I'm pretty sure someone asked if GM's used CF and apparently it's yes, in the Sens picture of the Parker Kelly signing, you can see CF open in the backround

Another one in Covid protocol after 5 Seattle players were added to Covid protocol, we're getting a bad start

I think they use more unofficial sources than people think, but I'd have no way of knowing. I wonder if Gm's go onto the forums here to get a good laugh. (or worse, an idea)

Yep, Benning wouldn’t be taken seriously on CF even if he’s a GM so he’d fit perfectly with the AGM posters

He'd definitely fit in on AGM. When people tell him his proposals suck, he would double down, just like he does with all his moves in Vancouver.

Well his NHL/NA career was lived short.


He looked pretty promising with the limited amount of ice time he received in Toronto; it's a pretty big shame for him things didn't work out.

He's definitely in the category of players who are too good for the KHL but not good enough for the NHL.

You can sign Veini if you want, the leafs didn't qualify him.

You realize the bisexual superman is Jon Kent (the new superman), son of Clark Kent, not Clark Kent himself right?

I didn’t like it as much as Riordan’s other books but I think that’s mostly because I just like Greek/Roman mythology more and know more about it than Norse mythology, which I think is a pretty common sentiment. It was also less focused on straight white characters, which makes it slightly less relatable to the majority of people (admittedly myself included), but at the same time important for those minorities represented. Been a while since I read it but I’m pretty sure that Magnus Chase was homeless and bi or pan, was dating someone genderfluid, and there was a Muslim valkyrie. Not necessarily the easiest characters for the majority of people to relate to based on their circumstances. Still a pretty good series though, but I’m a fan of Riordan’s writing in general, I think his world building and character development is usually pretty solid.


Don't hijack a series to advance your agenda. Come up with a new one

it's not hijacking to advance an agenda, storylines develop the same way the world develops, they change with the people

Imagine thinking being bisexual is an agenda. Everyone needs role models, not just straight white males. Not everything belongs to you, and if you don’t like it then too bad, you’ve got hundreds of other superheroes to read about that fit your limited worldview. Learn some tolerance.
