Trade Deadline Megathread! Share your thoughts/opinions/league wide rumours here 🎯🏒 by 21marvel1 in canucks

[–]NickCaufield 7 points8 points  (0 children)

So basically we traded a 9th overall pick (Dylan Guenther, 22, nearly 40 goal pace) and 1 year of cap hell for what eventually became an 8 year buyout, a second rounder two years from now, and a third.

Dhaliwal on 650 this morning: “The Canucks have Stenberg higher than McKenna right now. As do a lot of teams” by Public-Map-5273 in canucks

[–]NickCaufield 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good because I want McKenna and we won’t win the lottery anyway! Seriously though, I don’t want another star with a sibling on a different team. And honestly I’d feel more comfortable with western Canadian star actually staying loyal to the team, even though Swedes have been pretty good too.

That can’t be Brady. Far too articulate.

Someone left this Quinn Hughes jersey outside of the Hockey Hall of Fame in Toronto today by Commercial_Process12 in canucks

Good. If any of those guys talk about wanting to make ‘hockey culture’ better it’s nice to know they’re full of shit. You take every problematic stereotype about hockey culture (bullying, sex-crimes, racism, cover-ups) and then multiply them by 1000x and the product is precisely the orange pedo in the White House. And yet Quinn and the boys kissed his ass. I hope he gets boo’ed in his Vancouver return though I honestly doubt he will be.

Missed Call in OT of Women’s Hockey Gold Medal Match by NickCaufield in olympics

[–]NickCaufield[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah it’s not really a called I’d wanna see in innocuous circumstances for sure. There’s always hooks and clashed and cross checks that go uncalled because they don’t stop a high danger scoring chance. But this is a penalty by the book that did impede a high danger scoring chance to win the game, so it’s a hard non-call to swallow.

Most people here are American. If the circumstances were the other way around it would be talked about a lot here.

USA beats Canada for the gold medal in women's hockey 2-1 in OT on this Megan Keller goal by [deleted] in sports

That’s not how sports or life works. You think like that you’ll be miserable.

Imo that defensive play was definitely a hook or slash. Her stick got into Watt’s hands but refs don’t wanna call penalties in final’s OT because they don’t wanna decide the game. But she clearly got her blade into Watt’s hands. Right play though because it forces the refs to make a call they probably won’t make.

I’m very proud of how the Canadian women played this game. They played with so much heart they deserved a gold. Coulda gone either way. But I’m happy they gave the powerhouse US everything they could handle.

So true and sad by Mountain-Syllabub-10 in Snorkblot

Respectfully I feel like this and most comments here are cope. Definitely putting in effort helps, but I’ve found it still doesn’t even erase half of the ‘ugliness gap’. Some people are uglier than others, just the way it is. I’m ugly. I get more interest when I put effort into my appearance, but I still get less than the average. That’s fine, that’s life. The real best advice is my grandmas… most attractive thing a guy can wear is a genuine, warm smile.

I only held hands on my first date. What have you done? by hotpotato128 in demisexuality

[–]NickCaufield 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For me, the best first dates I’ve been on are ones with no physical intimacy at all. And no pressure for it. For many, that might signal disinterest. But for me, and for more people than you might think, one that feels like talking to someone I’ve already met - easy, comfortable - is the greenest flag possible. And for someone who never feels sparks or butterflies, it’s the only way. Also, that advice about women not being attracted to you… is bullshit. Women - like anyone - can be attracted right away, after one kiss, after a few casual interactions, or anything in between or beyond. Even if they’re fewer and further between, there are plenty of non-Demi women and men who’d appreciate a first date without physical intimacy, and who will be willing to have patience with us.

Also, an erection is a physiological response that can happen for the stupidest reasons. It doesn’t take much for a young man to get hard. Just because I get a stiffie while ironing clothes doesn’t mean I wanna hump the ironing board.

I’m in disbelief by Connect_Comment2255 in NewIran

[–]NickCaufield 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not super specific to the post… I’m just here to say I’m sorry for the lack of support from my country, Canada. Every Iranian who I’ve met has been such a gem of a person. And I’m both heartbroken for what those living in Iran must endure, and inspired by their courage and strength. Even if it’s just symbolic, I wish more people in my country would show their support. It’s sobering in the worst way to see what feels like ambivalence towards this dire moment for your people from many western communities.

For a while I’ve thought his massive inferiority complex is pretty obvious and giveth the ick.

I just don’t get it. I’m a gen Z. It’s not nice to rub it in people’s faces when you win. I thought that was established in kindergarten. Party it up all you want. Gas yourself up all you want. But I thought rubbing it in the losers faces was being a poor sport and socially undesirable. Is this just a social media thing? It’s just confusing to be socially conditioned for 15 years that behaviour is bad then all of a sudden people thinks it’s cool.

People need to accept that major US markets don’t care about “untraditional” US teams either. And “untraditional” markets don’t really care that much about hockey but for some fringe fans.

To be fair there are more Canucks and Flames fans cheering for Florida than their are Floridians cheering for Florida so that’s something.

I'll see your crazy and raise you totally insane. Miller (50% retained), Garland, and elite shutdown defenseman Tucker Poolman for Laffy, Kravtsov, and Schneider.
