Habs would have been fine either way, not a ton of glaring needs other than the magical "first line centre." Which hopefully is either Suzuki or Kotkaniemi.

Pretty much my thoughts. This 3 2nd lines is just as good as a 1 2 3 isn't true

Depends what the rest of the kitchen looks like, if it's old cabinets I would'nt the buyers are going to factor in redoing the kitchen anyway.

getting nervous the Habs might be legit with a solid center group for years? We already know they are solid on D with the group of prospects coming
- Symba007

Not really scared just yet of a centre group that has a career high of 53 points.

Matthews is 23. When does he take that big step forward?

Until somebody does something they haven't done it. Projections are a fools errand and become less and less likely to be met as a player ages, like say Drouin. I liken it to NFL starting QBs. The farther down the list your guy is from Mahomes/Rodgers the better your supporting cast needs to be. Right now in terms of #1 C the Habs are at best in the bottom half of the league until proven otherwise

I don't watch a lot of football, but QB's seem insane to me. How is it that sport that has like 40mil people (lets just say that's the pool of talent for sake of argument) can't get more than 5-6 great QB's at one time?

Position is a lot more mental than physical and a lot of guys who make it that far do so on their physical gifts which don't translate as well when 300 lbs + men are just as fast and agile as you

javex....not much works on those.

Best way is to use this


- Symba007


Buddies of mine told me to buy this:



It's the same color as when I bought the house but you might be right. Bought brush drill bits to clean those about 2 years ago but it didn't really work, I used regular cleaning product though so that might be the cause...

I wouldn't remove the grout in a house I'm selling

I'm not a very manual guy...I try to keep the work I do in the house to a minimum so I don't (frank) anything up.

Could probably try a dremel with a metal brush to just grind the top portion of the grout
- Fredobbface


The grout is already not leveled with the ceramic on the counter and that's why I hate it...I'm not gonna remove another layer of it.

You'd just think that by the sheer numbers it wouldn't be so hard to find like 10 guys who are good at one time

Michael Vick is a great example, boy was he gifted, not so much on the mental side

Most expensive position and highly drafted. It limits development time, there is no development league. NCAA teams largely don't even huddle let alone let QBs call plays and the plays tend to have defined routes. In the NFL they need to go through progressions and read defenses pre and post snap and get the ball out of their hand in 2.5 seconds. It's a lot

He was one of few athletic enough to get away with things but pretty much this exactly

Agreed.

It's too bad people snubbed it because of the first one, it deserved better.

I finished Wargroove the other day and I am now splitting my time between Two point hospital with the girlfriend on Switch and Hades on my PC.

Freaking hooked on Hades, amazing game.
