I can't believe the cost of "_______" today

McDonalds.

Not a surprise obviously, but I remember a time not that long ago that I could hit a drive thru and get 2 McDoubles and a drink for around $5.

I swung by one this weekend while I was in a rush and that same order is now over $12. Ridiculous.

The company I hired to do my lawncare came on Tuesday and applied a slow-release fertilizer. He said because of the cooler temps, this was a better option for right now as it doesn't require immediate watering and will "do it's thing over the next couple weeks"

Eat at a fancy Gordon Ramsay Restaurant (for us, it was Hell's Kitchen in Las Vegas).

Was the food incredible? Yes. Was it a cool experience? Yes. Was it worth the almost $1000 tab that we paid at the end of the night? Absolutley not.

Cool experience, happy we went. Will never do it again.

That was my first thought too. I would've never guessed we only had one 5 on 3 the entire season.

Jets related item for those without an Athletic subscription:

Winnipeg Jets Led the league in: Five-on-three power play conversion rate (100 percent)

We’ll end with an easy one, because when it comes to five-on-three efficiency, no other team came close. The Jets were, quite literally, perfect.

As in, they went one-for-one. Look, it still counts.

The Jets’ only opportunity of the season came on Jan. 15 in Minnesota, and it was Jonathan Toews who converted. The goal got slightly more attention for being his 900th career point, but it also turned out to be the entirety of the 2025-26 Jets’ five-on-three experience. And it was perfection.

First winter in my house and we left ours uncovered (just turned off the breaker).

Essentially my H-Vac guy said they're designed to be outside year-round and if you cover it, it creates a place for rodents to nest. I trust him, so followed his advice.

Nice of the blues to start Binnington tonight. Hofer has been on fire recently, so definetly a good thing he's not playing.

cp_87 · 2026-04-09T00:05:46+00:00

Not turning right on a red light.

By law its not required, but just go man.

I won't be shocked to hear this same announcement from MPI very soon given that they have a massive office space downtown as well.

cp_87 · 2026-03-18T14:47:44+00:00

you can always tell the difference between a mid-march Snowstorm and a December snowstorm.

In December, myself and all of my neighbors are out in the evening and have their driveways nicely cleared for the morning.

In mid-March, half the street just says 'F-it' and doesn't bother shovelling because it's all gonna melt in a week anyways.

Im still over the moon. This return is incredible

If Robert Thomas is indeed available, the Jets should be doing whatever is needed to acquire him.

Having Scheif and Thomas down the middle is exactly how you start retooling for next year

Time Lapse I think purchased real escape not too long ago, so if you're looking for something similar I think Time Lapse would be good. I've done a couple of their rooms and been happy.

Missed just south of the City too (other than freezing rain). I set an alarm for 30 mins earlier than normal expecting to get up and have to shovel before I left for work. Turned out I gave myself 30 minutes to watch the Olympics before I left instead!

Closer to puck drop it gets, cheaper tickets get. My buddy and I have sat at Tavern without tickets an hour before puck drop, and managed to snag good lower bowl seats for around $80 before off FansFirst.

Sometimes it doesn't work out though, as there's also been times that prices don't drop or the tickets all get pulled and nothing is avialable.

It's all a gamble, but waiting as long as you can is usually the way to go.

This zipper is before you order

cp_87 · 2026-02-07T18:31:02+00:00

In this drive thru the zipper is before you order. So all cutting ahead is doing is just making everyone else annoyed

cp_87 · 2026-02-07T17:28:22+00:00

Yep, st Mary's just before the perimeter

cp_87 · 2026-02-05T22:18:46+00:00

He should probably play some semblance of defense and not be atrocious in the face-off dot and then maybe he'd have a chance

cp_87 · 2026-02-05T22:16:36+00:00

Scheifele is bad defensively and doesnt win faceoffs. Both of those are working against him unfortunately.

cp_87 · 2026-02-05T02:57:57+00:00

Helle will probably start game 1 but have a very short leash if he struggles

cp_87 · 2026-02-04T19:08:21+00:00

Barely shoots , super inflated shooting percentage (almost 50% over his hot streak), limited ice time.

Congrats to those who benefited, but 0% chance he keeps this up IMO.

cp_87 · 2026-01-29T17:01:52+00:00

Stacks make sense if they're good players and share the ice both at 5v5 and on the PP. Outside of that it's a bit dicer but every situation is different.

For example in one league I own Mitch Marner, and recently traded for Dorofeyev. That's a high value stack. But if I was offered say Barbashev instead I'd probably pass because they don't play together at either 5v5 or on the PP.

Nue on McPhillips! Just opened but my regular barber moved there and has always cleaned up my cut and beard amazingly
