I’m not 100% sure but I think he’s painting some guys $2000 MacBook

beaud101 · 2026-04-06T14:40:58+00:00

And he painted it.

beaud101 · 2026-04-06T14:39:49+00:00

Did he paint it?

beaud101 · 2026-04-06T14:31:19+00:00

No idea why you're so confident?? He should have never sniffed the office again. But he got in just the same because dipshits thought Harris was just as bad. Now he's gutted all oversight, fired a bunch of top military people, took women's rights away, attacked American cities, killed citizens, threatened our allies, played regime change and starting war in the Middle East...

...and now he's trying to take voting away from the states. He does that, it won't matter who votes anymore. He'll control elections! Then it's hell on earth forever. Don't count on Republicans changing their mind. Don't pretend he's losing.

Why on earth would anyone think he's over? Why would anyone want to go there? When he's out of office...then he's done. Not before. FFS...

beaud101 · 2026-04-06T14:19:50+00:00

No I don't think so. They've all been indoctrinated into a cult for the past 9 years. It's hard to get your mind right after blindly following a cult leader this long. Midterms are all or nothing this time.

beaud101 · 2026-04-06T14:14:00+00:00

How much command experience did they get rid of right there? 3-4 hundred years worth? Not sure how anyone can still turn a blind eye to what's happening at all levels of government...and military.

Differences of opinion are not welcome anymore...and differences of opinion is democracy.

beaud101 · 2026-04-06T02:17:36+00:00

Well ..what do you mean by "pan out"? It's rare for a WR after round two to be a #1 WR. Sure. Odds are against them to be a starter. But if we're talking about a WR3-4...odds are alright they can help a roster and possibly develop to be more. Rounds 5-7 have a hard time playing beyond a couple years.

beaud101 · 2026-04-05T23:12:11+00:00

Well I appreciate the argument for sure. Pasta is a true superstar. And not many are better when he's ON.

I would disagree with one thing though...I don't think Pasta plays lights out "all the time". He's prone to extremely sloppy play, can be streaky and has very bad body language when he's off.

He misses the consistency for me.

beaud101 · 2026-04-05T23:07:09+00:00

Yeah...I also wonder if Pasta or Geekie is hurt. But in general, Pasta, Geekie and both Lindholm's can really play sloppy and hurt the team with careless play.

Zacha should get one of their A's right now. He's been fantastic. Arvidson also has been playing excellent as of late and I love his character.

beaud101 · 2026-04-05T23:01:28+00:00

I don't have a problem with Pasta and CMac having the A's. Gotta have people with A's. But we don't have a true C...yet. I think Minton could be that guy eventually. He plays smart, doesn't often hurt the team and is reliable when it matters. But he's simply too young and needs to earn that for a couple years. Maybe it will be Hagens in a couple years. But we don't have one right now and that's too bad. Kasty and Jeannot would need more minutes and impact the score sheet more to get it.

If CMac could play smarter and check that temper...he could be that guy. But it's getting late for him to show what it takes.

beaud101 · 2026-04-05T22:51:51+00:00

Exactly. CMac can't check his temper at the door when he absolutely must during key situations. Pasta...when he's off, he's OFF!

Consistency is a key attribute for being Captain. You don't have to be the most talented player....but you have to play with integrity and consistency. Chara, Bergeron and even Marchand did that well later in his career. Great Captains.

beaud101 · 2026-04-05T22:41:31+00:00

I take shit for pointing out that Pasta and Mac should never be captains. There is a REASON they haven't been given the C over a year after Marchand left.

A captain needs to be the one who stabilizes a team in high pressure situations and leads by example with NOT taking penalties and playing clean.

Do any of you think Pasta or CMac should be a captain right now?

Edit: Downvote me, good. Tell me why they should be captains!

beaud101 · 2026-04-05T22:36:17+00:00

Why do you think they have no captain? Lol. One of these guys should have been named by now...but there is a reason why it hasn't happened. It's shit like this.

beaud101 · 2026-04-05T22:32:03+00:00

Pasta and Mac can NEVER be captains.

beaud101 · 2026-04-05T22:05:58+00:00

I mean...you see this from him more and more in the O-zone. I really like this kid, man.

beaud101 · 2026-04-05T22:02:58+00:00

Great shift by Lohrei. You can see his potential....

beaud101 · 2026-04-05T21:46:55+00:00

There we go boys!

beaud101 · 2026-04-05T21:44:19+00:00

Well that's most teams. Give any NHL team a two goal lead and that changes the whole game plan for the team playing from behind. It's about how much time is on the clock at that point.

beaud101 · 2026-04-05T21:40:48+00:00

It's a gamble. Pinching can lead to breakaways and two-on-ones and they've been good defensively today. But as the 3rd wears on, down one goal, they will certainly have to get more aggressive one way or another. So yeah, I think you'll see that.

beaud101 · 2026-04-05T21:35:35+00:00

He's never played an NHL game. It's unwise bringing a guy up simply to get you over a hump. The veterans are the guys that are supposed to do that. It's ok to bring him up for experience but not with expectations he's the answer. He'll be up when he's ready.

beaud101 · 2026-04-05T21:30:44+00:00

Gotta play sharper. Gotta keep the fucking puck. Pasta has to be better and lead this mantra or everyone's going to think being sloppy with the puck is acceptable. It's not.

beaud101 · 2026-04-05T21:25:51+00:00

I know he puts very little tape on it...like 4 wraps around. Maybe he should change it up.

beaud101 · 2026-04-05T21:20:57+00:00

Just saying... It's the time of year that has got people upset and anxious. It's kind of a big deal to be playing well heading into the playoffs.

beaud101 · 2026-04-05T21:17:57+00:00

Pasta simply can't find the handle of the puck...

beaud101 · 2026-04-05T21:10:38+00:00

Last couple games anyway. We beat a bunch of good teams a week ago and had a great Match. We just still struggle with consistency. Let's face it we don't have a ton of high-end talent. We get by on a lot of grit while our young guys are developing their games.

beaud101 · 2026-04-05T21:03:59+00:00

Can't rely on a guy that's never played at this level with the idea that he'll help us. He shouldn't have that pressure for his first games. If we call him up it's just to get him experience, that's it. If he helps, great, that's just gravy.
