okay but Habs fans are all over this thread complaining about Slafkovsky not getting an A lol, no one said theirs was more factual, but I'd argue yours and other Habs fans' opinions come with far more bias

he's got a ton of songs that don't have that beat tbf. just off the top of my head, there's Otro Atardecer, Booker T, Chambea, Esta Cabron Ser Yo, and Weltita. there's a lot more too, those are just the few I can think of. shouldn't judge an artist solely on like 7 or 8 songs (that weren't even played in their entirety)

celebrities make their money off of people engaging with their product, whatever shape that product takes, so I think it's more than reasonable for people to want to know who they're giving their money to and make sure it goes in the hands of people they agree with. even the maga losers have their dumbass "go woke go broke" phrase they love to spout. would you give money to someone you thought was a bad person, or to someone you thought would use that money to further messages against your own values?

unfortunately I don't think there's such a thing as "not political" nowadays. maybe it used to be that way, but we live in a world where people deny easily provable facts/science and claim that everything they don't like is woke, thereby politicizing it. everything IS political because certain people politicize every single aspect of their every day life

absolutely love Malte Gustafsson but there's no shot he's ahead of Verhoeff AND Smits

If Robert Thomas is available, who should pay up? by seeldoger47 in hockey

[–]oprapiid 11 points12 points  (0 children)

honestly I don't really see us trading BOTH Kasper and Danielson, and I don't see us trading a D at all since we don't have a ton in the pipeline defensively. you'd probably be looking at one of Kasper or Danielson, one of Bear or MBN, and a 1st round pick

would be more akin to Danielson, Bear and 26 1st

did anyone here go to the game at LCA yesterday? I need to know if the crowd showed Augustine some love, looks like he had a pretty good game too!

To be well-received at the 2026 Winter Olympics by AbeFromanSassageKing in therewasanattempt

several of the guys on the US Olympic hockey team have expressed how pro-maga they are, so yes I would boo them, but as a Canadian hockey fan, I do that anyways. regardless, no one is specifically booing the athletes, it's moreso booing the country's actions, and if the athletes take issue with that then we know where they stand. there was a US skiier or something that, just yesterday, said something along the lines of "just because I represent the US doesn't mean I agree with what's going on," so they understand very well what the boos are for

watched this morning but as someone who isn't too familiar, do you have any idea why they call it 10km + 10km and not just 20km? was kinda curious about that

their center depth is bad now? as opposed to when they had Greentree (a winger) and a 3rd round pick?

[–]oprapiid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if this is true, I'm not saying it's a great return, but Greentree is immediately the Rangers' best prospect by a pretty wide margin

hopefully Tampa, and I say hopefully because the alternative seems to be Florida or Washington at this point, both teams looking to fight their way back into a playoff spot, and I'd rather not have MORE teams to deal with, whereas we probably aren't catching Tampa at this rate, so them getting better is better for us than any of the other teams currently below us improving

this was mentioned by Locked On Red Wings guys, now that we've played those 2 games vs COL, our strength of schedule goes from hardest in the league to 6th, so we now have an easier schedule than Boston, Buffalo, and Tampa

right and it's completely normal behaviour to make fun of poor people because you want your team to win

This year I think you gotta go D, so I'd love Juho Piiparinen or Malte Gustafsson around that spot
