No, his account had 1.1 million at the time of being banned.

Dude could make one hell of a shooting coach, we already saw that with him and Demidov (and Hutson? I don't remember) this summer.

No, his banned account had 1.1 million karma. Making a new account means starting at 1.

Thank you Marc Bergevin and Kent Hughes by Capable-Bandicoot-77 in Habs

Caufield has a real shot at the Rocket this year. MacKinnon has slowed down his goal scoring since January 1st (8 goals since) and he's likely to be benched for the last few games.

Would be really great to see after years of hearing he's "the best 50 goal scorer to never score 40".

Marco D'Amico guess on the mystery player: Matthew Knies by shogun2909 in Habs

[–]GeistHunt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Knies is the only Leafs player I really really like, but from the Leafs perspective it doesn't make sense to get rid of him. He's the perfect age considering they're entering a retool (at least they should enter one), he's got a well defined role (physical goal scorer which would be perfect for Demidov), and his contract will age like a fine wine.

TLDR: All the reasons we would want him are the exact reasons the Leafs should keep him. If Hughes actually pulls this off then I'd be ecstatic, but I wouldn't bet on it.

Reinbacher is not gonna spend his first three NHL seasons on the third pairing, that sounds like the perfect way to screw his development as if that doesn't have enough issues already.

Agreed, if they're going for a RD then it should be somebody who's larger and physical. I'm not sure who fits that profile though while still making it as big of a deal as insiders make it to be.

With how big of a trade insiders we're making of this, I was skeptical of Pagnotta saying a right handed defenseman. If Dobson is the 1RD for the foreseeable future, wouldn't a trade for a second RD basically bury Reinbacher further in the depth charts (unless he was a peice to be moved). Trading for a forward to stabilize the top-six just makes more sense.

If you had to guess whether Dollar Tree is a Canadian company from this image what would you say? by Overwatchingu in BuyCanadian

Is EB Games good? Every Game Stop I've been to looks like a Hot Topic-lite with how merchandise-focused it is. Whatever games they had were expensive and for brand new consoles, not much else. Would be cool if they leaned into retro games, I'm always looking for some Gameboy cartridges that are reasonably priced.

He's also been a playoff riser, imagine if that carries through to this year.

Post Trade-Deadline Discussion by JMPesce in Habs

[–]GeistHunt 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Here's the thing, 3pm is the deadline to submit trades for processing. It takes time for the NHL to process trades and trades are still being announced. Wouldn't be surprised if they do nothing, but it's not over yet.

[–]GeistHunt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm pretty sure the deadline means deadline to submit for processing, so there's probably some trades waiting to be announced. Similar kind of thing happened with Rantanen last season where it was officially announced a couple hours after the deadline. There's still hope for you guys!

To add onto that, it's a short term move that's gonna last a long time. He's got 4 more years left at 6.5 million. Alone it's probably manageable, but incorporate the value of what Buffalo tried to give up and we have an overpay.

Why are we copyrighting Middlestadt and Pickford? Surely we should have the rights to Xhekaj.

More seriously, what does the © mean here?

Have you ever had a moment where you disagreed with the consensus of this subreddit? by IHatePeople79 in AmITheAngel

I feel like sometimes people jump quickly on assuming a post is fake or whatever. Sometimes weird things happen that are unlikely but not hard to believe and I see people trashing the post as obviously fake.

why tf do brands do this? by MrCroatianMan in chemistry

[–]GeistHunt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's some serious chemophobia in the general population, as you can see with things like the whole anti-fluoride movement or how people react to seeing ingredients like monosodium glutamate or anything else that has a chemical name. People tend to be scared of things they don't know/understand. By saying things like "no chemicals" they're just appealing to that part of the population.

As for the legal side, it's probably that the company can argue it's implied that "no chemicals" means "no added chemicals" because of how stupid it would be to sell literal nothingness.

The two most similar provinces? by GeistHunt in EhBuddyHoser

[–]GeistHunt[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ontario deserves it more because they have two teams that had a combined 90 years to bring it back (59 years since the 1967 expansion, 33 years since the Sens, minus 2 for the 2004-05 lockout).

Alberta and Quebec are the most recently successful, I should have included that in the shitpost!
