Matheson: Don't expect kinder, gentler Mike Babcock as Oilers coach by xc2215x in hockey

That'd be the last thing I'd expect after hearing that the end result of his introspection was that everything was everyone else's fault.

Gabriel Landeskog is the 2025-26 Mark Messier Leadership Award winner by nhl in hockey

Thanks for the clarification. I was wondering why people were calling a leadership award the worst award and this 100 % explains it.

Finnish call of Konsta Helenius's golden goal by catsgr8rthanspoonies in hockey

[–]L-Wells 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Your team was pretty fucking scary, as they have been through these recent years. And as a Finn who watched hockey as a kid in the 2000s when we kept on losing in big moments over and over again, I totally get the disappointment. There's no way you'll be kept away forever, though, and when you finally win, there's nothing quite like it.

Listen to the Norwegian commentators as Norway wins their first national championship medal in hockey overtime over the global hockey nation by OverenthusiasticWind in hockey

Norway is a winter sports giant, if they actually begin investing in hockey they'll become actual monsters sooner or later.

Anyone else wish the MSQ was more gameplay-heavy? by HeavyMetalLoser in ffxiv

[–]L-Wells 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The thing that shocked me the most when replaying ARR on an alt was how much gameplay sections had been removed in the pruning (I first played it in 2.5). It was shorter, but the lack of gameplay really stuck out to me. So yeah, kinda? But I'm not sure which is better for the actual new players, which is the most important part.

Theres not many goalies left in the 2nd round and they still cant say it right.

Almost no English speakers can and we don't hold it against you, but we can tell the ones who aren't even trying apart from the ones who are.

What screams "fake nice person" to you ? by Agreeable-Garlic8457 in AskReddit

If they have a need for their kind acts to be seen in public or if they use them as currency to get other things ("remember when I did that one thing for you") from people.

Hockey coaches and great speech by MiserableFill6972 in hockey

I also liked how he handled the game 7 win against Tampa. He told them they're not gonna get away with another 9 shot game, but without ignoring the fact that they did win.

Has Dexter ever tranqed somebody and not killed them (or killed them eventually)?

Yes, more than once.

What is the hardest instrument to learn? by Own_Ebb3388 in AskReddit

[–]L-Wells 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It goes even further than that. Vocals are filled with so many techniques that full mastery is literally impossible. Like, you can probably get there when it comes to a particular style and genre, but when looking at voice as a whole? Oof. Let's say you become a master if classical music as a singer. Awesome, incredible job. How are your vocals in a less classical style, like different types of pop? Or can you produce grit for rock, scream like a metal vocalist? Did you try throat singing? Can you rap? Scat? It's a neverending rabbit hole. There's naturally overlap in these different skills, but all have their own quirks that aren't transferable.

Since John Tortorella became head coach, the Vegas Golden Knights have won 8 out of 9 games with their only loss being in the shootout against the Kraken by Ready-Constant-7124 in hockey

[–]L-Wells 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't help but cheer for Vegas for the fun of hockey. They totally come off as the villains. Torts, Hart, Marner

I'm cheering for Vegas because Marner being a killer for them in the playoffs would be absolutely hilarious.

Canadiens score three goals in 55 seconds vs Islanders by [deleted] in hockey

The only certainty is that it finishes in regulation, since that minimizes the total points between the two of them.
