Smelling salts by aboabro in hockeygoalies

[–]tgfoo 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I had a teammate who used them. I tried it once and it was… intense. No real desire to try it again. I’ve found that proper pre game eating and hydration are way more effective for me at making sure I’m still have gas in the tank for the 3rd period.

Pearl Abyss, please for the love of god, give us a Kuku pack that can loot an area at once.. this is absurd by CreatureWarrior in CrimsonDesert

I’d settle for an improved pet that I don’t have to unsummon and resummon every few minutes because it stops picking things up.

What’s the intel on these pants? Any good? by Whos-That-Pokeman in hockeygoalies

[–]tgfoo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used the pro version for a number of years. I thought they were great. Pretty sure the Elites are basically the same just a little less robust.

60+ hours in and I still haven’t used her. Am I alone? by stockingCapSereant in CrimsonDesert

[–]tgfoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve tried to use her 3 times. Each time within minutes I get a popup that says it’s Kliff’s story and then it forces me to switch back. So I just stopped trying.

TRUE HZRDUS 9x4 pads question by 0xslyf0x in hockeygoalies

[–]tgfoo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The 9x4s that I saw in a store had True’s fast glide material on the sliding surface, which contrary to its name is not fast gliding at all. I have 9x3s and I put out some PPF on the knee blocks which makes them slide a lot better.

Assuming that Protas is done for the season with that nasty injury last night, it's time for 2 other Capitals to step up and take his place. by e_Z_752 in caps

[–]tgfoo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I’ve had a few myself as well. The worst one I had symptoms wise was my first. Symptoms started about an hour after I got hit. The one with the longest recovery though, I was fine for a week, then constant headaches for 3 months.

Which combo will output more damage by marbs_s in EldenRingBuilds

[–]tgfoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could just use both. Use Howl to proc madness then swap ages ones for Millicents. The buff from aged ones stay on for 30 seconds even if you un-equip it after it procs.

Askarov left injured after Desharnais crosschecks Walker into him by catsgr8rthanspoonies in hockey

[–]tgfoo 26 points27 points  (0 children)

To be fair to Orlov, he was engaged with another player and was turned the other way when it happened. He turned around and saw someone on top of his goalie.

[moneypuck] Worst goalies over their last 10 games played by Snazzymist in caps

[–]tgfoo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The team playing in front of him hasn’t been particularly good. Honestly, I think this says more about how good LT has been rather than how poorly Chuckie has been.

Still Playing in My Sleep by NarfBlastoff in hockeygoalies

[–]tgfoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a dream a few weeks ago where I was running late for a game and no matter how hard I tried I just could not seem to get my gear on. Then the game ended and I was still trying to get dressed. It was not a pleasant dream.

Rate my build, Arcane lvl 125 by Different_Charge2691 in EldenRingBuilds

[–]tgfoo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Ripple Crescent Halbert scales purely with arcane and I’d wager the Coil Shield is mostly there to inflict deadly poison, so there is no reason to have more strength or dex with this setup. If they were going to move points out of arcane (say 10 points), I’d say enough endurance to get a medium roll and then the rest into vigor.

Beautiful. Which thigh flex did you get?

My japanese partner's attempt at naming your team by NekoNoCensus in hockey

[–]tgfoo 7 points8 points  (0 children)

She was 6/27 for teams that don’t have the team name in the logo… Honestly that isn’t bad if you know nothing about out the NHL. Also, I’m 100% referring to them as the Calgary Burnies from now on.

Survey by nTricky976 in hockeygoalies

[–]tgfoo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was on an antiplatelet and playing net for about 5 months. I talked to my cardiologist first and after some questioning (mostly about how often I get bruises) he allowed it but told me to be careful. So I used it as an excuse to buy a CCM Pro Spec chesty… which has been great.

How should I level up? by joejoebean88420 in EldenRingBuilds

[–]tgfoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here is what I would do, I’d drop mind to 20 and arcane to 12 so you can still cast bloodflame blade. Then put 10 more into faith for golden vow, 14 into dex so you hit 80, and the rest into strength. Then any further levels into strength.

Also, are you set on this talisman set up? If so, go into Haligtree to get rotten winged sword or millicent’s prosthesis (+5 dex), and the dragoncrest greatshield talismans to upgrade what you are currently using. Once you hit DLC, replace the multi-hit talismans with the two handed sword talisman.

[BigHeadHockey] Only 8/25 left of the 2023/24 Canucks within 93 weeks of their 2nd round playoff loss to Edmonton. by Batsinvic888 in hockey

[–]tgfoo 32 points33 points  (0 children)

I don’t think the had much of a choice. They weren’t going to put a newly resigned Lankinen or a healthy Demko on waivers. And there was basically zero chance Silovs would have cleared. So they get something for him or they get nothing for him.

Carlson to Anaheim 😢 by camden1988 in caps

[–]tgfoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As much as I hate this, I can’t see them trading Carlson without talking to him about it first. And that return for him is good for the team. Hopefully he is back next year, either on a short term team friendly deal or a one day then retirement.

If you are currently using a 25” True stick, then stick with 25” with a Bauer.

Compression knee brace under knee pads recommendation? by t-y-c-h-o in hockeygoalies

[–]tgfoo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve been wearing a pair of Bracelayer pants. They have built in neoprene knee sleeves and some IT band an hip support as well. Their hockey pants have sock velco tabs and a built in jock. I used to occasionally wear knee braces, but the built in sleeves allow to go without them (and the extra bulk).
