Offseason Wishlist
  • I’m just waiting for next season at this point. I really wanted to see some changes behind the bench. I support DJ, but not his assistants.

    Whoever we get for Cat will be adequate I think. Our whole Goalie program is a toss up, coaching, strategy, and talent wise—don’t see any other changes happening there, though.

    Would have liked to see Joseph go and add another Connor Brown type player (or THE Connor Brown). Obviously cost/cap is an issue there, though.

    I don’t know, just excited to see the progress the core makes (loved the off-season training videos from Stu and G last summer) and the new ‘style’ DJ wants to bring to his coaching.

  • An open letter to the idiot who stole my backpack on lower charlotte this morning.
  • OP it sucks that someone was shitty enough to steal something so special to you, but paying someone who is already marginalized by society to assault someone seems much more egregiously unethical… never mind illegal.

  • Korpisalo for 5 years at $4m AAV per... thoughts?
  • After the last few years of goalie woes I don’t think I’ll trust again until a goalie actually starts consistently keeping us in or winning games. Love Forsy and like Korpisalo, but goalie program doesn’t deserve and blind faith any more. Prove it or lose it.

  • CAPTCHA presented me with an ethical dilemma
  • Piano sommelier’s recommend tasting upright, with proper posture, to sustain the best notes of ivory, maple, mahogany, and rosewood. Cracking the lid before dining is crucial, and the only way to truly hammer home some of the more subtle dissonance between flavours.

    Edit: If you find your piano is a bit too “stringy”, you may have to cook it longer. Young, over-confident, plucky chef’s often make this mistake.

    Edit 2: over-cooking can also dampen the flavour, fyi.

    Edit 3: one last thing, if the staff haven’t let piano rest, you’ll also want to pedal back your expectations, better to just hit up any other bar and maybe try a classical italian coda.

    Edit 4: sorry, typo… soda.

  • Tardy trio: OC Transpo's worst performing bus routes in May were 11, 75 and 85
  • Would be great if they included how these statistics are collected, measured, and defined. It’s just useless percentiles otherwise.

    Are late/early/on-time arrivals self-reported by the driver? Determined by GPS? Automatically added to a database or manually by a dispatcher? Are they stored and analyzed by an uninvested 3rd party?

    Is ‘on-time’ to the minute? Within 5 minutes? Within 10? Does early count as on-time? If no, how many minutes on either side of the scheduled departure time is still deemed ‘on-time’?

    Also, how is having an overall percentage even helpful? What is the on-time percentage at peak riding times? What is the percentage for residential to business districts (i.e. people trying to get to work on time)?

    I don’t trust these numbers at all as a frequent public transit rider. And no, I’m not taking one of the three lines identified here.

    Lazy journalism in my opinion. Perhaps not the journalist’s fault necessarily, could be on the editor for not approving a thorough report. Post-media spit
