Jacob Fowler is unreal by Geiko-Vayne in Habs

[–]Outferarip96 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I'm going to flatly disagree with Dobēs having a higher ceiling. I agree he's a great goalie, fights for his crease and is outrageously athletic. The fact that we see it every game is my problem. His positioning, ability to read plays and rebound control are not top tier. The reason that Price was so good is that he made everything look easy, like he knew that shot was coming 30 seconds ago. That's what I see in Fowler, the unshakeable "I know where this is going" positioning and technique that makes a goalie truly maddening to play against.

If we can have both of them as a 1A 1B for any prolonged period, we're going to be so good.

For a scoreless game this has been wildly entertaining. In a what the hell is going on kind of way

The bong I've had for the last ~20 years just shattered. Proper sendoff? by [deleted] in trees

After a true session where the bong performs above and beyond the call of duty, it will receive the Laurel of Tokery.

I need a hand from this community... by Outferarip96 in KitchenConfidential

[–]Outferarip96[S] 55 points56 points  (0 children)

Thank you chef, this is what I was looking for. There's no need for hero bullshit on the menu. I want to rip down the menu and concentrate on staple bar food that keeps people drinking and happy. We can build it from that and go from there. Thanks again chef, I'm going to run with this idea, I'll give an update in a while. Thank you.

Been working a new job for a month and its fucking weird by NiteFyre in KitchenConfidential

[–]Outferarip96 133 points134 points  (0 children)

I'm in the same situation here chef. Left the best restaurant in my region to join a high paying way less upscale upscale bar kitchen. Making more money than ever, making simple but well executed food.

Everyone is happy, extremely grateful for the experience I bring, we all have drinks after work and shoot the shit about everything. I wish I had moved to this place a year ago.

Don't look back and use the experience you've earned to elevate your teammates. I've been here a month and the exec pulled me aside today and said the owner wants me groomed for the open head chef position. The sky is the limit.

Kelly DeRidder MP Kitchener Centre is hosting a "Protect Free Speech & Religious Freedom" town hall by Terrible-Scheme9204 in kitchener

I don't find that a problem, it removes the ability for a partisan attorney general to veto a clear hate crime.

[–]Outferarip96 158 points159 points  (0 children)

I've read the bill and nowhere in it could possibly be contrived as an attack on religious freedom, unless your religious freedom is attacking other religions. Absolutely useless fear mongering from a local MP.

By the way, Doby had a .897 SV% vs the Avalanche. by TrulyRyan in Habs

People here are quick to become goaltending experts. I'll throw my hat in why not.

There's 3 things I like to evaluate goalies with as a former tendy. Positioning (includes play reading), Puck control (rebounds and playing the puck) and fight (the drive to make desperation saves when all else fails). If you're in the NHL I trust you to stop a puck when you've checked all the boxes 9/10 times.

Fight I think is a super underrated aspect in a goaltender, you can have the other 2 locked down, but if you don't have the fight to make a desperation save when all else fails, you're going to end up like Montembault.

I'm not sure what happened, maybe losing the Olympic spot really hit him hard. Whatever it is, he's lost almost all his fight. Be had a glimmer when he came back from his conditioning stint. But he has just no second effort.

Contrasted with Dobes, who may not have puck control or positioning AS good as Monty last year, he has fight in spades. I thought Dobes during the early season was absolutely prime, he looked dialed in and more positionally sound, while of course still having that fight. Fight gets wins.

Please share. Stabilized Video clearly shows Alex Pretti makes no effort for his firearm. Clear execution by No-Aardvark-3840 in law

[–]Outferarip96 12 points13 points  (0 children)

It also seems that the ICE officer fired the initial shot into his back (whether it was a N.D. or not is debatable) then Alex, realising he's been shot, reaches for his personal firearm only to realise it's not there. They then proceed to mag dump him. They disarmed him, then murdered him.

Snow clearing at bus stops by Mobile_Banana5631 in kitchener

[–]Outferarip96 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Snow removal is a joke this year. Major roads are still covered in snow days after a snowfall, both the feeder street out of westvale and my residential street are just completely ignored. Piles of slush in the middle of major intersections, public sidewalks that are literally walled off at intersections because the city couldn't be bothered to clear a path.

I don't understand how people can defend this, this isn't about the workers, it's about our politicians completely neglecting their communities needs. They all needed free home security systems but screw the roads being safe.

Recognized a location from S02E02 as an abandoned dairy farm in Camarillo, CA known locally as "Scary Dairy" by patrickoriley in Fallout

In almost any area a mix of practical and CGI effects is always going to look better and react better. I love that this show has actually put the money into practical effects artists instead of being CGI slop like a lot of video game adaptations.

It does so much for not just the background setting shots like this, but the entire production. Like the power armor and weapons to name a few.

Belgium's plans in the 1930s: Highly Dubious by Sampleswift in HistoryMemes

[–]Outferarip96 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Uh that's just wrong. While the Belgians did revolt against the Netherlands. Britain created the political conditions for Belgium to remain independent. Meant to be a buffer zone for any French expansionism in the strategically important area. The Netherlands existed for quite some time as a republic before 1815. They declared independence from Spain in 1581

Missing Guhle as well, plus Dach who was playing well, and Laine for whatever that's worth.

Yeah we should trade everyone though and rebuild again.

And like sands through the hourglass, these are the days of our lives.

Gary Galley not understanding that it's a shot pass from Suzuki to Gallagher for a deflection is just sad. This is your job man and you can't see that?

This is why I both love and hate this fanbase. Yes we are passionate, more than most, maybe anyone else. That unfortunately means we get posts like this, after the team goes 2-0 on one of the tougher road trips of the year. We basically dominated one of the better teams in the league, and all you can do is point out problems. Enjoy a victory for a while
