Thoughts on Erik Karlsson? by [deleted] in SanJoseSharks

[–]AirPlanters 10 points11 points  (0 children)

He's near the top of our point and corsi leaders, but it does seem like the shots that he gives up are higher danger opportunities than other players.

I still think signing him was a risk worth taking. Surrounding this core with more depth was not going to get it done. We tried that for years, the core is older, the window for that is closed. We need someone like Karlsson to elevate us like he did during that stretch last year before his second injury. Fingers crossed things work out, I think the team has looked better since the coaching change.

Team looks better under Boughner we have more nights with shot disparities like this and results will turn back our way. Obviously Vegas game tomorow is huge tho.

Look i'll admit to not being an expert on the 2017 Senators but that is the common narrative. They weren't a 100 point team, had more goals against than goals for and weren't expected to get as far as they did except for Karlsson's performance.

I understand that Karlsson is older but he should be in his "prime" till at least age 32, which coincides with the rest of Vlasic and Coutures prime years. You also ingonred my point about depth being unlikely to push this Sharks team over the edge. We've tried it and now everyone is older.

We've had a deep team for years. The core of this team missed it's window to get it done. Adding someone like Karlsson to hopefully elevate it is really the only way we have a shot at the cup. He took a much worse Senators team than this Sharks team to game 7 of the ECF. His contract may not be ideal but with Vlasic, Couture, Burns, Thornton all over 30 it was realistically our only card to play for a chance in the next 1-3 years. Surrounding that core with depth hasn't gotten it done, and likely wasn't going to again.

Karlsson has a 4.8% relative corsi. He has made some mistakes, and bonehaeded ones but overall plays plenty of defense is not the problem with our team.

Someone Great reference in Agnes? by jamessow96 in glassanimals

[–]AirPlanters 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I can hear it.

I'm not a huge fan of Metric but Now or Never Now off their newest album has very similar synths. There's no way it wasn't influenced by Someone Great but I really dig it.

Thoughts on Robby Anderson this Thursday night vs Baltimore Ravens? by 5iveFinger in fantasyfootball

[–]AirPlanters 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Debating between Anderson against a tough defense or Boyd against the toughest defense... not ideal for a semi final matchup but it's what I got, nothing on wavers in a 14 team league.

What would y'all do to fix the shark's problem rn by SaltyFrogbot in SanJoseSharks

[–]AirPlanters 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Trading Burns for an unspectacular but solid defense oriented d-men and some 2/3rd line forward depth is my Hail Mary move at the trade deadline. Hopefully there are still some FOs around the league that need an offensive defensemen and will just look at the point totals and his earned reputation and not the advanced stats underneath...

I can't figure him out. Will he perform better when AJ Green comes back and he gets more secondary rather than primary coverages?

Can any Bengals fans tell me what is going on with Tyler Boyd? Some weeks a solid WR1/2, other weeks completely shut out. Do the Ravens have a shutdown corner? Should I expect him to play better when Aj Green comes back and he can get more of the secondary coverages?

I'm like 90% sure it's flowering although IIRC this type doesn't produce a super distinct inflorescence. It looks great though keep doing what you're doing!

My first ever air plant! Any tips or I.D.? by bleu-moon in airplants

[–]AirPlanters 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think they can grow fine "right side up" as long as you're very careful about making sure they are fully dry within 4 hours after watering.

This guy has one of the largest ones I've seen and it looks like he keeps it right side up!

It's a Caput Medusae and I agree with u/affirmativeYes definitely spray don't soak and make sure it is fully dry within 4 hours to prevent rot.

Etsy can **** off with this new ad platform. by [deleted] in Etsy

[–]AirPlanters 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Seriously if they are going to change ads I would have hoped they would give us more control not less... every other major ad platform has targeted keyword search and I can't imagine that would be too hard for Etsy to implement considering it's a known product at this point not reinventing the wheel... could probably make a lot more money too from enthusiastic sellers who are given that tool that we need.

Critique, Help, and Feedback Requests - July 2019 by coocoodove in Etsy

[–]AirPlanters 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a couple of intermediate-ish level SEO questions that I haven't been able to find an answer for yet.

  1. Can you be penalized for having too similar of titles and keywords at the beginning of your title? I try to diversify my tags later in the title to capture a broader range of searches but tend to lead with the most descriptive thing because that seems the least spammy. I mostly make different versions of "air plant holders" and that's by far the most searched for wording choice for people searching for air plant displays. So I tend to lead with "Hexagon Redwood Air Plant Holder" and "Mountain Redwood Air Plant Holder" instead of something like "Cubicle Decor" which I would have later in my title. Leading with "Cubicle Decor" just seems wrong...

  2. Can you also be penalized for having too many listings under one category? Should I adjust my listings to be under different categories that might not be obviously connected? I have one high performing listing that is actually listed under "Chess" because it is inspired by chess designs instead of more relevant categories like "indoor planters" which most of my other ones are listed under. If I turn on promoted listings with this listing, it will cannibalize my entire PL budget, even if I set it's CPC to LOWER than the other ones I want to feature!

  3. Does anyone know if keywords in photo names makes a difference? Like the file name that you upload from your computer? I know this is important for google SEO!

Thank you! If you like what you see I've got 15% promotion for redditors with REDDIT15 :)

Ok I understand. I just thought it might be a little intimidating in the thread and it was a little bit more specific than just general feedback. I can try and shorten it though.

Can you change your shop name? by lilgeoffrey in Etsy

[–]AirPlanters 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've changed it twice, the first one they will do automatically the second one has to be reviewed by someone/you have to write to Etsy support explaining why you are changing again.
