I think Jack Hughes being out for 2 months after slicing open his finger at a dinner for Barstool’s “Frank the Tank” is the funniest injury in NHL history, surpassing the time Brent Sopel threw out his back picking up a cracker off the floor.

I worked really hard on all the details for this fish plush pouch. Especially the card window that I wanted to have a snug pocket on the inside so that nothing will get lost! I love cute and functional products and I'm super happy with how this came out! 💛

friday soapbox: as a designer, if you want something to be a skillful action for players, and you want growth in this skill to be very deep/meaningful, then you need to also let players be bad at it. sometimes horrendously bad. players hate this pain, and designers often want to mitigate it away.
