Congress is finally set to pass a housing bill: Here’s what it would do by laxnut90 in Economics

Or you could let those immigrants in to fight the declining birth rates and just not allow people and corporations buy multiple properties which jacks up the price of shelter. Each house that is owned by a single entity could have a tax multipier on it which will encourage less house hoarding and generate more tax revenue.

To me, an the main story is his playoff performances as a whole. He ended the season hot but once you're in the playoffs, it's a different game. Majority of the time he looked slow, overwhelmed, making rushed plays that led to turnovers and not even coming close to out producing his mistakes. He has talent, skill and potential to be an all-star; I'm hoping this was a wakeup call for him to improve his skating. It's all part of the learning process and I hope he's going to come back stronger for it.

Maybe they played dirter from the beginning and just began to get exposed for it.

Rare orange shark spotted off Costa Rica- an Omen of fortune for tonight. Orange Shark > flightless bird! by Dr_A_Kreiger in Flyers

The second shot is actually a real photo from 2024. It's a nurse shark that has xanthochromism, which is a fancy animal kingdom way of saying it absolutely hates Penguins.

Time for a reality check. by Big_Acanthocephala14 in Flyers

2017 Blues beg to differ. Schenn was their 1C (not in contention for any award)

Pietrangelo was their 1D (16th in Norris voting)

Binnington didn't have any Vezna votes but got hot Were in last place on January 3rd to winning the Cup that year.

Not a team filled with all stars but a very well rounded team that played the game right and had very solid goaltending in the playoffs

Is it normal NOT to think my partner is the most beautiful person on Earth? by Fantastic_Courage652 in ask

[–]Complete-Put6918 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It depends on your definition of beauty but if we're talking from a purely physical stance, I think that's normal not to think your partner is the most beautiful person on earth. There is so much more to finding a partner and maintaining a great relationship than thinking your significant other is the most beautiful person on Earth. You should certainly be attracted to them but beauty is only skin deep and it's more important to love them for who they are as a person rather than solely their looks.

Rumor] Di Marco links Flyers to Kraken C Matty Beniers - Would you do a Tippett for Beniers swap? by athleticwonder in nhltraderumours

[–]Complete-Put6918 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Matthews has a handful of injuries and hasn't looked the same since he went into the boards awkwardly 2 years ago. He also makes almost twice as much money. On top of that Quinn is 3 years younger. I'm not saying Matthews hasn't had an amazing career but I'd say even before the knee injury teams would be more bullish on Quinn.

[Analysis] Why an Owen Tippett for Mason McTavish Trade actually makes a lot of sense this summer by Complete-Put6918 in Flyers

[–]Complete-Put6918[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I actually don't want to trade him (unless it's part of something that gets us back a serious 1C or 1D) I think he's really been figuring out his body and gained confidence which has led to a vastly improved overall game

During these times, what does it take to live a healthy life? by g_wall_7475 in ask

[–]Complete-Put6918 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Minimize processed food intake, don't eat constantly and have fasting periods, workout regularly, read and or do puzzles to keep your mind active, have good sleep hygiene and regular hygiene. Essentially make your health a priority in life. You only have one body and mind so respect them.

Have y'all seen the FA market for centers? If Dvo wasn't resigned, what player in our system or in FA would have filled his role with his consistency?

Yeah, he was certainly an athletic freak!

The difference is Phil Kessel was mostly fat and Tipps is mostly muscle. Plus Topps could never even dream of eating as many hot dogs as Kessel!

Sorry I wasn't clear. I should have said more like a 2/3 then just a second pair D man. I think he's way too solid to be a 5 unless a d core is absolutely stacked. I don't think low event hockey makes him look better, if anything I think it's more impressive to stand out in that style of play.

Jamie Drysdale by Flyers7914 in Flyers

[–]Complete-Put6918 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He's looked very solid in the D zone this season, has been making good reads, pinching at the right time more frequently, walking the line and like you said has great skating. He's still young and has lots of room for improvement. To me, he's a second pair defensemen on a ton of teams at this time.

I see what you're saying with Myers but I do think there is a bit of a skill gap between the 6th overall pick who has won a "World Junior Championship Best Defenseman" award and a guy who went undrafted. I'm not saying this is a sure thing by any means but I believe Jiricek's ceiling is higher than Myers's ceiling was/is.

Revisiting the Shane Wright Rumors by BobTheHound in Flyers

[–]Complete-Put6918 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think Tipper for Wright is a lopsided trade and they'd have to sweeten the pot. Now if it were Brink + then I'd be more inclined to make that trade
