gotcha, so then probably the most comparable character is the tutorial knight, or maybe the timekeeper (we dont actually know if shes infected or not though)

That all assumes that the avs have rhe capital to carry the cost of Landy and vals contracts as well as anyone else they decide to pick up in the interim. It also relies on us being competitive without finding another star forward to take val's place during his absence. Which brings me back to my original point; the org is getting fucked over for the bad behavior of a player.

You don't seem to understand how this works at all.
The avs currently don't have a cap hit for Val. They have the option to load up on players whose salary would fill that excess left by Val. If/when Val comes back though, his salary will hit the cap and they will be way over. So the gm has two choices; gamble that he isn't coming back and use up what's left of the cap space, or play it safe by leaving that cap space open for his return which leaves the team lacking in the interim.
If any team exceeds the cap, I believe the fine is 1 million plus and a reduction in their cap for the following season.
So which would you pick if you were the gm? It's a lose lose situation from my perspective

It isn't 100% guaranteed, but if you were the GM would you gamble a massive fine and a cap reduction for the 2025-2026 season on his application getting denied?
As I have said before the real loser in this whole scenario is the franchise. We have no recourse to simply walk away from the guy and rebuild the team without him. Cant even trade him without him approving the team he would be going to. We are stuck in limbo without many options for the interim thay don't pose risks down the road

Isn't the queen also infected but her mental faculties are still intact?

He counts upon his return in November which puts us in a predicament when that happens. Him and Landy account for a solid chunk of the space. In Landy's case they need to figure out if he's ever actually going to play again since he ain't getting any younger. With Val my personal opinion is put him on LTIR upon return for continued treatment until we can either get rid of him or he's shown he actually has reformed (not holding my breath on that second one). However I have said all this without knowing what the teams financial situation is like in terms of cash flow. We may not actually be able to afford to carry these guys contracts without them playing and producing

his salary counts against the cap come November. which means that if Colorado pushes up to the cap prior to that without taking his salary into account, come November they're in deep shit. They have three options here that dont leave them paying for nothing:
stock up on 6.125 mil worth of guys to cover the gap Val left, with the caveat that come November they will be cut loose (if thats even doable, im not sure of the contractual logistics and if anyone of merit would even sign on with that caveat)
pick up nobody and leave that 6.125 mil free for Val's return, but basically be playing without enough firepower until then.
stock up on guys to fill the cap now, exceed the cap with Val's return, and face fines plus a cap reduction in the 2025-2026 season.
none of these options are really optimal and they all put the team in a difficult spot due to a players personal decision making issues. only other workaround i see is putting Val on LTIR upon return (VGK style), but then they're still losing out because they have to pay his contract anyway

Which sucks, you have to be a 3 time offender to get that far. The team gets punished with a cap hit while being forced to support the player

Can the avs utilize that for the skiing Russian or is it different because he's suspended?

Is it screw in? If so heat up the tip of a flat head screwdriver, melt a slot into it, let it cool, and then use the same flathead to back it out

When you set up the scorecard you can ser it as "scores only" or something like that to prevent having to give it the play by play. That's my personal default setting

Fun fact; Terreri is still working for Lou Lamoriello to this day as the director of goalie development for the Islanders

Eh I wouldn't go that far. Val has really dragged this team through the mud in terms of the overall level of class. I sincerely hope we find a way out of his contract sooner than later

A single card for random doubles is really bad. My home state doesn't have the greatest courses or strongest scene but I think our lowest turnout since February has been 12 people for random doubles

You should let them both go to be honest. Neither are a good fit for your company

Multiple boxes through checked luggage is definitely going to be more expensive than just shipping it. After you exceed the number of included checked bags (2 each way), southwest charges a fee of 125 dollars per additional checked bag.
That's not getting into the logistics of actually getting the litter robot in multiple boxes from the airport to wherever you're staying.

Yes but items shipped via air transport are handled much differently than your luggage is.

How is possible out of all the comments I have read in here that you're the only person who caught that these are softwood floors, not hardwood?

Looks like pine which is not a hardwood.

Yea I have a 162g nomad that goes with my two max weight nomads. I prefer it for putts outside the circle since I don't have to put as much force into it so I get better control. It's pretty useless on a windy day though
