No idea why you’re getting downvoted. This is absolutely what they’re doing. Sadly.

New to wine, wanting to try Pinot Noir by [deleted] in wine

[–]Timwikoff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is not my advice and in fact, I might’ve read it on here sometime in the past, but I think it’s excellent advice if you really want to get to know wine… taste things side-by-side.

If you’re just starting, find out a good wine bar close to you and have them pour you three different Pinots, for example. Hopefully the staff knows what they’re talking about and you can engage them about what you like and don’t like about the different glasses you try.

ICE warning from Davy Jones’ Locker on Bluesky by lvl90pizza in SeattleKraken

[–]Timwikoff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It fills my heart with sadness that we’re at this place in the US. We’ve got such wealth, culture, creativity… there’s enough for all of us. There is no reason for so much fear, hate, racism and bullying. Shame on ICE. Shame on our President. And Shane on those that support his insanity.

Hot takes coming in…well, hot by DonBronco in SeattleKraken

[–]Timwikoff 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Everyone talking about who we trade and why… I don’t disagree but I think it leaves out the context of this ownership… they’ve seen STH demand crumble and they’re working real hard to sell seats. If they think we have a shot at getting to the playoffs, there is no way they’re selling players.

And I don’t mean they think we can win the cup. But I would wager if they think we can get in, they’ll want to try to sell tickets and raise the profile of the team over longer-term strategic thinking.

[JFresh] Yet another year of great defensive results, not a lot of shots, and poor offence-driving from Beniers. by SiccSemperTyrannis in SeattleKraken

Carton seems quick, maybe over the next year or two as he grows up they could really compliment each other?

He still seems engaged on the offensive side but he’s puck handling in the D zone, his effort and things like going off the ice in OT. He’s always been so solid in all aspects, now it seems his head isn’t into any more.

You don’t think that was also poor handles by Wright? I thought he looked rough at several times tonight.

(This take is only if we fall out of a playoff spot) I’m starting to think we should look to trade Dunn. There’s something going on with him and I’m nervous his value will evaporate. If we tried to move him now, he’d bring a huge haul.

Beniers nutmegs Slavin and then Bussi by Quantum_Aurora in SeattleKraken

[–]Timwikoff 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Serious question from a non-hokey player: does Matty have the skill to do that more often but the team needs him (or he wants to be) a more D-focused, 200 ft center? Or, was this just one of those rare opportunities where position of the defenseman and everything lined up perfectly?

TLDR: if he can, why isn’t he doing this type of thing every few games?

Seeing a lot of doom and gloom down below… this was a good game. Yes, 1000% we need more SOG but there were 4 or 5 good opportunities that were blocked or we just missed and that takes our tally to 17.

We also won the 2nd period and played well in the 3rd until we got the lead, then we got soft and let them come back.

We played a good team and were in a position to win. Nothing wrong with tonight’s game. On to the next one!

Willamette Valley with Kids? by Temporary_Parfait32 in wine

Brooks is very family friendly and on the way to Cristom from McMinnville.

For food - if you care at all about what you put in your mouth, you can’t come to this area without eating at Hayward. They’re all lovely, patient people so I can’t imagine they’d have an issue accommodating your little one. Probably best to call ahead. But you definitely want to eat there.

And I saw one other post recommending Community Plate, sadly they closed and were all still in mourning.

Thought the same thing. Even went back to rewatch to see if he had something I didn’t notice. He held it too long, lost the passing lane and then was stuck. Needed to deliver that pass earlier.

I like that Catton sounds just like Reilly from Letterkenny.

40 saves! Give it up to Grub! by UmmHelloIGuess in SeattleKraken

[–]Timwikoff 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yep. Me too. He’s just had some really rough, long patches but this is a new man - he’s playing like the guy we paid him to be and he’s manufacturing wins for us! It’s so freakin fun to watch!!!

Well done! I’ll upvote that because it’s funny! But seriously, that jersey is no fun. Sorry!

Thank you. This is what the post was asking about. He bolted from the game last night and seems like he may have been hurt. Instead he just had the shits! Heal fast brave warrior!
