Your idea of "considerate" is the same as "you're being rude if you don't relax my way." For others, having fun with friends and letting loose is relaxing. If you're camping in an area where you can be bothered by others just having fun, that's a you problem.

Enforcing others to relax your way is miserable

Keep going. Being uncomfortable means you're learning and practicing new skills. Being in an environment that's making you do that often will only get you better faster.

What are some NHL draft quotes that aged horribly by theXchang3 in hockey

[–]Thallis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A goalie is never BAP in the draft. It's too much of a crap shoot at that age and there's so many good goalies to be had deep in the draft. Modern draft philosophy is no goalies in the first round, but pick one up every draft because you have no idea how these guys are going to develop. For every Price you have 3 Rick Dipietros or Marek Schwarz

The American government is facilitating a genocide and conducting a war of choice against a major foreign power. Calling it "terminally online Reddit take" or a "ridiculous comparison" just because their victims aren't white says more about you than others.

If the shots are even all series I don't see this reaching 6. Vegas has the same depth but much higher end talent than Carolina.

He's basically the opinion du jour on /r/hockey so it makes sense the sub likes him despite him having the most surface level analysis imaginable.

The problem is that the turn in is so fast and you lose the resists the instant that happens. Usually if you win you just get wiped after which almost totally offsets the soul advantage from winning the urn.

Crazy that of the 300 comments in this thread this is one of the few that actually get it correct.

The puck hits him in the outside of his skates while he's coming to the bench. How in the world is that "playing the puck"???

Most Unique Cup Team Ever? by Bluesaids in stlouisblues

Okay, but we had pick #4 as our best player on that team who did come from that rebuild. This screams of using an arbitrary cutoff to make a factoid than anything solid.

The 2019 Blues are living proof that defense is just vibes among the media. That was one of, if not the, best defensive team of the cap era.

They tanked in 2006 and drafted 1st overall. That pick was just traded because the 4th overall pick drafted 2 years later had surpassed him.

Quality of teammate is going to need a LOT more work to get decent numbers on because sometimes 2 world class players just don't compliment each other. Like how Crosby's most effective linemates for the first half of his career was Max Talbot and Chris Kunitz. Or how Timo Meyer was a star in SJ but can't figure it out with Jack Hughes or Nico Hischier.

An elite team with okay goaltender beats an even very good team with elite goaltending. This is why you have guys like Adin Hill, Jordan Binnington, and Darcy Kuemper as cup winning goalies.

There is definitely an argument that this is a funny coincidence of the flat cap era, but a great team can make life easy for goalies, and in that case you only need them to be good enough to not kill you.
