  1. Anyone here really good with computers? I have a question about CPUs (speeds and how it affects my desktop)

      Which is also another reason why I wanted to get a better cooler because it's been at 100 for who knows how long (literally probably a year or two) running at 100c (i never dusted it out right so idk how long it was at that temp for lol). I figured if I got a legit ass cooler then it might help it a little bit after being so hot for so long.

       

      This is the cooler i'm buying as well: https://www.amazon.ca/Noctua-NH-U12-Sockets-Heatpipe-Cooling/dp/B00C9EYVGY

      yeah thanks for all the help, imma test it in a few hours and hopefully it's good!!

      Ah yes, Noctua. Ugly but super effective. Luckily you can replace the brown fans with aftermarket fans if color is important to you (it is to me). 

       

      Quite frankly your chip has probably already experienced some degradation if it was at 100 degrees for any length of time - particularly if it had been like that for a few months. With that said, your performance graph still isn't that bad so I don't see why you couldn't get another year or two out of it so long as you baby it a bit more.

  2. Benn and Seguin implying the Sedins are "gay" (go to about 25 mins): http://www.bobanddan.com/latest-audio/

      They were laughing at how the Sedins looked and that they are so close they shave each other and just a bunch of unwarranted dumping that was real borderline.

      They can laugh some more when the Sedins are Hall-of-Famers...and they're NOT.

  3. When do Demko and Stecher become available in NHL 17? After their first pro game right? (im assuming pre-season doesn't count because they aren't there yet :()

      Yeah, they actually have to play a real (not preseason) game before they get added. Eichel didn't get added to NHL 16 until the Sabres first game last year.

  4. Would you guys package Tanev and like McCann for Edmonton's 4th pick? If they want to trade it for Hamonic, him and Tanev are very similar (Hamonic provides more offense though). I'd probably do it.

      87Crosby

      Good thing you're not an English prof. But Hamonic is a legitimate top pairing D-man. Edler is a Number 3 on a good team, and McCann is an unproven 19 year old who could be an Elite 2nd liner like Kesler. Also, the Islanders are a desirable team. On the East Coast, less travel, close to Manhattan, a team with a lot of potential. However, I am not Edler and I don't know what teams he will be willing to move too. 

    3. Senpai

      Senpai

      There was a report by Botch a few months ago (might have been in the Provies after a game) but he said the chances of Edler ever waiving his no-trade clause is practically 0. 

       

      If they asked him for a list, chances are he'd give a list of teams that literally can't acquire him, for example. He doesn't want to leave.

      edler has said in past he wont waive ntc  its not happening  vancouver is his home now  it doesnt matter if your proposing a trade with him because its not on radar for benning to do.  as soon as edler was injured  our season was over  we lost almost 10 games in a row without him    tryamkin and edler would be a fun pairing to watch

      If you have ever actually played 3 on 3, it is a completely different game from 4 on 4 my friend. TONS more ice, 3 on 3 is literally all speed.

    3. DollarAndADream

      I think 3on3 is best suited for speed and skill, not brain and skill which the Sedins are more akin to.

  13. Do people really trust the Sedins to play against the top lines of other teams? I personally don't feel comfortable seeing the Sedins play against Getz/Perry or Kopitar in the playoffs, they'd get crushed. We need a RH faceoff/shutdown guy.. Hey i heard that Kesler guy is pretty good? : )

      Winning the cup isn't on our radar in the near future. Kesler spent half his career here and decided it was time to leave because he wants to win. I dunno why people are hostile at that. I love this team but if I'd probably pull the same move and get out of here

  16. Brisbois is 6'2 175 while Juolevi is 6'3 179... Is it just me or do these two seem very light for their height? Hopefully they both gain some weight over the year, I wouldn't even want Juolevi playing in the NHL with that frame lol

      if juolevi can put on 10-15 pounds of muscle  by next  training camp he be nhl ready  195 pounds is decent size  seeing nhl is wussy these days less harsh hits and smurfs like gaudreau  playing in league  its def nhl lite these days compared to scott steven yrs he would kill johnny canuck with a hit 

    3. Bruce Boudreau

      Bruce Boudreau

      Juikevi could get by in the East if he was on a good team. He is just as good as Maata if not better. Only concern is the west because there are some heavy forwards and teams but with his elite hockey iq and excellent skating ability he could avoid hits like smaller d men do.

      I graduated high school at 6'3 205 and thought I wouldn't grow anymore, but 7 years later I'm 6'5 240ish and in better shape now. Muscles will fill out the frame eventually. I wouldn't be worried about it yet.

  17. I think it's safe to assume if Stamkos makes it to UFA, he'll get a max contract somehwere. A team will be paying Stamkos 15% of their entire cap lol (12 mil). There will be a bidding war, and I assure you a team will eventually offer him the max.

      @Wilbur

       

      From Babcock's latest comments that someone pointed to on HF, it might be possible that the Leafs don't plan on pros pursuing Stamkos at all. It could just be him trying to tone down the speculation but I think Toronto maybe in a similar position as Tampa soon when they will have their young stars to give out big contracts to and the Stamkos contract could end up being a burden.

    3. Nuxfanabroad

      Nuxfanabroad

      Certainly don't see him getting the 'Cody Franson treatment', but I'd set a limit at 8.5 mill, if I were a GM.

       

      Team-harmony/cohesiveness is more important than splashing out on hired guns.

    4. Pears

      Pears

      I'd say just make him the highest paid player in the league and I'm sure he'd at least consider it. Even if it's only 100K-500K more then Kane and Toews. 

  18. Is Stamkos the same player pre-broken leg? Been talking to Bolts fans and they say he's not the same 50-goal scorer since he broke his leg in 2014, he hasn't even been a PPG. Makes me weary about going into a bidding war for this dude. Idk if I wanna pay 11 mill + for someone who can't break 80 points.

    3. Senpai

      Senpai

      Yeah, lots of red flags. Ideally, I would offer him 1 year at max $$, tell him to prove himself next year, then re-sign him to whatever he shows. Obviously that wouldn't be 100% safest considering he could just leave, but that wouldnt really matter anyways because we got him for free in the first place.

       

      He would never be ok with that obviously (someone will give him a max contract right away July 1st probably), but that would be ideal. 

    4. Nuxfanabroad

      Nuxfanabroad

      We always assume SOME GM will come along, & ante up.

       

      Wondering if this might be the case where that doesn't occur?

       

      Likely SS is kicking himself now, for not taking Yzer's offer(or negotiating with greater commitment)?

      If you want something accurate give Stetcher High top 6 potential and make him 79 overall. Demko a high starter or Med elite. Around 73-76 overall.

      lol, "lose with respect", there is no such thing in the NHL, if you aren't goin' out swinging, you're viewed as a team that can be taken advantage of physically. Besides, FLA had no Ekblad, could have been a different game with that kid in the line-up - Yes, he is that good.
