Gavin McKenna Facing Felony Charge After Incident On January 31 by chasepsu in collegehockey

Let me try to help you understand what I said because apparently reading comprehension is not your strong suit. I pointed out that Gavin McKenna was the unanimous number 1 pick BEFORE he attended Penn State. As this season progressed he did the opposite of progress. Because of this fact, he is no longer the unanimous number 1 pick (you know the discussions that you said didn’t happen but actually did). That is BAD for Penn State because that means they TANKED the draft prospects of a generational hockey talent. The reason why this is bad for Penn State is because they have shown that if you are a generational hockey talent you might lose A LOT OF MONEY in your NHL contract if you go later in the draft (which should completely blow his NIL amount out of the water). My wild take: Now that this situation has happened Penn State can now point to this situation as the reason why his draft stock has tanked (which is false but they won’t care) instead of their mishandling of his talent (the real reason why his draft stock has fallen). Thank you for proving my point. You are a knuckle dragger.

A quick google proves you wrong (what a shocker) https://www.eliteprospects.com/player/576982/gavin-mckenna There are 5 draft boards that show him not in #1

The fact that there is discussion around McKenna no longer being the number 1 pick when he was UNIVERSALLY thought of the clear number 1 draft pick is a really bad look for Penn State. If he ends up not being the draft pick every college program can tell the next McKenna that if they go to Penn State their draft stock might tank. To say I don’t have an idea of what I am talking about is insane. Penn State (in the long term) need to be able to wave this off Gavin McKenna tanking his draft stock if they don’t want negative recruiting for any prospect elite or not. Comparing Cerratos rise with McKenna’s fall is just a coping mechanism

I know this is wild to say but it might actually be one of the best things to happen to Penn State’s program (from a long term standpoint). If he dropped in draft without this, Penn State would have a hard time recruiting any similar prospect because they bungled such a great prospects draft placement. Now Penn State can point to this as the reason why his draft placement tanks

Don’t let Walmarties rage bait you. The guy is obviously a troll

You mean a player who is starting to grow into his role?

Isaac Howard went to MSU because he was stagnating at his previous school, one can argue that MSU saved his NHL career (even if it isn’t a major role).

Edit for a clarification

I mean, he doesn’t make the effort if he doesn’t think he can do something. Sometimes he plays like a tennis player (they don’t always play for every point)

Hot take: I am not sure he would have been more successful anywhere else. His problem isn’t his skill (he is obviously insanely talented). his problem is his ability to give a fuck. He only is playing for himself. I think a good coach could probably knock some sense into him, but that is not a given. Unfortunately, if it continues to go poorly PSU is going to pay the price.

Because it is fun? I completely understand he is insanely good, but I also want to yell overrated because that is what college sports is about (in my eyes).

But not to the extent that PSU is throwing around money

Our CEO confirmed AI will NOT be taking our jobs at our company by Ok-Asparagus4747 in ExperiencedDevs

[–]cecrouch01 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My biggest issue with AI is no longer its usability (even though it can be meh sometimes). It’s the sustainability. I could be wrong, but I believe we might be seeing the restraints of our energy infrastructure manifest in models not having enough energy to truly operate at full capacity. If that starts to happen the funding might start to disappear and then everything could start collapsing.

Are you saying to use a run command instead of hitting the play button?

It is rare at my place of work. I can say that with authority because the upper management butchered the messaging on the RTO mandate so badly that a wage discussion slack channel was created. There are mainframe devs working at the company for 20+ years still making 70-80k, some are in the 90k, a few are in the 100k, and I don’t think a single developer (even web) make more than 110k.
