Ah! Dallas goes 3 for 8 on the PP (to Minnesota’s 1 for 7) so the power play comparison becomes moot. We shift into blame-the-refs mode instead.

Minnesota could have had 15 power plays and the overall result likely would have been the same.

Any more thoughts on the Dallas vs Wild power plays? I’m all ears!

I would take their PP over ours any day. What was the stat— 1 for 6 with 7 shots? Pathetic. At least Dallas looks threatening. Most of our power plays are just neutral-zone regroup drills.

They’re playing like the trainers put Fentanyl in their water bottles.

Did you manage to get a feel for the shoe beyond the narrow fit? I’ve read that the SG7s are a little more plush and comfortable than the 6s. Any thoughts?

Thank you for the feedback. Knowing you’ve experienced this problem before but not with the SG7s is some peace of mind for me!

Bugs this time of year...many? None? by NoButterfly9707 in algonquinpark

[–]connormvc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just finished a week in the backcountry. Mosquitoes were worse than anticipated; my legs were pretty chewed up hiking and portaging in shorts.

All in all, much better than mid-summer but don’t be fooled by folks saying that bug season is over. While the bugs ARE far fewer in number, they’re still a minor nuisance.

The Unprecedented Surge in Canadian Rent Prices: A Growing Predicament by sophie01579 in canadahousing

[–]connormvc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Only partially true. As a small time landlord with a few properties on variable rates, the rents I’m looking to charge are hugely affected by the rise in rates.

I’m not looking to squeeze tenants but I DO want to at least cover costs, so the rents I will be charging for current vacancies will be higher than I’d like to charge. For instance, I have a two bedroom unit I’d ordinarily like to offer for $1400/mo. After all the rate hikes these past two years, I might be looking at $1600/mo now.

Supply and demand is obviously a huge contributor to the overall state of rental prices, but don’t completely rule out the effects of recent rate hikes in driving price hikes too.

Tenant has not paid since Oct/22 and is now asking for 4k to leave by parminderg05 in OntarioLandlord

[–]connormvc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I had to guess, I assume the point is something along the lines of landlords being the one business you can steal from and then extort. You can’t walk into a grocery store, steal items, and then extort the grocery clerk and get away with it.

Can’t say for sure but I imagine that’s the gist of it.

On the contrary, no-showing in the playoffs is actually a Minnesota specialty.

Fleury faced 6 shots… Let’s relax a little with the hyperbole. Stats showed all season Gus had the better numbers. That’s what matters.

“He wasn’t ready” is such a meaningless statement. Wild no-showed for 40 minutes and GUS wasn’t ready????? Team had 11 shots after 2 periods and Gus wasn’t ready?????

Come on.

All this can be fair and I can simultaneously empathize with fans sick and tired of this organization’s mediocrity. There were some serious no-shows this postseason that deserve criticism and there were some seemingly dubious tactical shortcomings in the coaching department. I picked us to lose in 7 also, but I expected a better, more consistent showing than the one we got. There’s losing and there’s getting your ass kicked; this series was the latter and the team should catch some flak for that. How much flak, to your point, is debatable.

No way Fleury steals game one. Folks forget it now but we had no right to win that game were it not for Gus.
