[AjaxManifesto]

Soul crushing for the WIld

Nice goal. Big win. Another on Monday and we might actually sneak in.

 

[TheOrganist]

Fleury really blows. As usual. Nice win.

 

[AjaxManifesto]

Nice pass by Kappy

 

[TheDizee]

That was a very bad pass to make in overtime with a tired opposition on the ice.


Luckily Saad ends it after Binny came through.

it was bad but the wild also had 4 people on the ice there when they had possession and stole the puck. should have been a gimmie penalty call. glad they still lost.

 

[Davimir Tarablad]

Post TDL Kapanen continues to excel.

 

[Stealth JD]

LOL - trade Kyrou. What a bum. Only three today. Should have scored four!

 

[BlueDream]

I am shocked that a Kapanen shift in OT ended in a win for us.

Nice goal, Saad.

 

[PocketNines]

Congrats to Kyrou. Huge game by him. This was the best game he ever played IMO

Finish will be really important then.

I can’t speak to the heat element as I haven’t felt with that as a big factor.

Polyurethane (oil based) is probably the most bulletproof, but it essentially makes the surface plastic and if you concerned about off-gassing/VOCs it’s not great. Water based isn’t as durable, but it’s less toxic. So there is some trade off. It’s a multiple coat process no matter what, with sanding in between. Oil based will likely yellow over time, particularly with sun light so take that into account.

There is a bit of a move to hard wax finishes for furniture these days. There is a greater range of effectiveness in the manufactures in terms of protection, ease of application and VOC levels. The best I know of is Rubio Monocoat. You can order it directly from them. It claims no VOCs. It actually smells good to me (it’s slightly sweet), but that’s not a great reason for selecting a finish. Anyway, it claims to be a one coat application and I have to say that it’s the easiest application I have ever used. It’s almost fool proof so long as you wipe off the excess. Super easy to do. It isn’t cheap, but you need very little, like surprisingly little. You can also easily make quick repairs whereas with poly you have to strip the whole desk down and start over if there is a problem or if it needs maintenance. It’s promoted for furniture and floors, so it has some durability. There are pigment options if you don’t want a pure raw finish. (With poly you would have to stain first, if that’s your thing). That’s what I would recommend for finishes in general. But I have no idea about the heat component. You could probably call them if you are interested.

Thank you for the information I'm going to check them out and watch YouTube videos about it later.

Saad redeemed himself for his bad defense earlier in the game.

I liked Kappy's pass...well done

No cannons will be fired. (Game is in Vegas)

Might as well root for Tampa in LA too.

Saad had enough and said we gotta go. grab my stuff. loved the duel stick break from skater and Fleury. ha.

If the Blues can push themselves into or even just close to the playoffs I definitely can see them adding in the offseason. Especially with 12 mil in Cap space and everyone coming off the books being mostly useless.

Fire it anyway!

Kyrou already has 4 career Hattys while with the Blues. Tarasenko only had 5

 

[Snubbed4Vezina]

I was at the game today and you know what? I came to the realization that we should trade Jordan Kyrou.

 

[Xerloris]

It's his fault we even had to go to OT. One of his shots didn't go in earlier in the game, he absolutely needs traded.

Plenty of ammo to make moves too

Wild want it more

We want the draft pick

well every team gets a draft pick...

Of course. I was talking about draft position.

He really was all over the place. The goals speak for themselves but there were multiple defensive plays that I watched from the stands and asked, “Who was that?”

Jordan Kyrou.

I have taken a strong stand on Kyrou and IMO the space for strong stands is created by willingness to give credit against what you have previously observed
