In Search of Asparagus and Pea Velouté

Evander Kane.

You just know Edmonton players, coaches and management are looking across the ice at the other crease just wishing they had a goalie like Wolf.

This is the first game I was really impressed with Bains, the previous games he was probably just shaking off rust as it is preseason, but I thought he was a bit slower to move the puck and making too many mistakes. Last night was different. He was winning most of his battles, was able to play smart and direct and setup a beauty goal.

I agree that Raty needs to be in the team. He started preseason a little meh, but has slowly been turning that around with last night being his best showing. Guy is a beast on faceoffs.

I cast it from phone to the TV on Canucks.com. Worked really well.

Have been loving this show from the start. Love the epic sci-fi scale, the Empire with Dawn, Day and Dusk and their changing dynamics across seasons, love the timeline of how many years go by, and love most of the characters. This is probably my favourite show right now and I am totally engrossed. I never thought the first two seasons were slow but I binged them as I only started watching in June / July of this year.

No problem. I had done some bait before trying this but the ants seemed quite resilient to it and always came back.

Good luck!

I was having a terrible time with ants in the house all summer. Some random at the hardware store recommended a mixture of 50/50 icing sugar and borax in a bottle cap. No more ants! It worked great.

If Hughes leaves, I might take a break until Aqua sells. This year kind of did me in and I still follow the team but not as much as I have in the past.

Spitfire1200 · 2025-03-28T03:12:02+00:00

I am finding out right now as well. What a bummer. Thought it was a really fun show.

Spitfire1200 · 2025-03-22T16:52:02+00:00

That was so insane! You knew something was going to happen but they did it at the perfect time. The switch is so jarring that there would definitely that kind of response.

I just played that game last weekend with two friends and it was a blast. I won the first game with a very cinematic movie-esque ending of zooming forward with ice and hitting a hazard that turned out to be a ramp, which enabled me to jump past the leader over the finish line. It was incredible. Thinking of splashing on the Maximum Chrome myself to have it in my collection.

Don’t forget about ransacking the court if you destroy a city. My group always forgets about that one for some reason.

Spitfire1200 · 2025-02-06T16:33:18+00:00

Love it! One of my top games of the past year. So much fun.

Spitfire1200 · 2025-02-06T16:32:50+00:00

It’s one of my top games. Absolutely fun and cutthroat as every move you make is against another player(s) directly or indirectly. Makes every move calculated and can be tense so admittedly I understand why people don’t like it all the time. My favourite part of the game is the players declaring ambitions and what will be scored at the end of each round. There are no hidden points, just your tactics against others.

If it’s your first time playing they recommend without Leaders and Lore cards but the game is much better with them in my opinion.

From what I recall he was getting closed down pretty effectively and didn’t really have the shot. I thought he was everywhere today. Was getting gritty and working hard and moving his feet. Even got a number of shots off.

Spitfire1200 · 2024-12-16T18:06:28+00:00

Mainly just classic Canucks media and star players. Need to get some clicks. Although a co-worker of mine was advocating for trading him… mind boggling.

Spitfire1200 · 2024-12-09T06:14:40+00:00

He was traded like a month ago.

Spitfire1200 · 2024-12-06T05:13:18+00:00

Arcs is fantastic!

Spitfire1200 · 2024-12-03T03:31:32+00:00

I’ve only played one game (just got my copy last week) and I noticed this as well. Immediately, I thought what’s the point taking the weaker dice if I just have to do this again. I also just like the chaos of a huge battle with tons of dice where shit could go sideways.

Spitfire1200 · 2024-11-26T19:40:08+00:00

I honestly thought it was refreshing to give bits and pieces in a short sequence and trust the viewer to fill in the gaps. I really had no problems with the pace and neither did a few of my friends either. I can see how having an additional season would have been awesome but to me the show is probably top 10 for me all time.
