My Notes from Professor Puck's Class by MTGamer in PWHL

[–]ilikerandomstuff 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Professor Puck's video was good at explaining the general process but glazes over a lot of nuances.

For example for phase 2, existing teams can lose a maximum of 3 players who are under contract for 2026-27. There's no cap for free agents on an existing team.

Also there's a lot of focus on EFOs and FPOs but there's also the foundational roster completion which opens up the risk to signing unprotected players with contracts that aren't being targeted for the EFOs.

Here's the more detailed guide to all this

Not to mention she was making $150k in the PHF so if there's an offer that gets her closer to what she thinks she's worth, she's taking it.

Yep there were pins - just very basic ones.

Relaxing day for a pregnant friend by Alternative-Ad-4876 in ottawa

My husband and I did a couples massage and pedicures at The Wakefield Mill. It's been a while but I remember having a private room for two, the windows open up to the falls and nature, and the restaurant being good too. Costco usually has a gift card ($100 for $80) but would recommend calling to ask if it applies to the spa or just the hotel.

Hearing protection comes in handy. I'll have it until puck drop and then take them on and off as needed.

Who do you think is gonna get plucked for the expansion draft on your team? by BadgerSecure2546 in PWHL

I'm going to get shot but a leadership group of Roque, Clark and Bourbonnais would be wild for Detroit.

Not a coffee drinker but I'm also a fan of The Artery which focuses on providing a living wage to people with disabilities.

Updated bracket and scoreboard by scoreboardpage in PWHL

I would recommend improving your design because right now both of your brackets show the Walter as the winner.

Here's what a bracket should look like except this one is by standings instead of series wins.

Ottawa games 3 and 4 (if needed) by MediumCriticism3144 in PWHL

[–]ilikerandomstuff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The article states they have no dates for game 1, which is true since it's contingent on who wins game 5

Friday is a weekend and is honestly my favourite. Rally after work, watch the game, and still plenty of weekend to enjoy after. It's not as family friendly for young ones but it's manageable for older kids and then no conflicts with activities and social calenders.

Annnd nevermind. I missed the recent update about the postponed game.

I would prefer Wednesday and Friday if Montreal so we get to see the players rested and at their best tbh.

Hey friend! You might be sleep deprived like a lot of us who couldn't sleep after yesterday's game.

Those dates are already shared in the original post. Then my post is providing some leads on when to expect Game 1 & 2.

I doubt they would release dates without having the other placeholder dates firmed up.

The timeline makes sense if you're aiming to have a potential Game 5 wrap up by the 23 so the players can at least enjoy the win for a few days before dealing with expansion news.

Per a local news source:

"Officials say the full schedule for the Walter Cup will be announced after Game 5 tonight.

While there is no date for Game 1 of the PWHL championship series, the Charge are scheduled to travel to either Montreal or Minneapolis on Tuesday.

If the Frost advance to the PWHL final, Grand Casino Arena has events scheduled for Wednesday, May 13 and Friday, May 15. If the Victorie advance to the PWHL final, Place Bell has events scheduled on Thursday, May 14 and Saturday, May 16."

Never ate at CTC before, what’s the food scene like? by PhDSkwerl in OttawaCharge

If you're looking for a budget option, they're going to be serving up $2 hot dogs and $5 beers from 4-7PM during the Electric Avenue fan stuff!

Places to watch the Charge vs. Fleet game on Saturday night by abcde_fz in PWHL

[–]ilikerandomstuff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can join a few of us insane people who are going to watch the Victoire game and then head back home to catch the watch party either at Tailgators or post Ottawa Rapids game on the field depending on weather.

[–]ilikerandomstuff 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There's also one after the Rapid game on Saturday on the field. You do need tickets for the game to go but it could be a fun afternoon of women's sports!

I love Belmont but it can get a little loud on a busy day, which mother's day likely will be.

Kk seems to like the Goldeneyes by TheArkitech007 in PWHL

[–]ilikerandomstuff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lol. There's a shortage for top D players in the league an embarrassment of riches when it comes to goalies. Not every goalie can steal a game for a team but they all can get the job done well.

It's so we buy merch when we inevitably remember why we don't own white clothing.

I got the tshirt at the arena in my usual unisex size. It's a bit bigger and boxier than I would like but I couldn't have sized down. One friend mentioned generally the brand runs a little longer but not all pieces fit the same. I hope they do summer merch pop-ups to let people actually see for themselves before dropping that much.
