Oh FFS, how is it that my LLKL team is having so many injuries, and they're my absolute top guys too. Hartnell, Kesler, Mike Smith, Lehtonen, Callahan, and Nikitin. Only Nikitin isn't a top player, and aside from Toews, those 5 are literally my 5 best.

Poor cat .. I can't change the number of IR spots right now, but we could track IR players on the forum so other teams can't pick up those players .. Basically, Meow, you can drop your injured players in ESPN and pick someone else up to replace them and as long as you post it in the forum that it's your player no one can pick him up

Yeah, I know, I did that today with Smith. I was just letting off steam cause I just can't believe the injuries, and it's not just the number of injuries but who is getting injured. Like...my top 5 guys? Why couldn't it be Jussi "i'm useless" Jokinen???

W/e. All I can do is hope they come back soon.

I got Meszaros, Lupul and Derek Roy down with injury..

 

[MeowLeafs]

So how many IR spots did we settle on? Or did we even settle on anything...

 

[MeowLeafs]

****, I just remembered the fantasy regular season doesn't mirror the actual regular season, correct? It actually finishes much earlier meaning injured players will get even less games, if any.

Yup, playoffs in a fantasy league usually take place during the last 2-3 weeks of regular season.

I have a question.
You know how Universities take your top 6 grade 12 marks and average them out? What if I have 8 courses and 2 of them are 60's. will that affect my chances of getting accepted?

Right now I already have 5 marks completed. 92, 88, 84, 65, 65.

Next semester I have religion, Food and nutrition, and calculus. All that I plan on getting 85+ (I guarantee it )

So I'd have an 86-87ish average for my top 6, but id have two crappy 60's (bio and physics).

I'm scared lol.

The 6 courses they chose is program specific. Check the university sites to see exactly which courses they count. The ones that almost all programs count would be english and math. After their required courses have been counted, they add your next highest marks to get to 6. A couple 60's shouldn't that much of a problem, unless its the core subject for your program. If you have 4 80's and one 60, uni's know what kind of a student you are. Grade 11 marks are a good indicator of consistency. If you have good marks there too, a couple of slip-ups can be overlooked.

I think it would be amazing if the Leafs held open tryouts. Kinda like in the movie Invincible with Mark Wahlberg. Though realistically it would be the Marlies that do it, would be awesome for a nobody to make an AHL team, and who knows, maybe get a shot at the NHL.

I've thought that before too...you'd have to think those tryouts would be intense with all the guys there getting what's likely to be their only shot at the pros. Did they do something similar to that once on that Making the Cut show that was on CBC a few years ago? I forget how it worked but I remember all the players were competing for an invitation to NHL training camp.

I don't think it's you specifically, just all cats in general

Morning lounge.. Woke up a little too late for me to get my morning Tim's on the drive in .. Going through withdrawls already, I feel lost

 

[Finnish your Czech]

Ah alright thanks.

I'm pretty much set on Ted Rogers Accounting and you need an 85ish % I think?
Im pretty sure they take English, Calculus, and Functions so I'm fine with those. (84 in English, 92 in functions, calculus tbd)

The new accounting program at Ted Rogers doesn't state an average that you need because it starts next year, but it's probably in the low 80s.

 

[Phion Keneuf]

Oh boy. I woke up late this morning, missed my exam.

So I called the school and they let me rewrite it. I think I would've gotten the same mark anyways... It was brutal lol

My uncle was pretty amazing at hockey but he was just so short he never had a chance at even trying out for the pros. He is something like 5'6 which nowadays may be doable, but with all the holding and grabbing in hockey back then, not a chance.

Oh boy. I woke up late this morning, missed my exam.

Woah, lucky. Sometimes they are really strict on that stuff.

Sounds like a rough day, friend

 

[Schenn]

Phion. That sucks bro. I once showed up half an hour late to an exam. They let me write it though, thank god.

 

[Schenn]

Are we beating Habs in posts yet?

 

[Grant]

Are we beating Habs in posts yet?

Nope, about 1,150 behind still. Habs play tonight and will likely extend that to 2500+ but we play tomorrow night likely making the gap below 1000 again.

 

[Quarter]

What is up LL.

 

[DD03]

City is shut down. Roads are too icy. City buses won't even go down streets that aren't major. Most highways leaving the city were shut down. Craziness.

Lucky they let you rewrite it. Some girl walked in the room at the end of the exam and my teacher straight up told her she failed it lol.

Been there .. Had the TransCanada Highway, which runs through the middle of Calgary, get shut down outside of city limits as well as the QE2 which runs north to Edmonton and South to Lethbridge shut down too

Literally a day to just not give a ****

Well that's unfortunate.

Pretty much. TransCanada runs right through here as well. They were both shut down as well.

Meh. I go through spurts. Ha
