10 .3 is a huge problem for me. I like the kid but I am not at that salary yet. - VANTEL
It would have to be the full 8 for me at that big a number. If I was a team that really wanted to get him, I’d make the number BIG, AND take him exactly to UFA status. That would be the biggest risk for which ever team ended up with him (the team that signed him or the Canucks). I’m not sure, would that be a 4 year deal? 4 years, $41,107,316 - the compensation would be 2 first, 1 second and 1 third and he would be a UFA at the end.
Have a decent amount of experience, mostly repair. - Load Management
Underground pvc. It’s from the main waterline so it’s under pressure. The T junction cracked (winter freeze maybe). One line goes down hill to a set of valves for the lower property, the other line goes uphill for the top portion. I’ve tried three times now, can’t get it to work. The problem is that because it’s a T, and it’s buried, I can’t get the last piece in. The line is too long to get into the connector.
I’d dig up more area around it to make it more bendy, but there are a ton of mature plants (and roots) making it tough.
Any tricks? Or a different kind of fitting that would be easier?

It is only fans speculating but it is Bergevin who is a wildman.

If I'm reading this right the main line is too long for the junction and it's PVC. Just grab a dremel with a cutting wheel and cut it to fit. Does it align with the T?

I know nothing about irrigation but will guess hacksaw PVC to size ?

The problem is that because it’s a T and the line fits 1” inside connectors everything is too long and I can’t get the last piece together. It overlaps and I can’t bend anything enough to get it together.
I’m going to try a connector that has collars that slide back, if I can find one.

I wish it were that simple. The pipe fits inside the connectors. I’ve got a three way reference to help you understand but I feel like I’d get banned if I explained it…

Approximately how much overlap? You can always cut a bit off of each side so it slides on. The pipe doesn't have to go all the way into the T. As long as there's enough for the PVC glue to bond and it's snug.
You can also use a coupler if you want to cut one line a little further up and stick the three ends into the T. Couple it back up after the T is set and you've taken the length you've needed out of the line.

Like I said I don't know irrigation at all but have puttered around with regular plumbing .
Figuring it out in my head I would buy a new T and cut back the PVC and buy something like this for all three sides of the PVC if the cost of the new piping is not too expensive.
If that is two feet? just cut back and put in new T ? Again just guessing
This is the closest I could find to explain the coupling. If you can get two ends in you only need to couple once. Like the single line on the left going into this T. You can shorten it as needed before and after the coupler.

Wonder if a Y and a couple 45s would work for him.

If he's got 2 in the T and needs to bend one a bit because it's not aligned, then maybe a 22.5? I don't think the Y is going to do anything but add more work.

Yeah, something like that might work, if it would hold pressure.
Thanks for thinking, hope no brain cells were damaged in the process

It will hold pressure. Just don't use the rubber style thingy on the top of the pic with the pipe clamps. That'll blow. But the PVC couplers once properly glued should hold more pressure than the pipe.
I've got plenty of brain cells to spare.😉
Edit: If you need more help or further explanation take a picture and I can DM you my email to send it to. It would be easier if I saw what you are working with.

I'd let Petey go and then trade Boeser, JTM, Bo and QH at the deadline/end of the season and tank next season for Bedard and the next OV and use all the picks, prospects to make sure I get them... Of course in this scenario, JB, TG and the rest are long gone.

A teardown and rebuild when this team has finally got quality young depth in all positions... because of an offer sheet to 1 player.
YouTube can be helpful too, Just a quick search with your criteria, ( irrigation systems line is too long to get into the connector.) With specifics you might get some extra help.

I debate the 'quality' of depth, but my point is, with an OS to Petey, you have to ask yourself if you can build around him or end up stagnating like TML with their Big 4. If it's going to prevent the team from being able to sign Boeser, Hoglander, et. al, then maybe you move on from Petey, realize that you have an opportunity to get that McDavid or Crosby-lite generational talent in Bedard and start over. Tying up your cap to match an offer sheet that's designed to screw you over is bad business... Then again, this is JB we're talking about and probably will sign Petey for whatever the theoretical OS might have been anyways.
