Figured it was time for a pinned post. So, Hello! This is @mothed-moss ‘s hockey sideblog where it’s truly just a grab bag of everything. My DM’s, asks, all that are open. Come say hi if you’d like! Or not, that’s your prerogative.

My primary NHL teams are the Calgary Flames and the Seattle Kraken. My primary PWHL team is the Toronto Sceptres, but realistically I’m here for fun and the vibes. The Oilers-Flames beef doesn’t really run strong here aside from maybe for The Bit.

More casually, I sometimes watch other teams that compel me if I'm jonesing for a game to watch. Some of these may be:

Edmonton Oilers

Montréal Victoire

Vancouver Canucks

San Jose Sharks (...you guys compel me, I think I may cave)

^^I consider these my "teams in-law." I hold no bad blood, but unfortunately my favs do take precedence.

I’m chronically ill and still recovering from a head injury so I’m not watching games too intensely at the moment due to fatigue and other symptoms but I try to keep up with things the best I can, where I can.

I try to tag team names on all non liveblog posts/reblogs and any relevant players included. Liveblogging typically won't have any other associated tags, with the exception of playoff games. I also try to tag PWHL related posts with #pwhl for my own easy navigation.

#[team] lb <- self explanatory #love thy goalie <- goalieposting <33 #hockey art <- what it says on the tin #a bad case of the offseason blues <- posts about missing hockey/other offseason related posts #visiting my sportsblr neighbours <- non-hockey sports posts #everything wrong with hockey <- posts critiquing the sport and culture surrounding it #posting from off the ice <- non sport-related posts #ask: 🔥🏒 <- ask replies #getflamed.txt <- any posts or significant reblogs by me what are not lb-tagged posts

That being said, none of these are the most consistent because I didn't have a set system for a while. I will eventually go back and fix old posts, but today is not that day.
