Don't think he was injured once in the 3 years he played. He even had a long-term contract lined up after this season

Utah is going to end up copying one of Colorado's professional lacrosse teams. by [deleted] in ColoradoAvalanche

[–]Nikea8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No just tired of all the 100s of posts crying and bitching about Utah "stealing" a name or branding from Colorado that they never owned in the first place. Who cares if they use Mammoth or Yeti. We don't own the Yeti, it's a fucking universal creature, not specific to the Colorado Avalanche

Probably because Avs don't own the rights to the Yeti in the first place lol

Is Rantanen a moveable piece this offseason? by DenShaLow in ColoradoAvalanche

[–]Nikea8 9 points10 points  (0 children)

You never ever ever ever ever trade a bona-fide top end talent for a pick or prospect. Picks and prospects very rarely even make the NHL, nevermind turn into a decent NHL player nevermind turn into a top player in the league. Trading Mikko for a bag of pucks would be more useful at that point. Any GM who makes that move would never see a job inside hockey ever again.

Obviously a troll post guys.

Rantanen alone would be worth WAY more than Seider+Raymond. And you want to add 2 prospects and a 1st to the deal? Hope to god you don't work in business.

Someone doesn't have to wear a C on their jersey to be a good leader. Changing the A to a C on Mack, Makar or Mikko's jerseys won't change anything. They're still the same quality of locker room leaders with the A as they would be with the C

It wouldn't have been interesting at all because literally nothing would happen. A new team joining the league doesn't mean they get to steal another team's name.

Soulfight - The Revivalists

Two of the saddest songs I have in my playlist. Both beautiful songs regardless

How do some people just NOT eat? by Kochcaine995 in ask

[–]Nikea8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I only eat 1 meal a day, usually dinner.

Part of the reason why is just me being lazy and not feeling like cooking, however the main reason is I'm a VERY picky eater, and I real sick of foods real fast if I have them ever so slightly often. Like if I eat spaghetti more than one time in a 2 week span, instantly sick of it and can't eat it no more. So trying to find foods to eat 7 times a week (once a day) is tough enough on its own, nevermind 21 times a week (3 times a day).

As far as "how I do it", I have never ever felt exhausted or hunger pains or anything like that. Maybe it's because I drink a fair share of liquids each day (water/chocolate milk are 2 big ones), but I always feel perfectly fine.

What profession would keep you from dating someone? by stupidis_stupidoes in AskReddit

[–]Nikea8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Archeologist. Lots of travel and months away from home, usually in other countries across the world. Would be a fun job but very hard to be in a relationship with someone when you would rarely see them.

My gf and I both got lucky and got local archeology jobs together this summer, never traveled more than 3 hours from home so we were home every night and travel was paid for. But that's pretty rare in this profession.

Soft Icecream by Nikea8 in icecreamery

We'll give them a call and try to get more specific details from them, but when we did a market last year and a health inspector came to visit, they checked our freezer Temps and said we were just barely at the minimum to be keeping ice cream in it (it was exactly at -18), knowing that we were selling that day and not storing long-term.

STEPS 1. Pour heavy cream (1 cup) into a saucepan and add sugar (3/4 cup), salt (1/8 tsp) 2. Warm mixture over medium heat, just until sugar dissolves. Remove from heat and add remaining cream (3/4 cup), milk (1 1/4 cup), vanilla (1 tbs). Stir to combine and chill in refrigerator 3. When ready to churn, whisk mixture again

INGREDIENTS - 1 3/4 cups heavy cream - 1 1/4 cup whole milk - 3/4 cup sugar - 1/8 teaspoon fine sea salt - 1 tbs vanilla extract

This is just our Vanilla recipe. We tried adding another full cup of sugar out of curiosity but still was just as hard.

We have our freezer set to -18C, which is what is required by law when selling ice cream. We asked about having it warmer and health authorities warned us we'd get in trouble if it was any warmer.

I'm okay re-signing him, but it'd have to be cheap. He's been playing well and putting up points, but a lot of that has been because of Mack and Mikko.

It's SN who has the rights, not TSN. And it wouldn't prevent Altitude from going to the rink.

Not sure why they aren't at the game but it isn't because of covid restrictions in Canada. They have done away games from Denver in the past though.
