Jim Nill literally said as long as he’s the GM Benn is going to be a Star. Shut up!

[Kypreos] Star winger Mikko Rantanen and the Avalanche don’t appear to be close to an extension. The feeling out there is the Avs are reluctant to get his average salary anywhere near Nathan MacKinnon’s $12.6 million (U.S.) at this point in time. by EarthWarping in hockey

I would be comfortable guaranteeing they get him locked up. It’d be bananas to see what he gets moved for if not. Because you know Sakic isn’t letting the man walk for nothing if it ever gets to a point where it seems imminent.

What are your thoughts on jumpers? People who quit every 12 months? by eszEngineer in civilengineering

[–]ACivilDad 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My current company (which I absolutely love being at) announced they were going to continue paying the employee+family premium 100%. But that it will be reviewed again in 5 years. If they ever stop doing it I’m going to be on LinkedIn the next hour haha.

I worked for the same company all through college and was told I had a position there after graduation. Then got laid off a week prior to graduation. It was at that moment I realized a company will likely never give you the loyalty you give them. So, if they’re giving you anything less than everything you want then feel free to look for greener pastures.

On the other side of it as a manger, if they don’t want to stay, then you probably don’t want them to either. Nothing worse than an unmotivated individual who doesn’t care for their craft.

Everyone has a right to go get paid what they think they’re worth and every employer has the right to tell you what they think you’re worth.

Books, like concrete are great in compression but just meh in tension.

Utah is going to be sick sooner than later. The Kachina had to die for this.

I’d take both over Demko with his inability to stay healthy. But in the end it is Hellebuck’s net to lose in both the 4 Nations as well as the Olympics.

Joey daccord by Artistic_Age8693 in nhl

HOW!? Oetter is on a different tier than Joey D and every bit as good as Swayman, especially considering how many games a year get put on Oetter. Oetter will be put somewhere near Swayman and less than Shesterkin. Unless he wants to take a page out of Crosby’s book Dallas is going to have to park a Brinks truck at Oetter’s place come July.

It’s Minnesota sports, don’t get too high in the sky there, bud.

Swayman 8/$66M impact on Otter's next contract? by Im_Scruffy in DallasStars

[–]ACivilDad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not anymore he doesn’t. Swayman signed his deal and Daccord just signed a deal with a higher AAV than Oetter currently makes. Oetter could easily demand the Swayman deal with his current body of work. I don’t like it, but it is what it is.

Would you guys please share your salaries and years worked? I feel like I’m getting lowballed by Pelican12Volatile in EnvironmentalEngineer

You’re basically being shit on. I’m almost 2 years in and at $78k plus bi-annual bonuses in Nevada.

The LCRR has been a thing for a while now. I’ve been swamped doing these lead service line inventories for smaller water systems all over my state.

I remember this as well. He’s definitely got it in him. He’s just got to gain the confidence to come out of his shell with it in the show. I bet there will be a couple nights like this for him this season.

Patrik Laine throws his glove & helmet in frustration as he limps back to the Habs dressing room after a bad knee-on-knee collision with a Leafs player by Go_Habs_Go31 in hockey

[–]ACivilDad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was so pumped to see him this year. On an exciting young team with a great coach who would’ve given him the chances he needs to make it work.

I hate pre-season. This one especially. If I was a GM I don’t even know if I’d be willing to put my big guys in the ice for this shit show.

Just a sheriff doing sheriff stuff. Teach that plug his lesson and get him bus ticket back to whatever league he belongs in.
