I really feel like we need to let the markets take care of themselves IMO, since 2008 we've pumped so much public money into the markets that they no longer reflect the "real" state of the US economy. If we let the market go, there's no way it would be over 25,000 right now. It's on a seemingly odd sugar high. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just think it needs to get worse before it gets better... the wealth disparity is astonishing in my opinion. I work three jobs and noone does anything.. they just having meetings... its like we live in a state of institutional welfare.. the haves and have nots.. if you make it to this side of the fence.. you can collect a paycheck by sending emails and talking on the phone all day.. If you are on the other side you are overworked, under paid and probably laid off. I feel like there needs to be a big correction. I hope to cash in on it.

This is the first year in 42 years that I haven't been to OC because of the pandemic but plan on going back next year. There's been way too much violence down there this summer.

His defense was atrocious and he was non-existent on offense. Perhaps you guys get lucky and he reverts back to his 2016 or 2017 season stats... but that's an awful contract signing IMO... now you have no money left to sign anyone else in FA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He actually played pretty well when paired with Petterson , and I think he'll fit well next to Orlov. That said, I would have thought he would have been cheaper. I believe the caps still have 3M in cap space because Kempney is going to be on LTIR. Figure Siegs gets 1.2 or so, and hopefully they'll use the rest to add some scoring punch to the bottom 6. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a beautiful bed and breakfast up here in Randolph they are selling for $1.5M.

Boyd signed with the Maple Leafs FWIW Doesn't sound like it after you guys signed Van Riemsdyk to a one year 800K deal -- https://www.prohockeyrumors.com/2020/10/washington-capitals-sign-trevor-van-riemsdyk.html Quote That doesn’t necessarily mean that van Riemsdyk has more to give than the 15-ish minutes he’s averaged over the last two seasons, but it certainly could. The Capitals lost Michal Kempny to an Achilles injury recently and have now brought in both Justin Schultz and van Riemsdyk to help that defensive group. It could also mean that another move is coming though, given Washington’s cap situation. Sure, the team will have some extra flexibility when they move Kempny to long-term injured reserve, but he only carries a $2.5MM cap hit and the team is now over the salary cap ceiling. Jonas Siegenthaler was a regular last year and needs a new contract, while the team also could use another experienced forward addition. Still, an $800K bet on van Riemsdyk seems like a prudent one for a team that knows first hand that long Stanley Cup runs require more than just six defensemen. Even if he’s the extra, he’s not costing them much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VirgilCain Posted October 11, 2020 Share Posted October 11, 2020 Hey All - Long time lurker; first time posting. Anyone else see a bolide meteor Last night sometime around 8-9pm? It was moving almost directly west to east and the green glow could be spotted through the thin cloud cover. Pretty spectacular.

That would be a hell of a deal if they were perced or have sewer available. There are 3, 5+ acre lots near me on the market for 50-60k, with standard septic/sand mound approvals.
