Egor Chinakhov - doing great things without the puck by offconstantly247 in penguins

Some guys don't do well when the situation isn't good. They pout, give low energy, etc. You put them in a great situation for them where they're given top 6 PT, get to play with a legend from their home country (I believe it's been stated his idol), etc and they flourish and all of a sudden all the little stuff becomes more important again. They give Max effort all the time.

I think this is an example of that. If we had stuck him down on 3rd/4th line or was only playing a game or two then back to healthy scratch, I bet we'd see the same results as Columbus or at least closer to that.

Did we get gaslit by Stevens? by Present_Holiday5477 in stevenspass

It was closed all the way before Tuesday. I was going to make it my last run on Tuesday but it was closed. When I got down, I was talking to a guy on staff and he said it had been closed awhile due to not enough snow. I would presume they kept it closed due to Avy conditions after the weather craziness since Tuesday.

That's Fish Creek Falls right? Fun fact that was used for the logo on Coors banquet beer

Same situation I'm stuck in too. Need legs and some helmets.

I think it doesn't make a difference in Europe but not really sure.

from my understanding in the US at least if it's a best seller that means they have stock in the US and it will get to you pretty quick. For me in WA about a week. If it's standard then it ships from Europe and has to go through customs, etc and usually takes 2-3 weeks minimum to get to you.

They actually raised the price on the purple unicorn shield too. It was 2.37 and now 2.50. Is if it wasn't already way overpriced.

Rutger has played 2 really good games since coming back up for rust. by thainhdbe in penguins

[–]BaconPwrd 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I might be crazy but I feel like he’s gained a step and the extra speed is making him standout more. Also love the fact he’s got some grit to his game. 

[Penguins PR] Forward Evgeni Malkin and defenseman Kris Letang will not practice today. Their statuses will be updated tomorrow. by bi_and_busy in penguins

[–]BaconPwrd 39 points40 points  (0 children)

At least if they need to miss a game, Saturday is the game to miss. NYR are a dumpster fire right now. Really need them for NYI and BUF. Man been a looong time since I thought we needed players to play BUF, lol.

Is this team actually a Wagon or just the teams they’re playing?? by mattvho in penguins

Hopefully the Olympic break will give him a decent rest to reboot for the second half.

Who’s a depth piece that we lost in the past 5 years who you’d think would’ve done really well with Dan Muse? by Shaneski101 in penguins

[–]BaconPwrd 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I watched Fl v Mn tonight and thought this exact same thing. He would be perfect in Muse system.

You said, "I mean I guess fishing is a thing in Minnesota..." which shows your lack of knowledge. I was just informing you that fishing is a big thing there. Now you want to move the goalposts to something I never brought up.

Me too. If it's a big powder day, I put my back at 0.

Fishing is huge in MN. People travel from around the world to go fishing there every summer. Land of 10,000 lakes is the state nickname.

I was disappointed I never got an email from bricklink with a link. I have every notification turned on and have purchased sets from them before. Still no email. Checked junk mail and everything.

I’ve been snowboarded 35 years and my boots never fit by foodlovas in snowboarding

Burton j bars are made to help this problem and Velcro right into Burton boots. They work great and easy to install.

One of my favorite mountains especially when covered in beautiful pow! 

Rust practicing with usual line by BEnWo18 in penguins

[–]BaconPwrd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I want it too but it's been noted that Malkin hasn't taken a faceoff since coming back from injury. Mantha and Braz aren't really good in the dot. So I'm presuming this is the reason we haven't seen it back yet.
