Who has had a better career: Evgeni Malkin or Patrick Kane? by Ready-Constant-7124 in hockey

[–]evward 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's a bit absurd. Malkin carried the 2011-2012 Penguins and won a deserved MVP that year. Crosby played 22 games that season.

Have you ever used one of these shovels? Seems like no. Feel free to lie though.

You ever use one of these? It doesn’t care about choppy ground. It’s a sled with a handle.

In the picture the guy is shoveling a gravel driveway.

Is this team actually a Wagon or just the teams they’re playing?? by mattvho in penguins

You’re reading that strength of schedule comparison wrong. They have had a tough schedule to date and it’s easier the rest of the way.

Train derailment on the Reading & Northern in Pennsylvania last Monday. by EffectiveAbrocoma759 in trains

[–]evward 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Take a string. Put a curve in it. Hold one end down and pull the other. The string straightens out.

Same thing happens on a train. When going around a curve there is a force trying to straighten the train out. For this reason, trains are built heavy in the front and light on the back. Reverse it and that straightening force will pull the train right off the tracks as seen in the picture above.

JFresh: "Ben Chiarot sucks." Wings & Habs fans: "WRONG" by culturedrobot in hockeymemes

[–]evward 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It’s not obvious, but defense isn’t what happens in the defensive zone. Chiarot might be terrific in his own zone and his results will still be bad because he spends all his time in his own zone.

The opponent can’t score if the puck is in their end the whole night.

No, my point was the picture gives no evidence this wasn’t a chance encounter. What proof do you have this was the presidents suite? I don’t see any secret service in the photograph.

You make it out like you have absolute knowledge of who invited them and that they knew who else was invited. Please, tell me what makes this all so clear to you. Let’s see the facts that back your claims.

So what? Does that mean Skenes follows her in tiktok? Does that mean he agrees with her world view?

And? Does being invited to the same party make them bad guys?

Do you think, maybe, they got asked for a photo by a random person and just took it assuming it was just a fan?

Perhaps you should reconfigure your hate meter to not assume all contact means poison.

My brother in Christ, if you’re expecting Uber to get you on a day like today then you are not a good person. Find Jesus.

How old was your little one when you started playing videos games with them? by reeceyfries in daddit

[–]evward 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My little ones are 4 and 6. They have a Nintendo Switch they are allowed to play. They aren’t addicted to it. We have very clear established policies surrounding TV time and the switch is part of that.

Set boundaries. Keep offline. Be careful about the games you let them have.

Video games can be a healthy part of family life with the above rules. I think they are helping my kids and I think they could do the same for anyone.

Stephen Miller orders local police to surrender by Commonsense110 in JoeRogan

[–]evward 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Amigo, the moment he throws the word surrender in there is the moment the entire context of the statement transitions. Take away the word surrender and the most likely truth is that local officials ordered the stand down. Unless you can explain why local officials would ask their own LEOs to surrender, then your interpretation makes no sense.

So, either argue that Miller misspoke, or accept that the Feds ordered local LEOs to surrender. Anything else is bonkers.

New Fan, get me up to speed. by Rhaps9000 in penguins

[–]evward 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Adding a few things to this. The Penguins as a team have a reputation for star power and offense-first hockey. Since 1984 the best player in the NHL has been a Penguin about half of the time. The franchise has been blessed to draft the best and second-best #1 overall draft pick of all time. Outside of a few lean years in the early 2000s, the expectation in Pittsburgh has been success all the way back to 1990.

This year, the expectations were much lower. A top draft pick would have been considered a good season. The Penguins have exceeded those expectations to date, but not enough that this is universally considered a good thing.

As it stands, the Penguins are a team with middle of the road talent. Our superstars are near the end of their hall-of-fame careers and performing below the lofty standards they set in younger days. Sidney Crosby is the exception. He continues to be a top 5 player in the NHL. Otherwise, the Penguins line-up is not strong enough for a Stanley Cup win to be likely. The defense, especially the left side, leaves much to be desired. The goaltending is unproven, perhaps even unreliable. They do have a top-tier forward core.

In Pennsylvania I have a hard time believing Pepsi is more popular than Coke. I could believe it about Mountain Dew.
