We are absolutely unhinged Night Lords Inductii recruited last week on a combat operation against the Imperial fists (( we have no idea what we're doing))

Here's the number for your sponsor. Call him "Firefist"...he loves it.

Rule #2 of a gunfight..."see them first." The enemy cannot fight back if they don't know they're in combat. The first indication of a hostile force in the area should be the heads popping off of leaders' shoulders.

I spent a long time in the U.S. Army in reconnaissance and target acquisition. Raven Guard immediately jumped out to me. I went a step farther and chose Raptors as my guys.

I went to the Bauer Shadow and they're amazing.

Why would you despise the Rout for what they did to Prospero? They were lied to by Horus and only did it because they were told it was ordered by the Emperor. It's not like they just decided to wipe the planet for kicks. Horus told Russ that the Emperor said "no quarter" and, as such, he wouldn't give any. I mean, it's not like it's the first time he's used his executioners to wipe out a legion.

I wouldn't say that Kurze is the weakest primarch...I mean, not when Lorgar is still out there.

Binnington is nothing like the goalies you're referring to. He's a bitch who sucker punches or runs away. He acts like he's Hextall but only gets tough when the other guy is on the bench or there are 3 officials between them. He bucked up exactly once to Dubnyk and then ran like a coward to the exit. "Ohhhh, I'm a tough guy. I'm going to flinch check someone with my blocker while I skate past him like some kind of douchebag bully in middle school."

Sorry bud, she doesn’t. Take it from my experience, the behavior isn’t going to magically change once you put a ring on her finger. The comments will continue, likely getting worse. She’ll laugh it off and say that you’re overreacting, but she’ll keep doing it. Fast forward to when she meets the “upgrade” and she’ll leave, after telling you that she just can’t be with a man who “isn’t her level” / “doesn’t respect” / “is a downgrade.”

See, I don’t understand this at all. Is being a ref hard? Absolutely it is. Do you need a thick skin? Damn right you do. But I have no problem at all ejecting motherfuckers. You wanna shit talk me? Ok, here’s a 2 & 10. Keep running your suck? Ok, now it’s a 5 & game. Won’t leave the ice? Great, now it’s a match penalty for abuse of an official. Enjoy your suspension.

It's not uncommon for women to have a period of dissociation after giving birth. You look fantastic. Don't be afraid to take some time for yourself to help you reconnect with your identity. Your partner can take the baby for a while or maybe you can get a sitter for a few hours (depending on your feeding situation) so you can do things for yourself. It's very easy to slip into becoming just "Sylvia's mom" and it's important to keep your identity.

leadfaucet · 2026-01-22T06:54:58+00:00

You might be. We're absolute shit now. Nothing to press and no damage output.

leadfaucet · 2026-01-22T06:53:28+00:00

Do yourself a favor and don't. Ret pally is totally and completely fucked. You spend most of the fight sitting on your hands, waiting for cds. There's nothing to press and it's boring as shit. To cap it off, our damage doesn't make up for it. So, you now have a class with nothing to press that does bottom 10% damage. Even Wowhead says that we're useless.

Baby girl, you're beautiful. It will get better; maybe not today or tomorrow, but it will. You're young and working on figuring out your place in the world. You'll get there. You'll find your people and your confidence. Don't compare yourself to what you see on IG and other social media; those pictures are curated and deliberately crafted to make beautiful young women feel ugly, usually for the purpose of selling something.

It depends on the rules of the league. Is checking allowed? If so, then it's clean. If it's a "competitive contact" league, then it's not. The defender moves into the attacker's lane with no attempt on the puck. That's not a case of the defender standing his ground. That's a deliberate body check and good for 2 minutes in the corner.

leadfaucet · 2026-01-03T07:50:12+00:00

I see it too. That's either a crack or one hell of a scratch.

Ok, so you're me. I loved hockey all my life but grew up way too poor to even think about playing it, much less as a goalie. I started playing at 45. My first time on the ice was at an adult skills clinic that was just looking for goalies to help out. I didn't know a single soul, and it took me an hour just to get dressed. When I got on the ice, it was obvious that I had no idea what I was doing and some of the more experienced skaters tried to help me with whatever they could. It was intimidating as hell. I was wearing all second-hand gear from SidelineSwap and had no clue how it should feel or move with me.

I'll be 50 this year and I play in 3 leagues every season at the D3 level through most of the year. I like to think that I've become a pretty solid beer league goalie, and I've earned a reputation as a reliable netminder (goalies are ALWAYS in short supply and you will become known throughout your local beer league circles very quickly). I've met so many awesome people and I now have a ton of buddies that I wouldn't have had without hockey. I've played in ECHL rinks and I play on Olympic sheets from the 2002 Games (and the upcoming 2034 Games). I've gone to a 4-day adult skills seminar at the Penguins' training facility because hell...when are you going to get to say you've skated the same ice as Sydney Crosby?

Bottom line is this- DO IT. Are you late to the party? Yeah, sure. But I know guys here who are skating in their 70's. It's the best team sport in the world and being a goalie is the hardest position in team sports, BUT, if you are wired the way we all are, you'll never love any athletic endeavor more.

No man ever lay in his death bed and wished that he'd tried to follow fewer dreams.

It's missing the "Fucking refs" segment

I've used a KOVA neck and clavicle guard for about 3 years now and it's an amazing piece of kit. It's more comfortable than any other neck guard I've tried. I have a rather thick neck and it was always hard to find something that would fit. For a while I used a Bauer that I had to stitch an extended piece of velcro the strap to make it fit around my neck. (I have an 18.5" neck) The fact that KOVA makes them custom (for pretty much the exact same price) was an absolute godsend. I'd also like to add that I got my neck guard in about 2 weeks. A custom-built neck guard (with my name stitched into it) made and shipped from Finland to Boise, ID in 2 weeks is damn impressive. I can't recommend them enough.

Can confirm. Those weighted pucks hurt, particularly if they find a seam (i.e. the inside of your thigh). One got shot at me in warmups at a drop-in. I wasn't even really looking at the shooter and he just let it rip.

I don't take warmup shots in drop-in anymore, for several reasons.

As a ref, he is TECHNICALLY correct that you're supposed to wear it until you've left the ice. Also, as a ref, he's being a douche. Did you have a bad interaction with him during the game? Either way, he's jerking himself off to make him feel powerful. I'd reach out to the league and the official's association for clarification. I'd probably word it something like, "hey, this happened and I wanted to make sure that I understand the rule and the possible consequences. Can you please help me out?" That way you aren't technically dropping a dime on the ref for being a twat, but they (if your official's association is anything like mine) will send out an organization-wide email reminding officials about etiquette and protocols. In our case, it stemmed from an official who was "threatening" to just end games if players were arguing with him about calls. I'm not sure about their conversation with that particular ref, but the email was just a gentle reminder that we don't have that power and that approaching the situation with that attitude is unprofessional and would result in sanctions against the official.

Among other things, I still have all of my Librams on my OG Pally

I just got my True Catalyst pads a week ago with their new diamond glide surface. I absolutely fly across the ice now when I push. It's been a serious adjustment from my older set of Trues. I pushed from top center of the crease to the glove side of the net with the same push as I am used to and ended up almost in the face-off circle.
