Day 10: HOCKEY
Playoffs have started. My husband is a Ducks fan but I‘m a King‘s fan. What are you? 🏒
#the100dayproject #100daysofwords #💯 #hockey #🏒

heikemarie The Islanders are determined to be a continual disappointment. I‘ll be rooting for the Knights, what a cool year they‘ve had. 6y
That-Bookish-Hiker Flyers. But I swear they lose every time I watch! I was watching yesterday while I ran and they were getting killed. I know I don‘t have anything to do with that but with sports comes superstitions lol. 😝 6y
TK-421 I'm a Leafs fan 😟Not happy about their loss tonight! 6y

merelybookish Penguins. 🐧🐧🐧But we live in Denver so rooting for Avs too 6y
CouronneDhiver I‘m from T.O - Leafs always 💙 (although I don‘t watch much hockey anymore) 6y
Serenity_Within86 The Sharks ❤❤ 6y
OrangeMooseReads Red Wings all the way, but since they can‘t get it together to get passed the regular season I‘m hoping the Golden Knights can pull off something more. 6y
DaveNeufeld Neither of my teams made it in this year, but I can never get enough playoff hockey. I‘d like to see Ovechkin finally win a cup, he‘s been a true ambassador of the sport, loyal to his team and patriotic to his country. He deserves one. 6y

DanaManiac That‘s a great looking cake!! Btw, @LitsyBuddyRead is reading Beartown this month if you wanna join in! I‘ve never read a book about hockey before, and it‘s great so far! 😊 6y
Booksnchill In Nashville we all became major hockey fans with our Preds in the Stanley Cup- love the cake and I absolutely loved Bear Town! (edited) 6y
AmyG That‘s an awesome cake! 6y
That-Bookish-Hiker This is awesome. 😍 6y
Karkar @Dana1084 that book is soooo good!!! 6y
Karkar @Booksnchill we came down to watch the Preds vs Wild last year...the Wild is my team 😍. We plan on coming to a few more this next season 6y
Booksnchill @Karkar plan a visit to Parnassas Books- owned by Ann Patchett and a cool indy spot! 6y
Karkar @Booksnchill thank for that! I will for sure have to add that to the list. I know the first time we were going to make it a weekend so time for books!!! 📚 6y
LisaJo Parnassus is the best bookstore. I drive up from Birmingham at least once a year to visit it. Also you should visit McKay‘s Books. They sell new and used books. Plus other media items. It‘s pretty fun to walk those aisles of those shelves. Lots of aisles of shelves. 6y
Booksnchill @LisaJo I second McKays as well!!! 6y
LitsyGetsGraphic Gorgeous ❤️ 6y
LeahBergen Wow!! 6y
mrp27 Awesome! 6y

It's not actually a book but on Pi Day I can't help but recommend this wonderful story (told via web comic) about a college hockey player who loves to bake. You can find it at www.omgcheckplease.tumblr.com. It's adorable and the characters are A+ (although I wish there were more women in it). #PiDay

bookishkai Aaaaah, I saw the graphic before your caption and though "wait, why is Check, Please on Litsy?" I love love love this comic so much, and your post is a reminder that since walking away from tumblr I'm so many episodes behind. I think it's time for a reread. 7y
LizzyNanney @bookishkris For real! It's the only thing I get in tumblr for but it's so worth it. I was hesitant to post a non-book on Litsy but stories are important in all their forms. I'm glad to know a fellow CP reader! 7y
DaydreamingBookworm Ahhh I love Check, Please! I read it all in one sitting instead of studying for an exam. There were some tears. 7y
LizzyNanney @DaydreamingBookworm yessss!! So good to find another fan! 7y

Monday night hockey has the rookies against Johnny Hockey's team aka the Flames. On the radio because of regional coverage. #readingandlisteningtohockey

writerlibrarian With 1.01 minutes to go on the first period, Marner scores and puts the kids on the board. Go rookies! 👌 7y
writerlibrarian Kadri scores his 💯 th goal. It's 2-0 Leafs. The kids have 3 of the 4 points. Go rookies! Hyman adds to the lead in PK. Almost a rookie, 16 games last season is not a lot. It's 3-0 with less than 1.30 minutes to go. (edited) 7y
writerlibrarian Kadri got his second of the night. The assists are from the kids. Both Marner and Zaitsev have two points tonight. 4-0 Leafs. (edited) 7y
writerlibrarian Leafs win. Shootout for Andersen. Good game from the rookies.👍✊ 7y
