramatic honeymoon stage of dating another player.
JT: she’ll get over it
Bergy: hopefully fast🙄
Notes:
I had planned on adding the ‘Transformers’ earlier on in the chat but I forgot honestly. They’re very important to me and even though it may feel like I pulled four random players out of a hat, I HAD MY REASONS FOR ALL OF THEM
anyways fuck Tony DeAngelo
AND SOMEONE SAVE SAMUEL MONTEMBEAULT FROM THE HABS DEFENSE AND THEIR FANS (i’m looking at you Mike Matheson)
Chapter 14: Today could NOT get worse
Summary:
Someone in the group got traded, new member of the long distance relationship club, and NateMacK is not ok
Notes:
What in the hell even was today? Tony DeAngelo and then THIS???
Thinking about Jack and Jarvy?? dhmu💔💔💔

DID THE GMS CONSIDER MY FEELINGS??? DID THEY???
Also the Canes posting a fancy graphic for Necas leaving and then the second slide being a singular picture of Jack and the caption only being about Necas… SICKENING

Chapter Text
“Women of the NHL”
G: Frosty are we okay kid?
Frosty: ….
Frosty: i don’t honestly know.
Frosty: ….calgary?
Drys: 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Foery: please don’t leave me.
Beech: at least you have Joel with you??
Clouder: Yeah honestly Brierre cooked with that one.
Foery: NO HE DIDNT
Foery: NO OFFENSE FROSTY BUT I WANT MY ROOMIE BACK
Frosty: sorry tys.
G: Tyson you’re going to be okay. You guys still have your little group there, yeah?
Foery: IM A HYSTERICAL WRECK
Foery: JAMIES BEEN REMINISCING ON BEING TRADED
Foery: CAM HASNT GOTTEN OUT OF BED SINCE
Foery: BOBBY HAS BEEN BLANKLY STARING AT A WALL
Foery: ANDDDDD
Foery: Laughts cried…
G: yeah, i know he called me.
Josty: I don’t know how much this will help but…
Josty: I know Naz and Big Tys and they’re great guys. they’ll take care of you guys in Calgary
Frosty: yeah, EJ said the same thing
Hughesy: Kevin is also there. he’s hurt (fuck you Lauko👀) but when he’s back fs.
Frosty: yeah he already texted me and Joel to welcome us and stuff
Flower: i thought he’d be concussed for sure🤔
Beech: oh Lauks, my problematic king
Hughesy: i will kill your problematic king
Merc: as if Kev isn’t literally also a problematic king
Gravy: hey! don’t talk about my Rookie that way!
Tanger: Bahl was your rookie?💀
Gravy: i don’t wanna hear it✋my bf was your rookie
Bergy: anyways how are you feeling about the trade morgan? they are right you do get to go with your boyfriend at least?
Frosty: honestly i don’t know.
Frosty: it feels good to not be doing this alone but then it’s like…
Frosty: he’s sad. he loves Philly. I do too, so I get it but I don’t know if being traded would hurt more or less without him.
Foery: what was your boy thinking G? like seriously?
G: ok first of all
G: i think you’re too young to be calling Danny “my boy”
G: second this wasn’t really on him.
G: he said they offered Frosty for Kuzmenko and Pelletier and a few picks but Conroy wanted more
G: and asked for Joel specifically
G: then it felt like it was probably for the best so they could stay together
Frosty: well i think it’s bullshit since they’re already talking about resigning me (if things go well) at the end of the season and letting Bee walk
Frosty: then I’ll still be somewhere new. Alone. and Bee will have to find somewhere new. Alone.
Backy: This is the hard part. none of this stuff is ever easy for you guys or for the GMs.
Backy: especially when it’s someone like Brierre who very much knows you guys are together and cares about you and knows G cares about you
Seggy: even if they try not to get emotionally invested, they totally do.
Hughesy: Jack has been talking a whole lot of nonsense about threatening Fitzy into resigning Nater at the end of the year. Nate is the only one trying to talk him off that ledge because I think he’s pretty sure they’ll trade him or let him walk.
Merc: not Bass😔😔
Foery: Cams still crying…
Foery: I literally do not know how to make him stop
Cauf: put on cartoons.
Turcs: literally stole the thoughts from my head.
Foery: ??
Cauf: your bf is an overgrown toddler sometimes. when he’s overly fixated on being upset you put on cartoons and he gets distracted
G: true story. i’ve seen Bee do it to him before.
Foery: …
Foery: i think it worked actually
Frosty: oh cam you simple minded Ginger.
Frosty: i’m gonna miss him
Vange: please stop im literally gonna cry
Wyjo: looked up at Oscar and sighed.
Wyjo: nothing wrong with him, he’s just not Delly.
Seggy: leave our brace face 24year old rookie alone.
Robo: oh Bäcky you strange child
Robo: (that is fs flirting with my boyfriend)
Frosty: LMAOOO
Frosty: imagining Jason watching the rookie flirt with her man is actually really helping rn
Celly: Just hugged Joe and cried for an hour and he is not chronically online so he did not know about the trade and was also really confused as to why i was so upset about “Frosty and that other guy”
Foery: Bee would be honored to be called “that other guy”
Drys: at least you guys won’t be here for the shit show following Michy and Torts yesterday.
Foery: we are just gaining another russian yknow.
Hauls: what happened yesterday. i stayed offline once i heard about the trade. too sad.
Frosty: Michkov and Torts were SCREAMING at each other on the bench
Frosty: i had already been pulled so idk what was said
Foery: idk either but afterwards, even though he really does like both of them, Zamula told me and Cam that when Fedotov was “talking michkov down” in the locker room later
Foery: they were just shit talking Torts and saying he’s an asshole and whatever
Drys: he can be mean but also, and i get there’s a language barrier, Michy is like….not the best listener
G: Unfortunately with coaches like these and players like that it will either work itself out because one of them (hopefully Michkov) gave in or one of them will go (probably Torts no matter what)
Foery: do you know something we don’t Claude 🤨
Colts: Yeah G, i thought your GM Husband didn’t share secrets about their team to you
Woody: 📸🤨
G: you guys are unbelievable
G: and no Danny hasn’t said anything
Drurs: As someone who was just traded in season, the guys (and ladies) were great when i got here
Woody: happy to have you ma’am
Rosco: 🫶🫶🫶
Jo: ^^^
Josty: DONT CARE COME BACK
Josty: sorry that was uncalled for ✊😔
Drys: and as someone traded to your team mid season before, you guys fit well with everyone you’ll be good
Davo: in other news i received the strangest text from a rival captain late last night
Reino: was it barky??? omfg it was barky wasn’t it??
Davo: no.
Davo: Backlund.
G: …why??
Hughesy: sidgwushehsowbxhehejsnwhdb
Hughesy: Kev told him not too, but he did not listen I guess
Davo: advice i guess?
Davo: he hasn’t played with a girl in a while…
Frosty: ………
Frosty: idk whether to be touched or embarrassed.
Davo: it seemed very genuine and Backlunds a pretty cool dude, plus he has a daughter sooo yknow girl power and stuff
KJ: “girl power”
KJ: you sound like Johnny when they brought their daughter to family skate my rookie season and he was all excited about me being a role model for her and whatever
Monny: i’m still her favorite ✋🤨
Frankie V: anyway the west coast is at least warmer than the east???
Frosty: calgary frank.
Frosty: not california.
Frosty: they’ve had more snow than we have this year.
Foery: LMAOOOOOO
Frankie V: i failed Geography don’t talk to me✋😔
Notes:
DEVASTATED FOR CAM, JAMIE, TYSON, AND BOBBY RN
PHILLY FANS ARE CANCELLED BECAUSE WDYM “THEY WERE BOTH MID ANYWAYS”
even if they were they were both very committed to philly and also……… Pelletier is a rookie and have yall seen how inconsistent Kuzy is???
BUT AT LEAST THEYRE TOGETHER????
Also the switch up where Philly fans are saying “Now trade EJ” were yall not celebrating when they resigned him this year for a good veteran presenceANYWAYS if Nate Bastian is NOT a New Jersey Devil come trade deadline/next season Tom Fitzgerald will find me on his doorstep
come chat on tumblr
Chapter 16: Seasonal (trade deadline) Depression
Summary:
Gravy is not okay like at all (sorry), Kevin is insane, Jacks hurt again, trade deadline is the worst time of year, and Tanger is a mother
Notes:
Warning this chapter is strictly depressing because I like anyone who isn’t a sociopath hates this part of hockey and my girl (guy) Ryan Graves may actually be one of the sweetest people who is simply doomed by the narrative (Mike Sullivan and Kyle Dubas and the universe itself)

Chapter Text
“Women of the NHL”
Bedsy: Spencer Knight masterclass :)
Bert: that’s Our Lord and Savior Spencer Knight to you
Reino: I hate that we traded him
Reino: proud of the kid though
Cauf: goat behavior honestly
Cauf: Kinda like my boyfriend putting up a casual 4 points
Newy: Ummmmm let us not graze over the fact that YOU HIT 30 GOALS BITCH
Cauf: :)
Clouder: happy for you but also fuck you guys
Cauf: :(
G: we fumbled bad today
Ully: i need to be better
Josh: *we all need to be better
Josh: hush Ully
Sonny: I just wanna play hockey brooooo
G: are you getting close to a return?
Sonny: i think so but there’s no guarantee they play me
G: soon kid
Q: I for one am not happy for Spencers first game with the hawks
Q: 42 damn shots and we can only get ONE
Turcs: hey do not be mean to my silly, confused former goalie
Q: mb
Merc: jacks hurt again, we got shutout again, had to look at holtzy in a knights jersey again, trade deadline is coming, everybody getting traded, my chest hurts, im gonna cry—
Hauls: deep breath merc
Hughesy: Jack needs to be bubble wrapped because I cant take another season where hes hurt and miserable and Nate and Nico keep giving me sad, pitying looks because I’m stressed out
Hughesy: thats if Nate’s even here come Friday
Merc: dont speak that into existence lil bro :(
G: okay both of you take a deep breath. How serious is Jacks injury looking?
Hughesy: I have no idea they wont tell me anything
Hughesy: and then my idiot gave me a heart attack last night. came off the ice with 1000 messages asking if he was okay
Josty: omg that was so scary
Frosty: yeah really glad hes okay
Bergy: what happened I didn’t see anything?
Frosty: Kevin laid out and blocked a shot but accidentally blocked it with his head from close range
G: oh jesus
JT: is he out again?
Hughesy: doesn’t sound like it.
Hughesy: he said he just had a killer headache
Frosty: yeah he got it to the back of the helmet and had a pressure cut, he came back to the bench tho
G: thats good, scary when that happens
Josty: Slavvo looked like he was gonna cry
Josty: hes the one that shot it
Tito: we never discussed my girl Gravy
Gravy: ?
Seggy: dont act confused babe we all saw the billion social media posts about it
Gravy: omfg i do not want to talk about that
Foery: me neither that game was horrifying
Drys: hush Tys its still important for Ryan
Gravy: no it really isn’t
Marns: why do you seem so upset about it
Gravy: it was one point in 43 games, a secondary assist, i wasn’t on the ice when the puck went in, i was still a minus 2, i sold out our goalie horribly, im still probably getting traded, i got scratched again the next game, and all the posts you saw were memes
Gravy: do you want me to continue
Tanger: nah cause i cant drive and read
Gravy: do not come to my house
Tanger: too late. on my way. so is sid.
Gravy: fuck you.
Gravy: which one of you told johnny to call me?
Hughesy: …..
Gravy: screw you.
Gravy: goodnight.
Hughesy: is she actually mad at me?
Colts: probably not.
Colts: shes just having a tough time.
Wyjo: shes right though
Wyjo: why the hell would sullivan scratch her when she finally got on the board
G: coaches make rash decisions when their team is in a bad position
Tito: I’m worried about her.
Tito: all the defenseman have been hard on themselves but her more than any of them
Tito: She keeps trying to talk with the goalies, apologize for playing bad, usually they listen and tell her its not her fault
Tito: after he got pulled, and his meltdown, and the comeback she tried to talk to Ned and he totally brushed her off and got mean like it was only her fault
Foery: no offense but coming from the other side…
Foery: the defense was bad but so was he
Tito: right exactly
G: tanger’s got her guys
Hughesy: but what happens if shes not with Tanger by Friday?
G: then somebody else will have her because Tanger has connections and so do the rest of us
Lindy: im in colorado. felt like we should discuss that.
Drurs: you are and we’re all very happy about it.
Woody: the ladies are taking over here fr fr
G: how are you doing being away from Adam though
Lindy: still super new but I’m okay
Lindy: i loved being with him there but I was miserable
Lindy: M!ller already pissed me off
Garly: hes an……acquired taste
Lindy: hes a bitch.
Boes: fair enough
Boes: i hate that his success is being used against petey
Boes: he knows hes playing bad. that does NOT mean they traded the “wrong” person
Celly: is deadline time always this messy and depressing (in general but also in the gc)
KJ: its always chaotic but this year more of the girls seem to be in play
KJ: or their bf or someone is in play
KJ: its also always depressing because self doubt or couples being broken up or GM’s being assholes
Celly: that’s……encouraging
Sonny: nothing about deadline time is encouraging i fear
Robby: just read through all the messages i missed and started crying I hate this part of hockey
Larks: same
Bergy: we all do
Notes:
once again sorry this was so sad
I nearly had a heart attack when Kevin took that puck to the head but bro came back like it never happenedcome hang on tumblr
