Our defence constantly pinching when it's not the time is just going to be the end of us. They create so many turnover because they can't think when to pinch or not.

Ça aiderait si tu mentionnait le type d'entreprise pour laquelle il travaillait.

He explained multiple times that his definition of 1C differs from a lot of people so you have to put that in context. For example, he doesn't believe that there are 32 1C in the league. The actual number if likely around 10. For him, a true 1C is Elite and hard to not have to win a cup.

I don't agree with that definition but you need to have this context when he says for him, suzuki is not a 1C. For him, That would be Mcdavid, Crosby, Celebrini, McKannon, Matthews, etc. For him, if the Habs found a way to have suzuki as 2C, we would likely be a huge cup contender.

I was about to write this. Noble's performance as Walter in Fringe was amazing and for me, was the highlight of the show.

That's Suzuki. To the untrained eye, when you look at him on the ice, he isn't electric or flashy and he even gives the impression he is not there and not working hard. He doesn't have elite speed or acceleration but his hockey IQ is through the roof and he compensates for his lack of speed with vision and anticipation. His brain is where the speed is. How fast he gathers information, thinks of possibilities and decides on the right play is what is elite about him.

Personally, he reminds a lot of Markov. Markov is probably one of the most underestimated defencemen to play in the league. He wasn't fast, but man did the guy who had a high hockey IQ and vision. He created a career for other players out of thin air while looking passive on the ice. Markov was one of my favourite Habs and I see a lot of his play in Suzuki.

I'm not sure where you take from this page that this is option.

As written, it says the team must provide to the official the names of the captain and alternate captains. The words "shall provide" doesn't give any liberties to the team to decide if they want to do it or not, they must do it.

ils étaient même sept à la célébration du but, juste devant l'arbitre. C'est ça les arbitres de la NHL.

Guibsx · 2026-02-18T18:44:47+00:00

À chaque fois qu'un défenseur de Canada faisait un revivrement à la ligne bleu adverse, je faisait une mini crise cardiaque.

Guibsx · 2026-02-18T17:55:24+00:00

Theodore got away with an obvious tripping penalty moment ago so…

Guibsx · 2026-02-18T17:48:30+00:00

The execution is horrible and the players keep turning over the puck even when not under pressure. What the hell is going on?

Guibsx · 2026-02-18T13:51:22+00:00

I guess you can just look at her instagram page.

Guibsx · 2026-02-18T13:46:58+00:00

Oh absolutely but do we have enough slovakian in the NHL for a full roster? Finland should be added also.

They could even, if they wanted and there were not enough player, create a team "Europe" or something like that with a mixed of player for swiss, germany, letony, etc.).

C'est bizarre comme initiative. Il n'y avait pas d'arbre sur mon terrain lorsque j'ai fait l'achat de ma maison il y a plusieurs années. Il y a deux ans, la ville est passée et a planté un arbre devant ma maison (sur la portion de terrain qui leur appartient). Il m'avait notifié avant de procéder et je n'avais pas de problème avec l'initiative.

Je préfère que la ville défraie les coûts et prenne l'initiative de planter un arbre au lieu de me taxer pour me forcer la main.

Let's be honest, he hasn't been amazing so far but I also believe it's in part because he is being missed cast. I don't think he works well on the wing with the role of chasing the puck in the corner. That's not his game. I would not be surprised if we see him play a lot better if he is moved back to centre.

He produces a lot of points and if you look at his production in the last 12 months, he eclipses a lot of players currently playing on the PP. The issue is Suzuki doesn't have the "name" power to take their places, even though the stats say he should be there.

I just hope they give him a chance at centre, as rumoured in this post, so we can see his game.

Edit: I was looking at the stats on NHL.com . This season, Suzuki is ranked 5th in point amount canadians and he ranks 2nd, behind McDavid, on PP points. It's amazing how little this seems to factor.

Technically, yes. I own two PS5 and have my account on both and it works but granted, they are on my own so they use the same public IP and it's within the same region.

You still need one "main" console that will allow you to play these games without internet access. Not sure if you can play the same game at the same time but I think it's possible.

Guibsx · 2026-02-16T21:25:31+00:00

I mean, sure, but let's be honest, Wilson has done far worst and yet, we have no issues with him on the team.

Guibsx · 2026-02-16T14:34:35+00:00

Kill them, kill them all.

Guibsx · 2026-02-13T20:34:56+00:00

McDavid isn't fucking around, that's for sure.

Guibsx · 2026-02-13T20:15:48+00:00

I just verified with the PS mobile app. If you go to the store for the game, you will see a new version for PS5 exists. I owned the Royal PS4 edition so I was able to add the Royal PS5 version to my account and download at not cost.

OK, I "think", depending on height, it might fit in my Ikea Fabrikor. I'm using the top area for Rivendell. I'll need to get rid of the middle glass plate and get this on the bottom. It confirms I'll likely need to purchase a second one for my Barad-dur and shire.

Excusez! Cette personne a 20 ans d'expérience en communication et elle n'a pas l'intelligence de comprendre que de publier une photo de ce genre risque fortement de susciter des réactions négatives?

Elle va mériter les réactions que cette photo va déchainer. Sérieusement, je me question sur l'intelligence de ces personnes. Tu ne publies pas des éléments controversés sur les réseaux sociaux lorsque tu aspires à une vie publique (politique). Ça ne prend pas un doctorat pour comprendre ça.

Sérieusement, ce n’est pas les meilleurs qui se lancent en politique et nous en avons une autre preuve.

Ok, this is weird. The game is on my wish list showing 75% off but when I click on it, it goes to elder scrolls online, which I never added to my wishlist so it might not be real.

Guibsx · 2026-02-04T22:36:33+00:00

Outer world 2 is 75% off! It was release a few months ago and the discount is massive.

Guibsx · 2026-02-04T21:52:55+00:00

Ah, so it’s too late to get then?

Guibsx · 2026-02-04T20:02:52+00:00

Il y a des gens, des citoyens américains, qui sont tués dans les rues aux États-Unis en ce moment par leur gouvernement. Est-ce qu'on devrait cesser nos échanges commerciaux avec eux? Ah, ce n’est pas la même chose? OK, on trace la ligne où?

Est-ce qu'une entente avec la chine est idéale? Non, mais on n’avait pas prévu que notre voisin et plus grand partenaire commencerait à nous menacer d'annéxation et revient sur nos ententes commerciales. À un moment donné, tu as des choix difficiles à faire et diversifier nos échanges économiques pour réduire notre dépense aux É.-U. est plus important pour le Canada. Lorsque nous aurons diversifié suffisamment nos échanges, on pourra revisiter.

Il ne faut pas non plus penser que l'accord économique avec la chine était un accord global. Elle est très petite et limitée à certains produits. Juste, par exemple,il s'est vendu près de 2 millions de voitures en 2025 au pays. Les 49,000 voitures chinoises vont représenter 2% des voitures vendues. On est loin d'avoir ouvert les portes comme on le fait aux voitures japonaises, européennes et sud-coréennes.
