I use it in my garden which is only about 11x7 so it goes quick. My dad had a huge garden that would take days with a mattock, so we tilled.

I’d say 2.5ish. He’s a must keep imo

Had to be 30x30. No way I'm using a hand tool on that, especially since he sold the donkey and plow.

I do volunteer for food on my friend's organic farm so I don't need much garden space.

Way too much money for Stinky's defensive responsibility. Strome is much cheaper with more of an offensive upside.
- Fenrir


Sorry I have to be that guy, but I have to say source? If you want to tell me they have been about equal in career, sure. However, Vlad is the only one of the two to reach 20 goals, and Strome only got to 18 this year because a ridiculously high shooting percentage. He's also one year younger so you really can't hang the much higher upside argument either. If you want to say you'd rather have him because he's simply cheaper I can live with that argument. I just don't think that Strome is a 2C in this league. I'm not sure Names is either, but I think he can be like Fillpula was for the Isles when he was healthy. If we have the cap room, it's probably worth it to us just to hang on to him for one more season.

Showed a lot of promise when he came here, just like a certain defenseman. I'd like to go $2 for 3 years.

I don't know how people on farms can do it. You basically have car payments on the tractors that are required to maintain them with any kind of efficiency. Your crops better be really good to justify that life.

Not only that, he’s an agitator. I was hearing that Winnipeg really missed him in the playoffs. You gotta have that on your team

Ever see the videos of that vs weed whacker? Scythe destroys it.

Not literally.

- Fenrir

Really? I have a steep slope in front that I can't use my ride on or regular mower. Usually use the weedwacker. Scythe is better??

If you want to go down the rabbit hole today, look up the scythe speed mowing competitions. If only we could be that good with it, our lawns would be done in like 30 seconds.

You're right that numbers are pretty even and Strome's % is likely unsustainable. Stinky's 20 goal season came playing with better players.
Tossing this season aside as a rebuild, I too would like to keep both players. Strome just seems to have more oompf to his game than Vlad does. More noticeable even when he's not scoring. Vlad seems to disappear for long stretches. I would shop him with no salary retained.

Haha, I think I will!

I have 2 acres and there are tons of slopes, rock, trees, you name it. It takes me almost 4 hours on my 48" ride around.

No doubt.
His tractor is probably from the 60's and running strong. It's a hard life, but he really enjoys it. Variables like too much rain splitting the tomatoes, or drought (easier to control with watering) can break you. Fortunately his wife has a job to keep them afloat.

Ok, I only use mine on the flat sections of the trails, would be tough on the slope. I got tired of mowing a drop-off by one section of the stream, so I planted hostas that the deer left alone until last year. Consider plantings for that area?
