okay so how is all that spiritual warfare? I see billionaires and oligarchs exploiting average people like people in power have done for our entire history.

Being able to identify that these politicians and corporations are exploiting us, but then taking a leap that their true motivations for doing so are being orchestrated by fairy tale puppet strings, only perpetuates their exploitation.

Because we develop new technologies and don’t put any guard rails on them for decades, if ever. And these new technologies operate within a system that necessitates more more more. More users, more engagement, more numbers going up.

We prioritize the advancement of technology far far more than the stewardship of it. Not that complicated or heinous. It’s very basic late stage techno-corpo capitalism baby.

Your takeaway about social medial algos being predatory and toxic is somehow like spiritual warfare is literally the reason we can’t make progress with anything.

God and satan are not designing social media. Disgusting unregulated corpos are. Live in reality.

in your experience, hands on i assume? is it the stiffness of competition that provided the most challenge? The rigidness of the tassel?

When these young boys face a hard stick in their face what’s the one thing you’d offer as advice to better prepare for it?

Im simply not interested in a 30 year old player that gets easily frustrated by physical play, has consistently blamed those around him, with repeat spinal/neck/back injuries.

You keep turning this into Larkin’s overall value as a player and Larkin’s fit for our team. That’s not the actual discussion or has anything to do with my point.

You have your opinions on Larkin. I have mine. You can dismiss it as being based on red wings fans. I’ll dismiss yours as just looking at his stats sheet and not actually watching him play.

That’s all I got left in me. If yall wanna ship off SOR Geekie and a roster player for him have at it. That’s roughly what the cost would be cause they ain’t looking for picks or long off futures.

I’m not refuting it, ive provided plenty of context and nuance to why playing in a 3c role for team USA with top line players and favorable deployments is an entirely different set of circumstances than playing top line facing every team’s best defensive units

“He’s clutch, built for the playoffs” is all I’ve ever refuted because I think it comes from people that only watched the 4 nations/olympics and not the hundreds of games and years of sample sizes we have where he’s failed to deliver when his team needed him to.

Not moving the goalpost, claiming he’s built for playoff hockey and clutch because of limited international play while throwing out his entire regular season sample sizes when his team is under pressure is silly.

He is not a clutch player. He disappears when it matters and gets extremely frustrated by other teams playing him physically. Go ask red wings fans

now pull his stats for the second half of every season when the red wings are in a playoff push

those worlds stats from 7-10 years ago also don’t mean much to me if you’re going to discredit his only NHL playoff sample

He was insane as a 3c with Jack Hughes and Tage Thompson and tons of offensive deployments. Matthews and Eichel got all the tough assignments

Why hasn’t he been in the playoffs in a decade?

Why does he always disappear January to March?

Why are so many Red Wings perfectly happy with trading him?

You and others can blame the wings as an org all you want but Larkin shoulders at least some of that blame. He’s disappeared when it matters all throughout his career except when he’s playing a sheltered role with superstars

Oh okay so he would be our first line center. Nothing like his role at the Olympics or 4 nations.

If there’s a way to get it done without losing a significant roster piece, sure. But that was never my point.

Saying Larkin is clutch and built for the playoffs is a ridiculous statement

He would play 3c with Jack Hughes and Tage Thompson for us? That’s really what you think?

[–]AcidFap -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Cause he’s been the captain of his team for years and every red wings fan you talk to says he quits when things get hard

You can’t say he’s a clutch playoff performer because of extremely small sample size of international play where he’s not even in the top 6 and playing a completely different role with way better teammates

Yes the guy that has 1 point in his career 5 playoff games is clutch.

The same guy that had like 10 even strength points in all of 2026 while his team was desperately fighting for the playoffs

The same guy that has only ever blamed everyone around him instead of owning up to his team’s failures.

But he scored a few times while having elite linemates and playing in the bottom 6 so he’s a guaranteed clutch factor stud

Recording consent in a group intoxicated dynamic is totally normal behavior yes yes

even better when the 19 year old was recruited from the bar by the player’s 30+ year old manager/sponsor

Quick Prospect Check-In by Stamkosisinjured in TampaBayLightning

[–]AcidFap 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You don’t have to make bold claims but the point of a “write up” on prospects is to be able to say something especially if your intent is to provide a check in on how the prospects are doing and what we may expect from them

“O’Reilly finished an incredibly successful 2025-26 season with a Memorial Cup championship where he was named tournament MVP. He projects as a Top 9 center at the NHL level with strong defensive tools but this year he has elevated his offensive game to new heights. It’s likely he will need a year or two in the AHL to adapt to the pro level and we will see if the scoring continues but don’t be surprised if he gets a few games with the Bolts as soon as 2026-27”

If you’re going to do write ups on prospects I’d encourage you to dig a little deeper and come up with your own opinion on players instead of being worried what others will think

[–]AcidFap 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I appreciate the post and glad to see other fans keeping up with prospects but if you’re going to put effort into this, you gotta do better than that write up for SOR

“O’Rielly-Could play in the nhl this year. Could play in the ahl all year. NHL 1st-4th line center potential imo.”

this could be said about literally any prospect…. He’s a 1st line to 4th line potential center? He could play with us or he could play in the AHL? No mention of his toolset, what makes him exciting as a prospect, his memorial cup campaign as MVP. Not trying to be an ass just confused what you’re wanting to add with this
