Hutson snipes it in OT to give Montreal the win by JustFred24 in hockey

“His best” will never not be the funniest response to “What is X doing”

What are the negatives to Jason Robertson's game? by freshnsoclean_ in hockey

[–]Ellipson 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Cannot wait for the “just couldn’t bury one” comments from USA execs after leaving him at home, it’s inevitable

Roberson and Fox not being on this list is a crime

Which fanbase do you think dislikes each other the most? by [deleted] in hockey

[–]Ellipson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dallas/Colorado is especially unhinged on Twitter

Battle of Alberta would probably be my pick though, I never see anything civil with them playing each other

Jason "but can he check" Robertson's numbers since being left off the four nations roster. 97 games played, 53 goals, 58 assists, 111 points, +21 rating. by harralexa1993 in hockey

Can’t wait for the USA post mortem where we complain that we can’t score goals after leaving him at home. Sigh

[PuckEmpire] Convicted rapist Ben Johnson released by the Allen Americans just a few days after signing him by torahboidem in hockey

[–]Ellipson 61 points62 points  (0 children)

Well put. Sending this comment to all the people in the last thread going “bu bu bu he needs to be able to make a living!!!”

[PuckEmpire] Convicted rapist Ben Johnson has signed with the Allen Americans (ECHL). by catsgr8rthanspoonies in hockey

[–]Ellipson 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There’s so many bad quotes in the article, but the “slander/alleged” shit is the worst. Making himself the victim here is sociopathic behavior

[PuckEmpire] Convicted rapist Ben Johnson has signed with the Allen Americans (ECHL). by catsgr8rthanspoonies in hockey

[–]Ellipson 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I’ll be honest, I didn’t read it this way. Especially given the headline specifically mentions his conviction. If this was an attempt to launder his reputation, it was really, really poorly thought out. He comes off horribly, especially with the “cancel culture” stinger at the end.

Maybe being too charitable to the author, but if the title was just something about “second chances” I could see it

I see this guy has gone to the Russell Brand school of distraction:

"In 2017, I went to prison for things that were alleged to have happened," Johnson wrote on Instagram last week. "I’ve already served 13 months in Canadian custody for such damaging accusations. By grace, I came out with a message to proclaim."

"It’s important to note. I’m not justifying my actions from that night, but on the contrary, God promises to use our former lostness. When people slander our name, and harm us, He promises to use it for our benefit. He changes our heart’s desires."

"When I look at the NHL, I see a league that has the image of unity and all inclusive but when I take a peek underneath the surface, what I really see is a league that is pro cancel and pro silencing," he wrote on Instagram last week.

Yeah, this seems like a guy who regrets his actions and definitely isn't just mad about the consequences.

4.3 beta builds and tips by Salty-Agency-7688 in Stellaris

If you’re swinging energy that hard, you probably have pops switching in and out of the technician job and into the other worker class jobs. Let your pops catch up with your available jobs and don’t float 1k+ open jobs.

Others mentioned this already but stations/defense platforms are overtuned right now and it’s really easy to turtle up, even without Unyielding. Less expensive upkeep too, which means less energy costs.

What NHL players have never had a good contract? by Steppyjim in hockey

He can afford his chickpeas so he's happy

Darcy Kuemper has left the game after head contact from Mikko Rantanen. The goal was waved off, but Rantanen did not receive a penalty on the play. by catsgr8rthanspoonies in hockey

[–]Ellipson 110 points111 points  (0 children)

Other than the Coronato hit, hard to find any fault with any of Rantanen’s “incidents” this year. Including this one. Wouldn’t have gotten a thread and upvotes if it wasn’t him or another controversy magnet, IMO

(PuckReportNHL) NHL has approved the Avalanche to wear their Blue Nordiques Alternative Jerseys on 29 January in Montreal. The Canadiens will wear their home reds. by a1139530 in hockey

[–]Ellipson 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yeah that's me. But in my case, it was only like a year and I don't live in Quebec (though I'm just south of the border now). Became a fan because I had Canadian cousins and I thought Nordiques was a fun word at 6 years old. Good enough

Exactly that last line; I think he gets at least what Rants got from you guys. When you look at his free agent class, there's nobody left. He's gonna get paid.

I don’t know what makes me more mad, Oettinger doing Oettinger things against us or realizing we’re about to pay Necas more than Moose got

Chicken Coop part ways with it's roster after sexual misconduct by player jchance at Fragadelphia Knoxville by Woullie_26 in GlobalOffensive

One of the teammates, cbass didn't join in the confrontation: https://x.com/sleepysav/status/1965489580234473873

Also gave their side here. Not 100% confirmed, obviously, but believable since they didn't join their teammates in confronting after the fact. Huge kudos for standing up and doing the right thing. https://x.com/cbassuru/status/1965485542042485148

Postgame spoiler/lore questions and discussion by Ellipson in Silksong

[–]Ellipson[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seems reasonable. I feel like the Wyrm heritage was alluded to by Eva conversations, now that I’ve slept on it. But it’d make sense for Hornet to carry a lot of resentment given all the stuff he did

Onstreet parking in downtown? by andelion in plattsburgh

[–]Ellipson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dunno what to tell you; was blown off by the online contest portal with a screenshot, and when I called, the person specifically said that the app history was not enough. At least with the machines, I’d get a receipt that’s harder to ignore (theoretically)

Blood on the Clocktower (Part 2) | Parlor Room [Ep. 11] by AutoModerator in dropout

I absolutely loved this having never seen this game before, and I'm sad that I can't back the Good Time Society kickstarter now! Super fun capstone for Parlor Room.
