  1. Still have time to get you questions in for the second CoDCast this week. If you'd like me to answer things while dying really fast in MWR get those questions in soon! Even @mpclardy and @Phil can get in on it, you guys wanna be in as many CoDCasts this week as me?
  2. Oh I don't doubt that in my 8th season, maybe 7th, I'll be on my way out. However the question at hand is next season and, IMO, us three are the only real options there and of the three I believe I'll have he best shot st success.
  3. I'll take the extra TPE even with depreciation, I think Weinstein and the Cleganes proved what it can do over me the last few years. Besides, Dadonov is the same age as me but far less progressed (and less active to counter regression) and Kopralkov is only one year younger while being close to 200 TPE lower. I don't expect I'll be competing as much in my 8th year, don't get me wrong, but (at the risk of sounding vain) I should be able to manage just fine next year.
  4. We're once again in IW for the CoDCast today, playing some domination and answering questions from @Phil and @mpclardy. There will be another CoDCost recorded this week so if you want questions answered in that one (featuring MWR) go leave them now! *For Holik
  5. Bank and decide later. We get regressed this season so better to be prepared for it; even if that is a little boring. And yes, you did kinda shoot yourself in the foot in regards to passing me. You were so close too haha
  6. Miserable game for my stats but I'll take the win.
  7. I can admit you out-played me most of the game.
  8. GFX wasn't much easier back in the day. Giving new guys 4's was relatively commonplace.
  9. Much better, would have liked to get a shutout on only 17 shots but I'll take a good team win. GG
  10. Worst game of the season so far for me unfortunately, Unassisted had my number. GG.
  11. That depends, does Calgary lag, boost, camp, or cheat?
  12. Feel free to tag me for questions. I don't really see it as spam, more of letting me know when you'll be recording so I remember to ask you stuff.
  13. I'm stuck waiting for my tires to get changed anyway so I might as well get 1 TPE out of it. I want to make something very clear, although it may come as a surprise to many: I don't hate Calgary. In fact some of my best success has come from players on the Wranglers. In Season 3 I won with Sharpe and in S44 I won it again with Miller. I also fully respect what @eaglesfan036 has done with the team in the past couple of seasons. So, with that said, should I have opened the can of worms I did in that trade thread? Probably not, I can admit that. I was having a shitty day and it's annoying to see Seattle have such Free Agent problems while other teams get the players they want AND get a discount on them. I do definitely want to beat the wranglers, don't get me wrong. I sincerely hope we kick their ass this season. I just wanted to make myself clear that I don't dislike the wranglers or their members. I still think an amendment to the rules regarding free agents could be order to avoid these pre-arranged sign and trades. Just because they've always happened doesn't mean they probably should be. That's neither here nor there though. So Calgary, I'm sorry for starting a shit show last night. Please don't hate me because I don't hate you. I just want to beat you. *For Holik
  14. I liked it before you did, no need to spam me haha
  15. It's always a shit show. Pretty sure I've blocked out 85% of my university memories for self preservation. You're in some kind of engineering or something at least right? Better job prospects after. But yeah, I've been there in the Christmas side before. Used to work at a drug store that legally can't close any day of the year so guess who drew the "work until midnight the 24th" straw. You know what's fun? Customers coming in at 11pm the 24th complaining that you're the only store open (duh) and don't have the right cranberry sauce. Yup, good times.
  16. Man, minimum wage is worthless in the US. Is your cost of living that low or is the government just screwing you? NB had one of the lowest minimum wages when I lived there and it was $10.00. Thank God for salaried positions though :). Except those weeks where I work 70 hours and get paid for 40.
  17. Skye putting on a show. GG Davos.
  18. You got almost as many points as they had shots haha
  19. I'll admit I'm guessing on that one but I don't see a lot of reasons for Gow to have signed with Quebec unless something like this was pre-planned.
  20. Maybe it's because I'm on the team he chose to leave, maybe it's because you got a top player for very little. I can admit I'm probably bias on this one but it's still annoying. Having something like this pre-arranged just kinda kills the integrity of Free Agency. No other team standing a chance is one thing but this also adds in the fact that you guys don't even have to pay full price for him.

  22. Never said it was new, doesn't mean I have to like it. Seems like the kind of thing that should involve a loophole getting closed. Something along the lines of "Players signed via FA during the off-season are not eligible to have part of their contract covered via trade." Of course the commishes gain from it so it's not likely.
  23. Well there's a way to skirt the cap, get the player you want to sign somewhere else and then trade basically nothing for them.
  24. Had some major recording issues for my historic 25th anniversary podcast but I think I managed to get the commentary audio to sync up and work, hopefully it's not off. For the 2nd Podcast this week I decided to play some MWR while I answered questions from @Kendrick, @gorlab, and @mpclardy so enjoy! *For Sokolov
