    How much Binging is required to earn $10, and can I stack that $10 or does it expire monthly?

    5 points per search on any browser, 50 points max per day...  x 30 = 1500 points a month
    More if you use Edge...  and all the other things they list.

     

    10,000 points = $10    or 9300 points at level 2...  and cheaper from there.

    I don't use this, but just checked on my microsoft account.   https://rewards.microsoft.com/

  2. Week 1! 

    First, welcome back.  We are a small pool this year of 5.   But a lot of fireworks to start it off.

    First, party foul to My Top-Notch Pick Set and their non-selection, taking their first strike.
    Next, the Bengals lost to the Steelers in a game no one seemed to want to win, 23-20 in OT.  This gives DD56 and Dynamo Nation their first strike.
    The Giants finally have a winning record as they narrowly beat the Titans 21-20, giving David's Definitive Pick Set his first strike.

    Leaving only Aylbert with a commanding victory as the Commanders defeated the lowly Jaguars 28-22.

    he’s married to the most beautiful woman on the planet, has a couple of cute kids, is sexy as fvck himself and retired before he turned 40.

    decent life 

    He pretty much retired before 30 with his injuries - his last game was 3/15/2018 (27 yrs, 13 days old).  He's only 31 today and he earned ~7 million in the NHL.

    He had so much promise, but like others said...  just couldn't score unless it was a shootout (20 career goals, 13 career shootout goals in 8 seasons)

    They would've been in about the same boat had they signed JG, which they were willing to do...JG just didn't want to be there anymore.  

    Yeah those deals are always risky, but at least the Flames get the chance to stay relevant for a while, instead of having to enter a rebuild (which of course doesn't automatically pay off).

    Agreed Calgary needed a "win" after JG and Tkachuk wanted out, but I wouldn't be too excited by this. 

    JG signed a 7 year / 9.75mm deal at 28, taking him to 35. 
    Huberdeau signed longer, for more money and is 2 years older (on effective dates) with an 8year / 10.5 million deal starting the following season, taking him to 38.     

    He's going to be unmovable and eat up a ton of cap space in the end (when they will need to embrace a full rebuild).

    Man, gotta give the Flames some credit here...they were able to make the absolute best out of a potentially brutal situation.  Getting Huberdeau locked up so quickly is impressive.  They basically replaced JG and were able to get some pieces for Tkachuk.  

    But they had to pay him 10.5mm for 8 years, starting next year at age 30…   It locks up a star player, but he is literally on his back 9 (years) at best.

  6. This is it a prove it deal, and he will be an RFA again next year too.  I’m fine with this.   Do it again, and he will get paid.

    Last thing anyone wants is an arbitration hearing where you leave it with hard feelings as they talk down on you as a player.

    Agreed.  The one thing I'll say in defense of the "lighter" packages is depending upon who can actually get involved, sometimes these players go for a little less than expected.  But I still think this Devils would have to pay. 

    I can see Tarasenko as a possibility to NJ.  Devils can take on his hit...with Palat on board, they'd be getting older in a hurry though. 

    We could likely get Tarasenko at a discount if it helps St. Louis getting Tkachuk.
    Especially as Tarasenko has an expiring contract after this season.

  8. October 12, 1996, when I was 12.  A home game verse the Dallas Stars that the Devils lost 4-2.

    https://www.hockey-reference.com/boxscores/199610120NJD.html

    My first girlfriend's family was really into hockey.  They had 2 seats on the glass and two in the lower level.   They took me to the game and I got to sit on the glass for the 2nd period, first and only time.
    I was hooked then and watched most games, gradually becoming a die hard fan.    A good period to start fandom :)

    Thanks Kristan!

    lets calm down a little bit haha 

    Lets remember that we almost ALL fully believed Larsson, Urbom, Gelinas, Corrente, Merril, Fayne, Helgeson, Burlon, Scarlett etc etc was going to be the next Stevens Niedermayer Rafalski Daneyko haha

    Our D and its future honestly looks real good, but still, let's wait a bit before claiming we'll win a cup with it hahaha

    And before that was Paul Martin and David Hale as the next Nieds and Stevens.

    Its been too long since we’ve had a stacked team.   I’m optimistic we will be there soon.

    I couldn’t find much on Hauser, other than that he was ranked 100th in European skaters. I’m guessing he was a reach pick maybe? Had nice numbers in the Czech under 20 league, over a ppg. 

    It allows us to close the book on that massive Keith Kinkaid trade we did in February 2019 though :)

    but yeah, not always “logical” who individual fans gravitate to.  

    Colin White for me.
    Bobby Holik until he signed with the Rangers for 9mm a year in 2002...  couldn't blame him, but also never forgave him.

    We don't always realize but we've been so damn spoiled as fans having Brodeur and Doc for SO long, it became our standard.

    Now for the rest of our lives, anyone stepping in those roles will always be pale in comparison. 

    And Stevens...
