  1. We’re doing really well in the draft. This time last week we were still in the second round. Nearly done. Well done everyone!
  2. Also bought a sweeeeet Kirby Puckett mesh jersey.
  3. I just bought a Wild jersey, actually. Got this one, marked down half price.
  4. Have been listening to Right Place Wrong Time throughout the last week while BBQing. Didn’t know the guy.
  5. Thanks to MM for processing, and to @inane for the quick negotiations. Korenar is a solid, young goalie prospect at 21 years old. Goalies have proven time and again that you don’t need to be drafted in order to have an NHL career, and the Sharks IRL really like his skill set and composure. But, as stated numerous times, my future in net seems to be as close to set as possible with Carter Hart and Ukko-Pekka. Depending on how my team looks halfway through the season or at the draft next year, Ukko-Pekka could be made available again. As it is, current outlook in net is: Carter Hart Casey DeSmith Ivan Nalimov Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen Karel Vejmelka At this point, not looking to move anymore of my goalies. Nalimov looks to be crossing the pond and could get an injury callup for the Hawks. But with Korenar gone, I’ll now need a replacement backup. Vejmelka remains a question mark. Followed him as close as I could, and have been high on him. Appears as though the Preds aren’t going to be tendering him an ELC and he’ll become a free agent. Disappointed that I may have whiffed on that one.
  6. @Nail, not sure if you have a list for @JE14
  7. As per @Blue Jay 22 on discord (screen shot below), he’ll make up pick when he’s back. @Dion Phaneuf is up
  8. Carolina has made a trade for one last pick in the draft, even though I have no clue who to select. That was smart.
  9. If they can’t extend Hayes, they could do a lot worse than Perry at 50% retained. Considering they really need to get back into the playoffs, and Hart needs to get playoff experience.
  10. Two years left on his contract. I can see a playoff team taking him on for 50% retained. Give him reduced minutes on the 2nd or 3rd line on a deep playoff team, and he could be a good pickup. Not sure what team fits him in, but someone will.
  11. This thread is a bad idea. Not because of “caving” into anything or being “offended”. If I’m anything politically, it’s on the right. But this thread is going nowhere, and fast.
  12. My wife is a teacher, and this was her first thing she talked about. Said, “It’s better that a kid gets his angst out with dodgeball, which is harmless, than going on the playground and targeting a kid with his fists.”
  13. Guessing the “experts” were not good at dodgeball.
  14. Was discussing this in the food thread. Until this week, I’ve always left the husks on, but for this recipe, I took them off. Made Mexican Street Corn (pic below). Calls to wrap in seran wrap and put in microwave for 5 minutes, then char on grill afterwards. The recipe itself once on the grill, brush on garlic butter mixture. Then afterwards, brush on Mexican Crema, sprinkle on Cojito Cheese, smoked paprika, and cilantro. If I’m having regular corn, then yeah, I keep the husks on when I cook them on the BBQ.
  15. 34 degree weather and I was wearing jeans. And barefoot
  16. Good for them. They are building something exciting, there.
  17. In Steinbach (40 minutes East of Winnipeg), there’s zero flooding. Our city is about 6-7 stories higher than Winnipeg. So we’re good here
  18. Our basement went unfinished for 13 years. When we finished it over the winter, I splurged and created a media room. Spoiled? Yes. Regret it? Not a bit
  19. Via discord, @gmen81 of the Anaheim Ducks selects... Drew Helleson @Nail
  20. Chances are slim, I know. But for any fellow Manitobans (think there’s two others in here) that want to come over for the actual NHL draft for beers and BBQ and watch on 110 inch screen, open invite.
  21. 21 year old goalie prospect Josef Korenar, who was San Jose’s AHL starter last year in his rookie season, and posted: GAA: 2.54 SV%: .911 Wins: 23 Losses: 10 Available for a 5th.
