because my dear
ipreferaviators requested hockey fic recs, but no primers. I have thus defaulted to pretty much a list of links what you should click. >.>;;;
HERE YOU GO, BB:
Sidney Crosby/Evgeni "Geno" Malkin (Pittsburgh Penguins) | Primarily for the times you need some adorable pining, oblivious boys, interfering friends (who all happen to be Russian), etc. The epic tale of a Canadian hockey robot and the goofy Russian puppy who loves him. <3

I was almost scared off, and then I read it and was like, ??? o_0? YMMV, of course!)
http://archiveofourown.org/works/663808http://archiveofourown.org/works/730574http://archiveofourown.org/works/742798 Sidney Crosby (Pittsburgh Penguins)/Alexander Ovechkin (Washington Capitals) | Supposedly "rivals", awesome hockey players, polar opposites. Somehow it... works?
http://archiveofourown.org/works/367413/chapters/597334 (<-- MUST READ.)
http://archiveofourown.org/works/274653/chapters/434990http://archiveofourown.org/works/323039 Eric Staal/Jeff Skinner (Carolina Hurricanes) | The Captain and The Rookie. Go-to for the long AUs full of pining. (Pining may be a ~thing~, shut up.) Some power imbalance issues, but mainly the ones that make them go, "But I CAN'T, it would be WRONG! :( " and then their teammates/friends/brothers do a lot of eyerolling.
Non-AUs:

http://archiveofourown.org/works/381558http://archiveofourown.org/works/377891/chapters/616704 (the nanny!Jeff fic)
http://archiveofourown.org/works/332914 (the runaway!Jeff fic)
Patrick Kane/Jonathan Toews (Chicago Blackhawks) | BFFs who might possibly bone a lot, in between fighting about how much the other one sucks at life and shit. Also it's TAEVES, not TOES, tyvm. Buddyfucking, a decent amount of pining when they are buddies who WANT to be fucking instead of just doing it, stupid boys being stupid, a smattering of kidfic. We love their stupid faces, except when we hate them.
