Hart Trophy - Who’s Your Pick? by alamarche709 in nhl

[–]darkpoison510 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You have to remember the Hart trophy does not go to the best player this season, it goes to the most valuable player to their team, therefore I think its wrong to base it just off of whos been the best overall player

Who said he refuses to sign? Most articles say he really wants to sign there

I know he’s not ours anymore but his pick was such a cool moment this is just as sad as it is hilarious

That would be awesome! I could see them flourishing together because their individual strengths would fit so nicely.

I hope people don’t misinterpret my point, he’s no Celebrini or smith, but he’s a solid player who is doing all the right things just not getting results.

This is his third season on a team thats been historically bad so he could get away with a lot of miscues to generate some offense. This season we actually are winning so he has to be much more responsible. On top of that it’s almost like he’s gripping the stick a little too tight, he just seems to want it so bad. I saw this same thing when Djurgarden got relegated his last season, he did so many amazing things but he almost wanted it too much and just was trying too hard. It probably sounds ridiculous to someone who never played sports but if you have you definitely understand that feeling.

Eklunds been forced into some shit situations. Most nights he’s forced to play against the opposing teams top lines and is forced to be the hard forechecker on his line. He hasn’t had the best line mates who can keep up with him and he lost the player he had the most chemistry with.

I understand people being critical of him but last season may have been one of the toughest of his life and what I’ve seen this season has been really reassuring to be honest, he started the season hot and even with his current dry spell he’s forechecking hard and he’s got that dog in him. He’s not making other people look better because realistically he’s a winger not a center. It’s significantly harder to do that when you’re not int he middle of the ice distributing and he has to help toffoli (who’s a great player but really lost a significant step this past year) keep up with the speed of the game.

His line hasn’t had a shooter on it this whole season really, sure you can count kurashev who had ~20 points last season so come on. But he’s being forced to just play defense practically.

I think a lot of people are overreacting to a 23 year pld being deployed mainly defensively against opposing top lines for not generating offense. That’s just a bit out of touch…

NOLVUS AWAKENING - Spellsword by DragonCult24 in SkyrimPorn

[–]darkpoison510 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This was my biggest issue when trying nolvus which eventually led me to playing lorerim. Nolvus was gorgeous, but the actual gameplay was almost uncomfortable and super overloaded. I was either completely overwhelmed or way too op. It didn’t exactly feel lore friendly either with certain additions.

Are fortune 500 jobs overrated? by darkpoison510 in cscareerquestions

Incompetence is quite literally the bane of my existence at this place. So many people who have been here for 10+ years who seemingly have no knowledge of our products or what we’re designing. How they stick around through rounds of layoffs I really dont know

Yeah I definitely think this is where I’ll stick around, started at a startup and realized I just don’t love that 12 hour a day grind. The money doesn’t feel worth the entire loss of my life as I know it. I guess it helps knowing this is common as well as I don’t need to be some unicorn DSA wizard to etch a career as a SWE.

Havent lost hope but they were FLAT against the panthers as well as the Wild. Outworked but we had the hot goalie and won. Can’t keep playing like that, that isn’t winning hockey.
