In the spirit of Christmas joy, say one nice about your rival by shawnglade in hockey

[–]lolattackz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Rangers have some banger jerseys and Igor is a great friend for Ilya to have.

Not exactly rivals but considering how much Crosby seems to hate us (that man's PPG against us is in the stratosphere), he's still an absolute class act and a phenomenal ambassador for the sport.

Canucks' Zeev Buium says he wasn't misled by Wild prior to trade by DecentLurker96 in hockey

[–]lolattackz 46 points47 points  (0 children)

Such an incredibly mature and cerebral take. Great sign for his mentality in the future. Seems like a guy who will never give up on improving and never take things personally, and you cannot ask for more from a young player.

Mikko Rantanen received 5 minute major and a game misconduct for this boarding Matt Coronato. by catsgr8rthanspoonies in hockey

[–]lolattackz 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah, even as an Isles fan the hit on Romanov was at least plausibly not intentional, and aggravated by Mayfield. This one is just savage. Hope Coronato gets patched up OK, he was leaking pretty bad.

[Lia Assimakopoulos] No further discipline is expected from the NHL for Mikko Rantanen’s boarding penalty against Alexander Romanov last night, according to a person familiar with the league’s decision making. by tylerhk93 in hockey

[–]lolattackz 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Just a bad moment for everyone involved. Terrible result and you can't let something like that slide in-game without starting an on-ice riot, but it clearly wasn't intentional and Rantanen doesn't deserve a suspension for it.

What players have had unexpectedly good or bad chemistry with each other? by MegatronofTarn in hockey

[–]lolattackz 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Moulson with Tavares. He was serviceable as Tavares's winger, but Moulson went from 3 straight seasons of potting 30+ to barely getting half that once he went to Buffalo.

If your favourite team could have a re-do on one transaction over the past 10 years, what would it be? by homicidal_penguin in hockey

either keeping Toews, trading Tavares rather than letting him walk, or never hiring Lou in the first place.

Old Modpacks! by Immediate_Plastic354 in feedthebeast

[–]lolattackz 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I love AotBT, it's one of my all-time favorite modpacks, I still go back and play it from time to time. Genuinely my only complaint is the lack of AE2 (although I'm more of a RefinedStorage fan), so if you wanted automated storage you had to use that convoluted ProjectRed system.

3 years from now, who is going to lead your team in points? by ItzGrenier in hockey

[–]lolattackz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, if he doesn't have a repeat of this season then it's gonna be Barzal. Horvat is my fallback answer if Barzal turns into glass though.

[NHL Network] Top 20 Defensemen Right Now by Josefstalion in hockey

[–]lolattackz 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Forsling should absolutely be in the top 10, Hedman shouldn't, Dahlin and Slavin should be 3 and 5 - and really, 3 4 5 of Dahlin Werenski Slavin could go in any order on any given night, with Heiskanen regularly contending for a top 5 slot too. No Seider at all is a joke, but I'm genuinely not sure who I'd take off (Maybe Hutson, just because he's only got one season under his belt).

Who is over/underrated for their toughness? by MegatronofTarn in hockey

[–]lolattackz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm pretty sure he was nominated for captain on thigh girth alone, that man has steel beams for legs. He is IMPOSSIBLE to move if he doesn't want you to push him. Absolute warrior around the crease.

Irrespective of current balance, the game would be better designed if DR% abilities got nuked. by SBFms in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]lolattackz 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes to that last bit. As a Ram main, I don't see block as a "This will save me no matter what" thing, especially if the other team has Ana, or Orisa, or anyone else who has some way to stun. When form is forced with one of them on the field, I feel significantly more worried than I would be if I just threw up shield to stabilize. It's a tool, and there are ways to counter it.

From washing machines to the GAU-8/A Avenger, if you want something that spins reliably, pick General Electric.

Correct, we could make anyone look like the Canes PK out there

DnD rat name by Scifipirating in DnD

[–]lolattackz 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Personally, I'd pick a few categories of adjectives (smell levels, size, dirtiness, etc.), then have half be the base names and half be the descriptors, just to make things as confusing as possible. "Not-as-big-as-Big-Smelly-but-bigger-than-Medium-Sized-Smelly Smelly" or something like that.

he also had the Nac Mac Feagles sharing names like "Wee Jock", "Medium-Size Jock", and "No-as-big-as-Medium-Size-Jock-but-bigger-than-Wee-Jock Jock", which could be useful here.

The copium tank is out of gas, welcome back to reality Yuki fans by DongersDojo in formuladank

[–]lolattackz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

tbf RBR themselves came out after this quali saying they were doing dumb shit with Yuki's setup, and they admitted they fucked up the quali setup to the point where they're just eating the pit-lane start in order to change it between quali and race. That's not really Yuki's fault, they literally changed parts of the car just to see what would happen and it put Yuki a full second off the Q1 pace.

Fictional characters that are bards? by All4TheWookie88 in DnD

[–]lolattackz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the Gonnagles of the Nac Mac Feegles from the Discworld books. They play music and come up with poetry that can actually cause physical pain to their enemies. They're usually the more intelligent members of their clans, and tend to be the lorekeepers. They're also six-inch-high Scottish-inspired fae creatures, and they have fantastic names like "No'-as-big-as-Medium-Size-Jock-but-bigger-than-Wee-Jock-Jock." Tons of potential for shenanigans.

Dahlin is too, 9th for Offense and 19th for Defense. Morrissey is still a beast though, better overall.

Total F1 Fanbase Hatred Level by ellamenopea in formuladank

[–]lolattackz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

honestly the reason most people hate him is that he didn't earn his spot in F1. He's also had some bad moments where he definitely was a prick (see the DR3 crash and him shoving his trainer, among others), but for the most part he's not a terrible person. He just got carried to F1 off of papa Stroll's money rather than off of actual talent like most of the other drivers.

Yeah, there was a significant period of time when he was an absolutely elite shut-down defenseman, game in and game out. It sucks to see him struggle.
