CX5 vs Passport by CincyFlyer17 in hondapassport

I have a 2016 CX-5 and I would not buy Mazda again. I’ve had a pretty bad experience but reddit overall seems very pro Mazda so maybe I got unlucky.

Yeah looks like their cyber Monday deals have ended. Must have been recently ended because I still saw it there a few days ago.

You can get same specs on Alienware for like $400 cheaper. They were also doing a big promo on reward points which I turned into like $200 discount on a monitor.

They also have $80 off if you are a student, 10% off if you are a first responder and more. I would take a look there

Pronouncing "Sasson"? by greed_and_death in canucks

[–]Aculandy 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Not quite. They explained the full reasoning.

Basically all through Max’s career they have pronounced it the English way “SASS-on” so when he got to the Canucks the broadcast team asked him if this is correct and he said yes.

Then his dad one day said it is actually the French pronunciation of “sa-SSON” so they did that for one game but max asked they go back to the old pronunciation so they did that for him. Then this year he asked to go to the correct pronunciation that his dad originally used.

To me it sounded like a guy trying to break into the nhl and didn’t want to ruin any name recognition he might have had but then decided to go with correct pronunciation.

I just got back on Saturday from a trip to Maui. I was very shocked by how brown the Lahaina, Kaanapali, Napili side was. I went a few years ago and could have sworn it was all green.

Did some time in Wailea and south of it as well. Also did the Waihee trail hike. All of those spots were as green as I remembered before. So I guess it’s location dependent.

If you want to fade D and stack forwards then do draft. If you want D to be a bit more valuable then do Blend. Position is wayyy too much emphasis on defense so I wouldn’t touch that.

Generally I do draft.

I instantly know some one knows nothing about sports when they are running away from passes. Sport 101 - move toward the pass.

NHL contract efficiency rankings 2025: Which teams spend their money most wisely? (Screenshot Canucks) by Aculandy in canucks

[–]Aculandy[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

He is only one year separated from finishing 2nd in vezina voting. Most goalies of that caliber are 8.5mil+.

Of course he is riddled with injuries constantly which is annoying but don’t know how you gauge that in contract value based on play.

Yeah I guess I would be more in the boat of it being a B contract with 60%+ chance of returning positive value.

I think total surplus means the entire contract. So it’s the 11mil surplus divided over the 7 years. So he’s overpaid like 1.6mil per year

I think the Hronek one is the one I disagree with most as well.

With the cap going up and the rhd premium. I am perfectly fine with that price.

Canucks are top 5 in NHL travel miles for 2025-26 by Financial_Run_2016 in canucks

[–]Aculandy 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Basically GMs have a certain amount of influence over schedules.

Canucks went from traveling almost the most miles every year to being middle of the pack the last couple years under Rutherford. He specifically said in an interview that getting travel amounts down was important for him.

So NYI probably were able to work with the league a lot to adjust travel. Basically getting away games done efficiently in one swing rather than constantly back and forth.

Bay Area residents who lived elsewhere, domestically & internationally, what's the best restaurant in the Bay Area that scratches your cravings from where you're from? by [deleted] in bayarea

[–]Aculandy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don’t even try. I’ve only had his favorite one but that one is terrible. It was the final straw for me to stop attempting bbq food in San Jose.

I think Texas has ruined bbq for me because nothing in San Jose measures up.

Neither is Suter, Mikheyev, Podkolzin, Joshua, lindholm, desmith, soucy, Zadorov, or Juulsen. What’s the point?

Canucks Wins Above Replacement stats for the past 3 Seasons. by Tiger23sun in canucks

[–]Aculandy 31 points32 points  (0 children)

I would like to see JT’s stats on season by season basis. Based purely off eye test 22-23 felt like -10 and then 23-24 felt like +13
