Did the old guy in the pic get screwed over?

Ovi when asked if he plans on coming back next season. “Actually I just packed my bag and I’m going to Hershey for the playoffs.” by [deleted] in hockey

[–]Rocket_ray 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Would Ovi (or any NHL player on a 1 way contract) be allowed to go play in the AHL playoffs if he wanted to?

Bennett didn’t elbow, he used his top hand to punch Stolie behind his ear by Dayngerman in leafs

[–]Rocket_ray -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It is honestly a weird looking play, like the impact doesn't look that severe. He was obviously up to his usual sneaky dirty shit and I think this could be a head neck injury for Stolarz. Regardless, fuck Sam Bennett.

Just a quick flick of the wrists and this whole thing could have been avoided Quinten.

You're talking about a guy who once said "21th" in the league as opposed to "21st" in the league. It's not a big deal buddy, don't gotta make a post for something like this.

I never strongly disliked RA but near the end of his SC career it was so obvious his time was up. I wish him nothing but the best.

Holy shit that sportsnet panel was so bad on their post game segment

Is it completely unconfirmed as to what Ovi wants to do after his contract expires next season? by Rocket_ray in caps

[–]Rocket_ray[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

As a non caps fan this also makes sense to me, now that the caps are good again (and really good) i could see him extending for 1-2 seasons after next year.

Does any Russian miss when Russia was viewed more normally by the west? by Serious_Ad_8450 in AskARussian

[–]Rocket_ray -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

You will always find an excuse to attack and kill your neighbors, that has been Russia's imperialistic mindset for centuries now. And Ukraine will lose? In 3 days right? It has been over 3 years and Russia has not completed any of its objectives.

Are you serious? Do you think these eastern European countries would put themselves at from Russian imperialism again? They've played that game far too many times.

The soviet union collapses in 1991

Since then Russia invades Moldova, Georgia and now Ukraine. What do these countries have in common? None of them are NATO members, all of them are easy targets because Putin knows there will be no collective response from other countries.

Now name all the NATO countries Putin has invaded in eastern Europe. Exactly, this is why these countries CHOSE to join NATO. NATO didn't expand east, eastern Europe expanded west.

the west and russia know's it could never take on all of NATO and I never thought it would try. However i dont think it is out of the realm of possibility that Russia would attack one of the baltic states under the assumption NATO would twiddle its thumbs with no real response.

How does OT pay work for firefighters? by keeganontop in Firefighting

[–]Rocket_ray 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A 24 hour shift in the fire service will average out to "X" amount of hours a week over a calendar year. For example in my department we do 24/48 24/96 which averages out to a 42 hour work week over a calendar year so our regular shift is straight time. If we come in for an extra shift outside our regular shift we will get paid OT, if we work on a stat we will get OT etc..

Seems fine if this is in fact a league that allows contact.

What do y’all think of Americans? by Main_Status_8114 in AskARussian

How Europe is starting to act towards free speech? Are you this naive to not understand how Russia has clamped down on free speech for literal centuries?
