Not a good picture for the players for the next couple of years.

There is a BIG difference between a line cook and a chef. If you don’t understand that difference I can’t help you understand.

It’s like suggesting that a day labourer and a contractor are the same job…

Yep big difference between the two. Training. time spent, travel, etc.
However, a line cook at at chain restaurant, like Earl's was grossly underpaid when I worked there. Like I said, my top wage was $8.25 x 8 hours = $66 bucks a shift before tax. We would get a tiny portion of the tipout from the servers, like $50 every 2 weeks. Meanwhile a server was getting $5.50 per hour x 8 hours = $44. But getting at least $100 in tips. So about $150 per shift.
It was the highest stressed job I have ever had.

Should I have added a trigger warning? Is Frank on the triggered list?

A couple points after getting caught up:

On most boards, Quinn to NJD would cost Ty Smith and one of Mercer or Holtz. They still likely add, and this was seen as consensus. A lot of NJD fans thought it was fair without them adding to those two.

Of the top centre's in the league, most of them are not the best at face-offs for half their career. A lot of them are below 45% on the season. I don't think face-offs are a huge factor for what makes someone a great centre.

Boeser looks big Not sure if the guys he’s playing against are small making him look big or if he’s put on some actual muscle/weight.

The time he did in the 100 m would have won gold I believe . He had the best times in the decathlon and would have won some of the stand alone races too . It is a hell of an accomplishment for sure.

He set an Olympic record breaking the 9000 point club ( don't think it has been done before) and he did it in 40 degrees Celsius temperatures.

I don’t believe that’s true lol

A study of the unvaccinated in Cda, UK and US found they had “less agreeable personalities”, are less cooperative with others, more selfish, and more extroverted.

In the vernacular, the term is “bumholes”. Maybe it’s time to start treating them as such.

Yup but Booner and Ruby will keep saying Petey is not a center.

Keep telling me what I think to strengthen your argument. Keep telling me what NHL players want to strengthen your argument. You must be The Amazing Kreskin to know what everyone thinks without them telling you.

Since when is not needing line mates to take face offs for you a "face-off specialist"? The league must have hundreds of face-off specialists then.

- boonerbuck



You're telling me what you think saying Petey needs someone to take faceoffs for him

Just because JTM, a natural center who's better at face-offs then Petey, did; doesn't mean he needed it. Then saying that he's not a center because Canucks had better face-off guys then Petey is false. That's some magical deductions worthy of the Ruby award. Like his QH isn't good at hitting defense he must be a winger.

I’d take Smith +.
On a great centre those that PK are truly great. FO’s give or take on that. Great scoring C’s driving play are elite imo. In my guesstamation there are only a handful of elite C’s in the league with a bunch in next tier as in very good. Calling those a true 1C.
