    Summary

    “Ain’t no way, bro. You are fucking attached to your boys.”

    “What, you think I can’t go a few days without physical contact?”

    “Bet. Do a week until we play you guys down here in Philly. You win, I venmo you every time you get your iced coffee crap for a month.”

    “Easiest bet ever, what the fuck.”

    Or: Cole is nothing if not competitive, so when Trevor bets him that he can’t go a week without touching his teammates off the ice, he’s fucking on it.

    He makes it four days.

    Summary

    The program had been struggling to find coaches, and they wanted Sid to do some promotional content. Which is why he was in his Pittsburgh house when Geno had FaceTime’d him for one of their regular summer check-ins.

    “Sid, you’re in Pittsburgh?” Geno had asked, eyebrows scrunched in confusion. “Why you’re back already?”

    “Hello to you too. I’m good Geno, thanks for asking.” Sid huffed but continued. “The little penguins called. They wanted me to do some content for them. I guess they’re having a hard time recruiting coaches and thought I could help…you know, promote the program.”

    Geno hadn’t made a noise the whole time Sid was talking and the silence stretched on. His eyes focused somewhere beyond Sid.

    “G?” Sid prompted.

    “Sorry, I was looking up flights. I come home, help.” Geno said.

    “Oh, G, you don't have to-“ Sid started.

    “If Sidney Crosby change routine, must be important. Baby penguins need press, make more noise if we both do, no?”

    Summary

    The last thing Matthew expected to hear when he woke up this morning was his five year old son announcing that not only has he found his favorite NHL team, but also his favorite player.

    Matthew Tkachuk’s son is an Oilers fan. And to add insult to injury, he was also a Leon Draisaitl fan.

    — — — —

    What happens when you’re a pro hockey player and your son’s favorite person in the world just so happens to be your arch nemesis? You do what Matthew Tkachuk does, go along for the ride apparently.
