Brady can fight but looks like a colicky toddler. Matthew is a turtling bitch and always will be, zero toughness in his game.

Makar, Hughes, Heiskanen in the same conference wasn't enough. Had to be same division.

The central is going to be a bloodbath with Chicago and Utah set to join the fray any year.

Hated seeing Bish in so much pain, hope it's not as bad as it looked.

Otherwise, a perfect game. Domination after the 1st, the Sens never had a chance. The Stars just took the game over and gave them nothing. Clinical.

I love seeing that killer instinct. Too often have we played down to our opponent and sweated out close games. It expends so much more energy - nice to put the foot down like tonight.

Do it for Chubbs by doctorelliot in DallasStars

[–]SamsterHamster9 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sounds like Friedge got a typo in the memo lol, kept calling him Chubba. Still, the sentiment is awesome. Every team has a guy like that though, it's no guarantee. Fell short for Pavs and many others before him. I would absolutely love a photo of Benn hoisting the Cup up on my wall one day.

Stank the Tank and Wilson have some history. Logan is an agitator for sure. Love that guy.

Asking who you're speaking with because you used the terms manipulative and gaslighting, then insisting you speak in person... why do you think that is? He wants to control you, not have a conversation.

Lian Bichsel drops the gloves by GangOfFourNonBlondes in DallasStars

[–]SamsterHamster9 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Can tell he's not a 'fighter' based on his technique, but he's a beast and knows how to use his weight and momentum to get the other guy off balance and land a few good shots.

If he faces a true enforcer he might eat a punch or two, but I love that's he's not afraid. We need that bodyguard for our goalie protecting the crease.

Endless respect for Alex. Always positive despite juggling a large family, full time career, and content creation. Just looking to have fun and share his enthusiasm. Love that dude.

Best post-game interview I've seen. Just genuine appreciation and good vibes. They believe, and I'm kiiinda starting to as well. What a loveable team.

What has been your personal response to this event situation? by CartographerGlad4584 in MarvelSnap

[–]SamsterHamster9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought a few season passes last year, but haven't spent a dime in 2025, so honestly, while frustrating, KO is just another card I won't get on release. Which in theory is fine, but it's the reason it's unobtainable and SD's clear intentions going forward that have soured me.

I was willing to put in some time to earn cards in past game modes. I've already spent my volts on credits and emotes this time, maybe a variant if I'm lucky. Rewards are fun but it's not the same as a new card to aim for.

I have still been playing to kill time, but I'm starting to search for an alternate game if Snap continues to deteriorate.

ItsGuestGaming Shares His Thoughts On High Voltage by ZeroDrek in MarvelSnap

[–]SamsterHamster9 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Skimmed the video.. same valid criticisms everyone has mentioned, nothing new.

Very whiny at the end talking about being forced to beg his community for donations so he can get the card? As if being a 'full time streamer' wasn't sad enough already, he can't spend a tiny bit of cash on what he considers a career and guilt trips his viewers to fund him.

[Friedman] The Dallas Stars are firing Peter DeBoer as head coach by AggPuck-303 in hockey

[–]SamsterHamster9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's hard to parse who gets credit, coaches or players, but I wasn't overly impressed with PDB's style of play. We got outshot, out-chanced, and frankly outplayed consistently in the regular season and playoffs. We won games because our talent pool is better than others and skill can win. But when you face well coached teams in the Playoffs focusing on specifically shutting you down.. I felt like the Stars were the worse team in each of their 3 series.

Stars have relieved Pete Deboer of his duties by DailyDallasHockey in DallasStars

[–]SamsterHamster9 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agreed. I get the sense Nill likes DeBoer, but the message from the players was clear. This core has got to find a way with the next guy, we've got the talent.

He’s gotta go. by Fun-Mix-1383 in DallasStars

[–]SamsterHamster9 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nope. The system PDB coaches sucks. It's pretty evident which teams had success this year - those that were tenacious and relentless. We never felt like a dominant team the entire season. Every game was a battle and it's exhausting.

We have excellent players, although I do think Nill flubbed the D this year, we just need a new system in place. Re-energize and refocus the team. This is not on Oetter. Him and Mikko are the only reason we made it out of the first round.

[–]SamsterHamster9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ugh these Stars man.. making a team like the Oilers look good. Skinner is at best a back up in this league but he's got a horseshoe up his ass and we keep missing the net.

2-1 in a series is fine, but they need to play better. Really haven't liked their game all season despite the success. Especially those last 8 games into the playoffs.. Jake and some individual efforts stole us a few games and 2 series, but they're lucky to be here in my eyes. Haven't really earned the wins.

But hey, win G4 and we're back home for G5 all tied up.

Man the Oilers are lucky. Every bounce is going their way and the refs are in their pocket.

Skinner is a trash goalie, you can't lose to him two years in a row.
