I think factually, you have to make up things to make yourself feel better about your own team.
Looks pretty crazy, hopefully Kave_Mans okay, I know cats hate water.
I like how defending the credibility of the list now means you need to defend Flurry belonging there.
I'm fine. My area isn't near any of the flooding.
But just going to charge up my electronics just in case we eventually get a power outage.
Heard the airport is shutdown basically.

Ryan will continue to have a fantastic career in Ottawa, possibly even breakout if he can develop fantastic chemistry with Spezza. But who knows how Silver will turn out. He's got potential out the wazoo and and proven it already.
Like I said, the other big thing that will determine ultimately how this trade will work out will be that 1st round draft pick next year. if the Sens somehow collapse... Oh boy.

You're pretty fucking biased and provocative whenever it comes to discussing the Rangers, from what I've seen. You're also occasionally a prick about it.
But hey, you're an Isles fan. I wouldn't have it any other way. Prick on!

Jesus Christ. The Ryan Davis thread made me remember why I hate video gamers.

I think Noesen is really awesome as well, wonder if he will get a shot next year

I personally liked Silfverberg more than Zibanejad... But the Sens had a lot of good prospects so I guess they could afford it.
Can't be bothered to read through that thread. What's happened?

Ryan Davis was 34? I'm 32 and there's no way I look this old in 2 years. Edit : Maybe I look insensitive, but I barely knew the guy's existence.
Not sure how you thought that kind of comment would go over well :lol

I felt it was a perfectly reasonable comment and answer to that question. And I got the idea for it from fat people being concerned for that exact reason.

But then again. It was probably my bad thinking Gaming-Age would be anywhere near a good place for a meaningful conversation. My bad for thinking something like this would help those assholes grow up even a little bit.
Pretty stupid comment by you.

How is it stupid though? It's almost certainly a very true reason why some people are asking.
While I personally think the comment is fine and understand what you meant by it completely, I also would have known not to post that there. That's just asking for drama really.
I can't post 75% of my opinions or questions online. Most people are fussy as fuck about everything, especially the average gamer.

To be fair, when I saw a picture of him, my first thought was that he must've died due to something vascular related.
- Guy dies
- People are sensitive
- People ask why he died
- Sensitive person gets upset
- You say, essentially, 'It's because they're fat and worried'
So,
1) Stupid for provoking sensitive people in such a way in such a thread
2) Stupid for suggesting that people are curious for that reason
I asked why he died in that thread. I'm not remotely fat, or concerned that I'd share his fate. I asked for the same reason that most people ask: when a person dies young and unexpectedly, you want to know why.
Likewise, although I don't know who the guy is or if he has any history of other medical issues.
Yea, outside of NHL-Gaf I'm not too vocal, it's not worth the ban from offending some over sensitive 35 year old man child.

I don't think it's a stupid suggestion though. A lot of people have been asking because of that exact reason, so it's entirely true and which was why I bought it up.

But I agree it was stupid of me for thinking this wouldn't be provocative in Gaming-Age of all places.
Best to leave that stuff out of Gaming-Age, Spectre. I can definitely see what you're trying to say, but some people are honestly waiting for that type of post to jump on and be offended at.
Fragile egos. I like how one of them posted, "I'm ripped and love GiantBomb", as if to separate himself from the crowd.

It's an incredibly emotional thread that really needed nothing but good vibes and well wishes in it. You definitely weren't the only person posting questionable things but your internet tough guy persona in the responses is really not appreciated.
You know GAF well enough to know that a comment like that would have provoked a reaction. If you can't handle that/don't want that, don't post there. It's the same reason I only post opinions I know will raise harsh criticism to communities I know. E.g. "The bubble" aka NHL-GAF and a few others.
Your mere presence in this thread, and now on Steam, offends me, Smelly.
You're not a mod, I don't care about your opinion.
What did you expect to see here, a "jk"?

We've been looking for a top end winger for Spezza since Heatley left town so this is the kind of trade we had to do. I can't think of anyone as good or better than Ryan who is realistically available. Ryan has rumored to be on the trade block for what seems like years now.
Zibanejad is younger and put up the same amount of points in his first year, actually he put up one more point, in less games so his PPG would be higher.
I guess if you have to choose he seems the better choice although Silfver was my favorite as well.
Plus we drafted Lazar this year who seems to be generating a real good amount of hype from our development camp so I guess we could afford to give them up, only so many roster spots and we still have other good prospects on the wing.
Go back to your shame circle.

Genuinely shocked and surprised that you picked up on that amazingly obscure (to North America at least) reference.
When they had the game in Melbourne, it was FLOODED with red shirts. Unbelievable.
