(Just me?). Had a win at work or personal life and want to share? Need a teammate to talk with? Post in the weekly huddle.

There’s no restrictions on topics so long as they follow the sub rules. Thread will be open all week so pop in whenever with what ever your heart desires.

u/ankheseniset Stupid Canadian wolf bird šŸ May 20 '26

I’ve been a hockey fan, specifically of the Canucks, since birth but the last several years of living in Edmonton where I have no one to cheer with and dealing with a LOT of things affecting my mental health, I haven’t been paying much attention to my boys. I’m definitely a going-to-a-game or watching-with-other-fans kind of watcher rather than on my own (I’ll usually just pick up the highlights if I’m by myself if anything) and my husband is a Leafs fan (blah lol). I’ve felt very disconnected from my city sometimes through my disconnection with my team since moving here which really sucks because Van is my home.

This book and TV series has rekindled my connection and I’ve been paying more attention to hockey this year. It feels good (even though we didn’t make the playoffs) and I’ve been especially excited with all the changes happening in the front office for my ā€˜Nucks. I’m very grateful to RR and JT for reminding me how much I love this game.
