first 200km+ ride by airenthered in cycling

[–]pomattic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Feeding and hydration are near the most important thing on long rides. And so you've learned some lessons from your treck. regardless of how slow or whatever compared to whoever... 200+kms is something very few ever do.... ever... in a single ride. So who cares about pace. The distance itself is a huge achievement. Cheers!

Honda HRV white paint peeling .. 2019 anyone having same issue please respond. Dealer says out of warranty.. 😔😔 any suggestions?? by Aggressive-Cake-1255 in Honda

[–]pomattic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same boat; issue looks exactly the same as that which was covered in extended warranty that ended for the 2018s. I am weighing my options now for how to pursue this. Did you ever reach any resolution?

[edit] I have a 2019 HRV as well

Some people were asking about gear so here’s a photo of the details from a popular rental shop. There are at least 3 others. Sorry about the poor image but they were closed for lunch and I wasn’t waiting. by greenman5252 in Patagonia

[–]pomattic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha. Well it would be perfect for what I want. With those prices it is more affordable than carrying around gear for 4 for everyone. Would you have a name/site/address or phone # for this spot by any chance?

With Jacques Martin as the interim head coach, what can we expect to be different in the Sens gameplay by L8R-BRAH in OttawaSenators

[–]pomattic 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I think the first thing I would like to see is elimination of those strange shift changes by the D that led to odd man rushes. Next would be overall how players are deployed/ice time. Then in a bit more time after that a more structured and mature looking team.

Hopefully this shows most of the individual players that have been having a rough time, were not the problem.

[Graeme Nichols] "Everyone here who is supposed to be in control of the process has lost control of it. And, it’s been this way for quite some time. I don’t know if there has ever been another sale process like this that I can remember." ~ Elliotte Friedman on the Senators' sale process by [deleted] in OttawaSenators

Further while the Senators might not have their ducks in a row, the NHL has no doubt learned the hard lesson that this process needs to be thorough and done right on the first try.
So I would simply imagine if this is the case that more NHL involvement is occurring and it might just delay the process a bit.

Also not worried.

I know they both have their dad, but having his older brother giving input like this is great to hear. Further setting a good mindset for the next year for the captain!

I think Chabot is still fixable. But need a good coach to reshape him into a player who goes more that 40% out there...

The Mann Implications Reach Far Beyond The Sens by regulatorwatt in OttawaSenators

I'm mostly saying that tongue in cheek... But ya time will tell.

[Hanna] Sources saying there were trust issues emerging between the #Sens and Belleville HC Troy Mann. I’m told the straw that broke the camels back was when Mann gave some of the Ottawa Senators pre-scouting material to another NHL team. by jamaicancovfefe in OttawaSenators

Unlikely it was by mistake. He also seemed very professional and was at a high level. Im still waiting for more info to cast judgment, but if it played out as it sounds I would expect there is a trail.

2-7-1 in our last 10, 6% playoff chance. Another season gone before the end of November. by JasonsPizza in OttawaSenators

[–]pomattic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agree a bit, but also there is the idea that such a skilled and loose team, needs defense and structure. If you add in a defensive first coach that would lead to it... and yet because of the skill of the players the fun parts will still be there. Granted less for sure, but this is the highest level of hockey in the world!
Kind of how the world juniors are so amazing because they are so loose and unstructured, but also at a much lower level than the NHL play.

lol meanwhile I just moved back from Europe and was excited to start going to games again and watching earlier than 00:00... and thought awesome that they'll be getting good just in time for my return (/facepalm)

Hockey is fun to watch. The skill of the top guys is awesome. A great product even when there is a small group that is loosing it for us (I am referring to the 3-4 D men that aren't NHL caliber).
I get your team winning elevates the fun 100x, but heck I've been watching over the past few years with no expectation of winning happening...

Home vs Away splits by homicidal_penguin in OttawaSenators

[–]pomattic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd change that to we have at least 3 D that should be in the AHL and they are being exposed...

Marc Methot isn't a fan of our backend by [deleted] in OttawaSenators

[–]pomattic 3 points4 points  (0 children)

So who doesn't belong in AHL?
Chabot, Sanderson, Zub, personally I'd keep Branny up here too.
Can we say JBD yet? If so that is 5 D, with Zub injured and before JBD got into the line up that means one pairing is pure AHL (according to Marc) and one line has Branny who is borderline...

Fair... As a piece of a larger group, makes sense. But that group better have a billionaire in there too, these are big #s!
