I’m just going to point out that Hall and Murray totally had a Stanley Cup Watch Party so what does everyone think they’re doing right now? Cheering? Freaking out? Wondering if they made this happen? Feeling vindicated because they FUCKING CALLED IT? I NEED TO KNOW.
*sighs* fine I guess I’ll write it
Quick question why are y’all reblogging my resignation
*throws this in the general direction of the fandom* DON’T LOOK AT ME

Murray Loves His Dramatic Children
‘Surprised’ is the wrong word. Murray hadn’t exactly expected the Stanley Cup final to end with his favorite former team captain kissing his current team captain, but seeing as it’s Bittle and Zimmermann, it’s not exactly outside the realm of possibility. Zimmermann may have a “Hockey Robot” reputation, but the kid has a flair for the dramatic that’s actually hilarious once you understand his personality. (Game winning goal in the final seconds of final overtime? Really, Jack?) And Eric Bittle iss the living embodiment of thinking with your heart.
“Huh,” says Hall, sitting to his left. He’s the only other person in the bar not completely shocked. “That’s one way to do it.”
Murray snorts. “You expected any different?”
“Not really,” Hall replies, with a smile. “This is kind of our fault, you know.”
“What do you mean ‘kind of’?” Murray laughs. “This is at least seventy percent our fault.”
