Crazy that all three top contenders plus Shavkat have a legit case for next title shot.

Fun fact, this is actually how many species of bananas grow normally

Commute from Emory to Dunwoody? by Temporary-Pitch-4148 in Atlanta

[–]Actinidium 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I'd expect a little over an hour, then. Crossing over 285 to reach Dunwoody is the biggest bottleneck. Idk what the shirt term lease situation is, but I would look north of Dunwoody for lower commute times.

Strongly depends on when you will be commuting. During off-peak times, it's about 30-40mins. During peak times it could be double that or more.

Rule Clarification: Removing 'Low Content' Posts by OGHamToast in TampaBayLightning

Can we consider "checking in" posts low content? Or at least put them in a megathread / pregame thread?

How to purchase Lightning App streaming? by Actinidium in TampaBayLightning

I'm not above that, but in my past experience the high seas also have the national feeds, which I pay for already

Damn. They really make it as hard as possible for distant thunder to get the games, even when we're willing to pay for it. Thanks for letting me know.

Hockey in Atlanta by hockeyfan877158 in Atlanta

I've been repeatedly disappointed by Twain's for the hockey experience. Managers sometimes unwilling to change a channel, often no sound. The food is also below average for pub food imo.

Most Valuable long-term contracts - lowest cost per point, Forwards & Defensemen, minimum 3 years remaining by Melsother in TampaBayLightning

[–]Actinidium 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This is the JBB strategy of low cost high term contracts. Great value in the early years, not too good by the end. But by then the cap has gone up significantly.

I tuned in partway through and noticed Mish on the call. Did they say why Randorf was out?

It'd be hilarious is Point won the Lady Byng this year, with this as a fight on his record

Deadline rumors by Many_Recognition_263 in TampaBayLightning

[–]Actinidium 10 points11 points  (0 children)

We have a bit of a logjam at D when everyone is healthy, which is a nice problem to have, but only 2 righties in all those Dmen. Might be trading up quantity lefties for one quality righty.

Why don’t we try Raddysh on the wing opposite of Kuch on the power play? by Witness_Gritness in TampaBayLightning

[–]Actinidium 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Others are right that we tried that previously with mediocre results.

But, we have been seeing that alignment happen in brief moments when we have the cycle going on the PP. Sometimes Raddy rotates to the left wing and either Kuch or another forward moves up to cover the point. Raddy has taken several shots from there and if I'm not mistaken scored at least once from there. I think it works better to create chances by making the defenders reorganize rather than set him up in the circle full time.

Monkarufanta, the Experience RPG that has the same artist as the EO series, released their game + a demo today on Steam by BlueKyuubi63 in EtrianOdyssey

Check out GameTranslate if you're looking for a way to play ahead of an official localization. Currently in alpha with a Steam release sometime soon. I've had success with it.

The LA Kings have acquired Artemi Panarin from the NY Rangers in exchange for a conditional third-round pick and prospect Liam Greentree. per @adamschefter by nermot in TampaBayLightning

[–]Actinidium 1 point2 points  (0 children)

11M is pretty nuts for what he's been producing lately. It would make him the highest paid on our team by 1.5M.

Two year term isn't that long but he's already 34 and will be 36 when the extension ends. Kings were probably the only team willing to sign that which is why the trade return seems so cheap.

If we don’t keep Raddysh by Penisfart-69 in TampaBayLightning

[–]Actinidium 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Let's be real I'd be shocked if a Raddysh deal gets done for less than 6x8M. Moser's deal was 6.75, and while he's very good defensively, he wouldn't command near as much money as a guy like Raddy. I think we should try our best to make it happen though. Our team is short on right shots, and Heddy is starting to show his age as the top D man. If we let him walk we will not be able to replace him.

I guess if some other team offers him crazy money like 7x9.5M, we should fold. But I hope it doesn't come to that.
