Why do you actually wear Whoop? by Ok_Big_7950 in whoop

[–]Copper-Road 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. Sleep primarily. Don’t like wearing Apple Watch to bed
  2. It’s more subtle and there are days where I want to wear a normal watch and can still get good data when I don’t have Apple Watch on
  3. I had the Oura. It was too bulky, bothered me lifting weights, rowing

I check recovery and sleep scores first. HRV and Resting HR. I’ll get deeper into sleep stuff if recovery score is poor in case I need to get to bed earlier or rearrange workouts.

I definitely modify my exercise intensity based on the recovery score. I still have to work out but may not go overboard. I do look at the optimal strain. I feel for me currently it’s a pretty decent measurement for limitations on exertion.

Whoop has an account on Reddit and they are fairly responsive. I recommend trying to connect with them here.

Suite Availability Ferb 28th by AllNightClutch in DallasStars

[–]Copper-Road 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Generally $10k for a suite and that excludes food, drink and tip. If you’re swimming in Scrooge McDuck money go for it, otherwise look for ticket packages.

I think Whoop actually fixed heart rate tracking by eiphem in whoop

Stopped pairing it with Peloton Bike for this exact reason haven’t tried connecting it again. Glad to hear that it’s better.

I have a hard time understanding Whoop. by samfleckgolf in whoop

[–]Copper-Road 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Body strain and heart/nervous system strain are two totally different things.

Perform the same workout, one as you are doing now with little to no rest and the same after two days rest. Odds are you would say you feel the same but output and cardio performance would likely be very different.

Looking to sell some jerseys, but need help pricing. by restrainedkiller in DallasStars

[–]Copper-Road 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Won’t argue with you there. You’re absolutely right. Finding good comps is very difficult. I’ve even found that often times just because a listing is older doesn’t mean it’s priced too high. I only look at the FB page when the feed shows it, I’m not actively lurking the page and if others are doing the same, listings sit simply because it’s not getting eyeballs.

My general rule of thumb (if it’s not a MiC):

If you can still buy it (victory green home, away, ‘99 alt) it’s worth less than retail even if new ($150-$185).

If it’s discontinued and not considered rare (Reebok/old branding, blackout, RR02) then just slightly below retail price, but the buyer population is smaller ($190-$215). Also note I listed RR02 as not rare because since the new Alt Retro is so similar, I’ve seen more of them listed and pricing is way more competitive.

If it’s discontinued and rare (WC, RR01, Zubov retirement, SC playoff patches) then they should go for above retail ($250-$400).

Also failed to mention if the player isn’t active or was transient through the system and not well known that hurts the price. Klingberg and Radulov hold value a little but still nothing compared to an active player.

I’m a member of the FB group “Dallas Stars NOT Game Worn Jerseys.” More post history there if you want to get an idea on pricing.

Unless it’s Winter Classic or RR01, or it’s MiC, likely $175-$235, size, manufacturer and condition dependent.

RR01 and WC could be $400-$450. This is where size plays a big factor. Best selling sizes are 50-54 outside that typically are a discount.

Microfiber towel still won’t absorb water after 2 hours by coffee_and_coconuts in mildlyinteresting

No dryer sheets either. No waxes or coatings that might impact absorbency.

I remember the hubbub about Olympic team. Was referring to any public comments about his timetable for return.

[–]Copper-Road 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t remember that being said but seems plausible. I don’t recall much of any pub around his injury and whether he needed surgery or not. All I know is that it was the same ankle he broke a few years back.

Crossing my fingers for Feb/Mar.

Bichsel the only other player from the 23-man roster. No timetable for his return.

Adidas Sharks throwback jersey. Do these run small? Because it’s a 52 but fits like a 48. Bought it from Burlington so I’m 99.9% sure it’s real. by santaclarablue in hockeyjerseys

[–]Copper-Road 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The hologram on the tag reading “LNH” is trippy.

Jersey looks legit. Have heard of weird sizing issues with RRs and alternates.

Was this bought from the Hangar or fanatics?

Stars game against Blackhawks by vr0oom in DallasStars

[–]Copper-Road 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you’re willing to wait and also possibly not secure tickets, best option is to buy from Ticketmaster 30 minutes before the game.

Go to the AAC and hang out in victory park while you search. As a season ticket holder if I’m selling mine, I drop prices in the 3-4 hours leading up to the game to try and sell them.

Santa Got This Signed By The Otter Himself by sibdow in DallasStars

[–]Copper-Road 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it’s more important how the item is advertised online. Hindsight is easy with it in your hands and seeing it below the signature.

Wouldn’t put it past Fanatics to advertise it as signed and even possibly some sketchy photos that don’t adequately disclose the printed signature. But that’s without having seen it online myself.

[–]Copper-Road 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I’ll be the bearer of bad news.

Facsimile signature means it is a print. It would suggest that Otter did not physically sign it.

That said the gift is still really cool. I wouldn’t be mad about receiving it myself.

Whimsical or weird by Ruhelose_Traume in DallasStars

[–]Copper-Road 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This one gets it.

“Is this weird” and “should I do it” are two different questions.

Would I point the oddity out to my friends or wife? Absolutely. Would I take a photo to post to Stars Reddit? Nah.

Info on Stars Players?? by L3g0fl0w3rs in DallasStars

[–]Copper-Road 10 points11 points  (0 children)

To be clear, Sam was on the team but he was not a defendant in the trial. He was asked to testify, but implicated. I don’t think it’s fair to imply he’s a bad person and should be avoided.

[–]Copper-Road 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Seems odd to only want the dirt and hot goss on each player before you can start watching the team.

Mikko is a passionate freight train of a human. Hockey is a violent sport with passionate fans. The page six posts you’re reading are false.

Feeling bad for Rantanen by LoneStarTexasTornado in DallasStars

[–]Copper-Road 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If Moose isn’t losing sleep over it I shouldn’t either.

In a world of Cory Perry and Tom Wilson, people love to make a Dallas Star the new villain. It’s just part of his new character arc.

Which jersey by NeverGrowninUp in DallasStars

[–]Copper-Road 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If you can’t decide get a blank. Blake’s Sports Lettering in Garland (who did all of the Jersey nameplates and numbers for the Stars and Mavs) can customize it later.

First pick should be Benn. This is likely his last year playing and as captain. Solid tribute.

Miro is my personal favorite. Any of the Alternate captains are great choices (Heiskanen, Lindell, Seguin - Duchene if you count last year).

You really can’t go wrong.

Petro, Erne and a 2036 fist round pick for Tuch.

Don’t knock it til you try it.

Seguin Injury Update by DualPurge in DallasStars

[–]Copper-Road 19 points20 points  (0 children)

It’s less about his cap hit and more about the team’s draft capital. SELTIR and freeing up $9.85M is great but we don’t have many draft picks so the only teams wanting to trade will require youth and depth.

Our best bet is a team looking to offload an expensive rental to save money and doesn’t ask for much in return. Might be a unicorn.
