STOP DOING THIS DASTARDLY

I'd stop but I FEEL IT IN MY BONES

Lol! My favorite clip ever.

Also, feels weird seeing Etem with The Stache's numner... Not sure I like it.

What if Etem breaks out this season and becomes hella good and starts his legacy right here right now?

History will be made.

I wasn't even aware it was a documentary series.

The Mighty Ducks was a documentary and it's events happened in real time

Really interested to see tomorrow what Subban's asking vs what Montreal is offering.

Eller's situation is still confusing. He must have one hell of an agent if he was lowballed at $1.65M, asked for $3.1M, and ended up getting signed for $3.5M. lol.

How many years did he get? Brass got $5 per when he was asking for 4.9 and probably would have gotten 4.5-4.6 in arbitration. But he also signed for 5 years, buying up 4 years of UFA.

Eller got 4 years with 2 years of UFA being bought up.

Yup, that's why he got that extra cash. Otherwise any arbitration deal would have taken him straight to UFA, being worth less.
Yea, and the worst case scenario is Eller remains a very good 3rd line C, and by year 3/4 his contract will be fine for that position, especially if you look at a guy like Bolland this year. If he can push himself into the top 6 it should be a steal by then.

Any word yet on who will be taking over the Alternate Captain roles from Teemu and Koivu?

oh god. that'll be a goal .gif for sure.


i look forward to seeing it about 9 times next year.

You mean 9 times per game he scores in.

It's almost as good as Girardi thrust, but Girardi never scores and there are only like 4 of us Rangers fans.
 
What's the talk from the Florida beat writers RE: His brother?
Tallon was very interested last I heard. Though Freidman last "30" said he's heard rumblings of the opposite. If Tallon wants him I think he'll get him. The biggest problem though is the team is heavy 2-3 forwards for next year already so he might not have a guranteed spot up if he signs.

I know we were interested in the other Hayes, but I can't see it happening even if Kreids and Step work their magic. A little over $1M left and still no J. Moore. Gonna have to move some shit around.

I'm also kinda bummed we can't keep Carcillo. I liked him.

It'll probably happen because Tallon needs as many players from the Blackhawks system as possible.
 
I think I'm looking at new ice skates, I've had mine for probably 6-7 years now and they are getting pretty worn down, been looking to stick with Bauer and was looking at the X60's or X70's. Though I can't find much difference between the two other than the X70's are more expensive and have a little bit different graphics and tongue material. Anyone have either of these pair of skates?

X70 is formable to your foot with heat, the 60s are not.

always buy formable skates.

I thought the X60's were heat mold-able as well (I know my old XXII's were baked to my feet and the X60's seem to be in the same line as those)? At least Total Hockey's website list's that they are.

weird i checked bauers website, maybe the extent of the heat molding is different?

Don't forget that not everyone on the cap right now isn't going to be on the final roster. AHL guys like Mueller and Fast count in the summer but will almost certainly be sent down. There are extraneous Dmen on the team as well.

I just found that you can heat mold them but they are more of a form fit so the heat mold won't do much. I may stop by the Total Hockey by my work this Friday and take a look at the X70's then.

I guess I could always get new runner for my old skates but something with them has just felt off recently when I've been skating and they are quite old.

So my dog has been having trouble with her front left paw recently, three vet visits later they referred me to a specialist. The specialist is scheduling her an MRI right now and think they are going to have to do spinal surgery.

Oh man :(
 
Woke up this morning and one of my PC hard drive was clicking. It's the hard drive with all my lossless music files in my iTunes folder and downloads. Gotta get a new hard drive and salvage what I can or go through the trouble of converting FLAC to Apple Lossless.

Then I got pulled over because I failed to stop a full 3 seconds at a stop sign. Just got a warning though. Perfect record no tix.

Is the hard drive still actually working? Back that shit up as soon as humanly possible.

Nah not working. Windows had to scan the drive. It finished but then the PC wouldn't load. Still heard clicks. Shut it down and unplugged that one hard drive then it loaded fine.

Will try an external to see if the computer can recognize it. If it doesn't, most of the docs and other small files are backed up with Dropbox. iTunes I can redownload movies and the music was just a mirror of my FLAC collection (just in apple lossless).

I might have stored a vast amount of video game artwork but I may have backed it up to an external anyway.

I blame Dustin Brown.

never buy new runners for old skates. I did that with my old Grafs and they didn't feel the same. Something always felt off.

I took a slapshot to the blades and they broke inside and damaged the slot. Never felt the same again.

Hey Quick, you were the one talking about building a computer the other day, right? Newegg is having a sale on SSDs, and they are actually down by pretty solid amounts. I'm not sure if this will work where you are but hey, it's worth a shot. Maybe the Canadian version of Newegg will give you a break if you throw this in their faces.

Nothing on Newegg.ca, but thanks for the heads up.

PC building is currently on hold due to some unexpected expenses.

Most people here do a rolling stop. I do a full 3-second stop if I see cops, though.

uh, wow 0_o

I do this more often than not, but 99% of drivers here don't, and I don't think the cops give a shit either.

Typical Asian drivers.

I actually feel like a cop will pull me over for doing a full three seconds rather than not doing it.

Everyone does low rolling stops here, it's so rare anyone does a full stop for even a second. It's like suspicious if they do, they're hiding something lol. I just do slower rolling when I see a cop checking.

I got pulled over a week ago on the 241 because of my window tint... WTF? I know it's technically illegal to have tint on your front windows but everyone fucking has it. To make it worse there was a dude speeding right by me in a Porsche at 90+mph. Yeah okay, let's give the guy with tint a fix it ticket rather than a speeding ticket which can make the state money and the roads a safer place!
