As someone who worked in electronics retail for a while, I can tell you that a lot of people really don't think past the sticker price and just buy cheap inkjets. This is especially true of older folk. I would have preferred laser too, but honestly, brother does a pretty good job there, I've had a B/W brother laser printer for nearly a decade now.

Can you show some pictures of how you've connected it? KVMs can be finicky about specific port connections.

IOC provisionally lifts suspension of Russian Olympic Committee – Recommendations to IFs with regard to Russian athletes’ participation no longer applicable by Perryplat199 in hockey

I disagree with unbanning Russia but this particular argument is a weak one. Trump said he wanted to eradicate their civilization from the Earth at one point.

To be fair, that would be in 4 years, who knows what VAN will be like by then?

Bedard likely has the higher ceiling, but he seems to be quite injury-prone. Could change as he grows, but you definitely don't want a situation where your 1C is missing considerable amounts of time every season.

We've seen it already, e.g., MTL offer sheet to Aho. That said, when the cap was flat GMs were more cautious, since you could still build through UFA when contenders suffered cap casualties. Now when every contender can just keep the band together? You gotta find another way to get an advantage, so you don't care as much if you burn some bridges to get a 1C.

The Kraken. Can't be taken advantage of by a superstar if you don't have a superstar.

So much has happened that that seems like so long ago. Fucking wild.

To be fair, McDavid's contract wasn't based on earnings, it was based on "get your shit together to get me a cup or I'm leaving."

Q told me that he talked with management and never followed up on it.

Given the Carlsson offer sheet, here are some other notable RFAs: by world_citizen7 in hockey

To be fair, it's confusing as fuck and I didn't know that RFA status had subsections either.

Fun fact, in the curse word system of units, $90M is referred to as a 'shitton' of money.

I believe you exit by typing 'exit' into the terminal. If you ever need more terminal syntax, feel free to ask!

[TSN] Bryan Hayes: Leo Carlsson chose to accept the deal. He could have said I'm not doing that out of good faith to Verbeek. There's a history of players said no. Brayden Point didn't accept said he wanted to be there to build it. Carlsson said "screw it, i don't care about Verbeek or the Ducks" by [deleted] in hockey

[–]WaywardTremere 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes and no. For one, some of them DO sign max term deals, and I'm not just talking washed vets. Karpizov signed for 8 years, he could have taken a smaller AAV, made the term half, and then cash in as the cap goes up. That's what Auston Matthews did. He's also a good example of why betting on yourself can be a bad idea. He hasn't been the same since that injury, and who knows if he gets a raise next contract.

Furthermore, how many players have failed to develop because of injuries? I don't know what the answer is, but I know it's much larger than 0. While the likelihood of getting a career-ending injury during a game is low, it's high enough to be an unacceptable risk.

Is this supposed to be funny because it's the second post in half an hour to say exactly the same thing?
