Go for pimsleurDamn, Duolingo hasn't gotten to that quite yet. I'm still at "Sinä olet hauska ja komea/kaunis"
Finnish has 15 noun cases:

Because what you do with prepositions, we do with cases (a large part of it anyway)
English is easy to learn because of the exposure, it is the linqua franca of Earth. But if you actually try to study it like many other foreign languages, it's pretty damn hard compared to some of the others.The more I study other languages (I'm perusing so many on Duolingo these days) the more I see how English makes no sense.

I think I know English pretty well, I've had top grades in English all the way from basic school to polytechnic. I never actually studied English or tried to make sense of any rules. Never did homework. Just spend enough times with video games and internet forums, and turns out that's how you learn to use a language. By actually using it.
Hey me too! Although RS was proper English, not American English. I think school might have been the same way. Then you have American English coming at you from media.Indeed. English isn't easy, but at least here in Finland we hear it so much in our everyday life that we get used to it. TV, movies, social media, video games etc.
RuneScape taught me a lot more English than my school did . Not to talk bad things about my education, not at all, but a 9 year old kid having to figure out that you have to "buy a fishing net to catch shrimps" or "mine iron and copper ore and melt them together in order to get a steel bar".. yeah, it did a lot .

Bednar takes time for players to gain his trust. The lazy, slow back check he had that led to a goal a handful of games ago probably reset his trust-o-meter back to zero. But I agree he's played really well lately and he will eventually earn more ice time with Bednar.Bedsy for some reason refuses to play him. He's been really good after his first few games, his speed, puck protection and IQ are all really good
I feel like a line of Lehky-Pars-Necas would be really solid, replicating the line Marty played on in Carolina
He's been playing on the 2nd line for a few games now...Bedsy for some reason refuses to play him. He's been really good after his first few games, his speed, puck protection and IQ are all really good

2nd line in name only.He's been playing on the 2nd line for a few games now...
I think if you add-up the TOI since Necas and Drury joined you'll likely get something very close for all forwards except the 4 PP1 forwards. Bednard seems to have moved to a 1st line + 3 3rd lines models. At least until Nuke comes back.2nd line in name only.
4th line minutes.
Indeed, English is really grammatically anarchic compared to many other languages, but sooo many words makes it fun to write and speak. Btw Danish is also very random grammatically and has similarities to english in that regard. But we have 10% of the words of English, so we just steal english words. In fact Danish has become a creolized English-Danish language. Old people, like me, like to rant about it.The more I study other languages (I'm perusing so many on Duolingo these days) the more I see how English makes no sense.
