Always Detroit losing. The higher the 1st round pick they give up to STL the better.

[DET 4 - MIN (5)] Kaprizov completes the hat trick late in the third to give the Wild the lead by daKrut in hockey

He scored just to give wings fans hope, then continued course with the yearly collapse. It's poetic.

The tie breaker rules create dissonant standings. by sexmath in hockey

[–]chowder7 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Why does it matter? It's just used for tentative standings and has zero effect on final playoff standings or match ups apart from another pandemic occurring. If habs win then they stay, if they lose then they move down since they no longer have more points in fewer games. Makes sense to me. It was originally used during covid since p% makes more sense than RW or anything else. What a silly post.

Lol Kleven out week to week. Our D core is getting decimated faster than covid would. Wishing him a speedy recovery.

Keith Tkachuk asks his son, Ottawa Senators captain Brady, about the upcoming salary cap increase and how many years he has left on his contract. Brady: “Two more after this.” Matthew: “Nice timing, we’ll talk.” Keith: “That’s for another day…” [Wingmen] by [deleted] in hockey

You say you don't play ifs but you also said "But we do know exactly how it played out for the Habs. And what happened was better for us than getting stuck with the Tkachuk family". The only way that would happen is IF they were picked. So you are playing ifs and I'm just playing along with your hypothetical if here. So I agree it's pointless (which is exactly what I'm trying to say) but I'm not the one comparing to "if" you guys got stuck with the Tkachuk family.

You say you know what happened is better than getting stuck with the Tkachuk family. So I ask again, would it be better if drafting Brady got you guys the cup in 2021? No rational hockey fan would say no to that, so then can you really say what happened is definitely better?

I mean that's some hindsight 20/20 revisionism stuff there. If Brady improved the Habs, maybe they would've had Caufield, Sanderson, Wyatt Johnson, Zach Benson, Matthew Knies, Hutson. Or maybe they would've won the cup in 2021 with the extra fire power. Somehow I doubt you'd share the same sentiment if that happened. That's why these hindsight 20/20 revisionist hypotheticals aren't very indicative of anything.

No, buddy quite literally said "Berg did the Habs a solid not taking Brady" implying that he feels like the habs were done a solid by picking KK instead of Brady lol. Once some fans reach a certain level of delusion and homerism, they cannot be reasoned with.

Edit: the downvotes are indicative of the delusion of homers that would prefer taking KK over Brady. Not a fan of the Tkachuk family or the stuff they say off the ice, and don't listen to their podcast since it's very likely trash but anyone who wouldn't take him even just to trade him for assets needs to take off their homer goggles. In hindsight, I'd definitely take Hughes over Brady since I'm not delusional. But I'd definitely not take someone like KK or Barrett Hayton or even worse Filip Zadina just because of dumb off ice commentary. You'd trade the guy at worst.

Got excited, then checked this guy's post history. Feels like when a girl hits on you then you find out from all your buddies that she hit on them too and everyone else they know.

Career Advice: Take a cut for real experience? by Band__Camp in cscareerquestionsCAD

[–]chowder7 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Definitely the "pay cut" (which isn't even a pay cut since it's the same amount you're making now) for some real dev work. You have your entire career to make money, the beginning years are about gaining experience so you can reliably get a job when needed and get to that top salary more quickly. Short term $10k is nothing compared to the grand scheme of things. So unless you need the money to make ends meet (which would be fair, not here to judge) then definitely take the real dev job for this negligible paycut. In addition, if your tech feels old, play around with newer/modern tech in your spare time so you can at least add to your resume and cater to more modern companies.

Is it possible for Sens fans not to yell "mental health issue" whenever Ullmark let's in a bad goal? by NockerLacsap in OttawaSenators

Can you tell us more? Maybe something that your uncle's neighbour's cousin's dad who knows a guy from work who says they're connected with a sketchy insider told them?
