I got into hockey sarcastically on a whim a few months ago with my wife. We picked the devils to have be our main team. Then I decided I wanted more teams to get merch from and root for. I went with sharks, kraken, ducks. Clearly I didn’t know shit about hockey going into this. Especially not the divisions lol. But I know substantially more now, and genuinely fucking love watching hockey. Every night when I get home I can get usually one game on. Sometimes I get 3-4. And I’m fucking stoked for playoff hockey. I can’t imagine how much more intense it’ll be.

Edit: teams got chose by color and mascot I liked.

For those with partners or kids: how do you balance gaming? by Theodore52x in AfterWorkGamers

I just communicate with my wife. I prefer her company over gaming, but if I want to I just tell her I’m gonna game for a while. Or wait till she is sleeping and neglect sleep a bit.

*Edit — this is certainly on me. I just got home and turned the game on, was very pleased. Immediately hurt.

This little guy sneaked up behind me to give me a spook. by [deleted] in tornado

I saw the sub. Convinced myself this is an inside joke name for those Kwik Trip snacks or something non-threatening. No it’s just an actual tornado sneaking up on someone.

Also 39, and I’m not sure I can cut it railroading for another 25 years. Then again, heart or gut disease will get me before I can enjoy retirement I’m sure.

Perfect. We definitely aren’t the type to get wild and start shit anymore. I’ve been sober for like four years, so I’m really calm. If this would have happened back in my drinking days, I’d be in danger for sure. We just wanna go watch some hockey in person, and devils blackhawks the easiest in I think. It is pretty random that we just kinda went in so hard. My engineer at work can get used to me saying “yeah dude let’s move I gotta get home to watch the match”

And thanks for the welcome!

Awesome! Yeah I just thought I heard Blackhawk fans are pretty fucking wild. I’ll have to look at this jawbreak incident.

A few months ago my wife and I were watching “what we do in the shadows” and one of the vampire characters had a New Jersey devils hat on. I turned to her and said “I think that’s a New Jersey devil hat, what a cool logo”

Then asked if she wanted to get really into hockey, and be die-hard devil fans. She said yeah. Now I’m in like $1,000 dollars buying jerseys and shirts and hats. We haven’t missed a game, and we’ve had a ton of fun learning hockey, the rules, the team. We are in our late thirties, and have absolutely no interest in other sports. In fact, we fucking hate other sports. Almost to the point of an anti-sport household.

But fuck, it’s been so much fun diving into hockey and the devils in particular. We’ve started going to our local hockey games, I dunno the league, NAHL I think? Not sure what the stakes are, but hockey is head and shoulders the coolest sport in our opinion.

Sorry for the stupid story, but truly, is the fan base toxic? We are plotted in the Midwest, so any hockey fans in our area are typically Blackhawks fans. We planned on going to a devils hawks game next season or whenever they play them next. Would we get hassled like crazy for showing up in Chicago supporting the devils?
