Seems to be a pretty big topic of discussion, so have at it

This has been in numerous threads and deserves its own. Are you keeping or trading ROR this summer? I keep him unless the trade offer blows me away. He takes the hardest defensive minutes and he keeps Mittelstadt in a sheltered role which is needed this season. 

Washington v Tampa tonight at 8pm I think

Complain about anything you want. 1 complaint, 20 complaints, who cares? No one is really listening anyways.

My complaint for this week...

Fast food workers who are miserable beyond belief while on the job. If you hate your job that much, do something about it to better yourself in life. Go back to school or do whatever is needed to find a better job. In the meantime, if you continue to stay in your current position, suck it up and put on a happy face. M

I mentioned I was in the Queen City yesterday. Did I see a picture of Cellino of Cellino and Barnes on a Cellino Plumbing truck? Twin? Side gig?

I'll start it off with baseball playoffs beginning tomorrow! I hate the idea of one-game series as too chancy, but I love the idea for the tension and excitement.

No matter what happens and how upset it makes you, there are no possible outcomes that are legitimate evidence that the Draft Lottery is rigged. 

The only thing that can happen to constitute proof would be an impossibility - Toronto winning, as an example. Or the Denver Broncos.

Welcome, @lpilut!

This forum is always good for advice on topics outside of hockey and I bet this will be no different. I know Bio has regaled us with stories of her house nightmares, so maybe others have things to contribute?

Although home-ownership not in our immediate plans, Josie and I talk frequently about our desire to stop throwing money into the apartment rental void. Our lives are still a little too unpredictable at the moment, but I think within the next two years I want to take a stab at it.

Maybe this will get more traction as its own thread.

Assuming the majority of RFAs sign for about their qualifying offers, and that we buy nobody out, we will have about $19 million to spend this summer, including on Sam Reinhart and Robin Lehner/his replacement.

That’s enough to acquire at least two significant pieces, especially since Bogo, Scandella, Pominville Beaulieu and Moulson’s more than $20 million are off the books before we need to buck up for Casey and Rasmus Junior.

What should we do with the cash? Читать дальше...

It's me again.  The guy with questions from "left field".  All the responses in my "Center vs Winger" topic were much appreciated.  I think my Dahlin questions are somewhat related.
