In must win games…. We lost with UPL in net.


Did you see the goaltending during the playoffs? UPL isn’t even close to those guys.

Also, do you trust UPL like you did with Ryan Miller?

If the answer is no. Then I’m right

UPL is fine if he maintains his current level of play or improves. Would also help if the team played some semblance of defense in front of him. I say this as someone who thought he would top out as a backup. Glad I was wrong about that. Still think it might be a little early to count on him and Levi as your two though.

Washed: I played it safe and dropped a grand on GameStop at $23 and sold today at 46.50. I tend to be too cautious investing imo. I might have been a little early on getting out too, but I regret not putting a larger number down more. I should have realized that Roaring Kitty was going to get the stonk crowd going. 100% on a thousand return in a week is still not to shabby.

Never a bad trade when you’re taking profits.

I have 1,000 shares at $29.44 and 3 call options, $70 expiring 6/28, they cost $280 each and already up 332%, they might be ITM by open, I’m just going to let it ride.

I'm not yet sold on UPL, intrigued for sure though. I was never completely sold on Miller either. He was good for sure, just never really saw him "lock it down" in key situation, seemed to come up short. That's my memory of him.

Like to see a 1yr Deal for UPL, gotta prove it wasn't a fluke.

I’m not going to say I am the biggest Star Wars fan but I know I am obsessed with it in a way a lot of people think they are.

The Sequel Trilogy was, is and always will be awful. A pure cash grab with the wrong people in charge.

The Prequel Trilogy was, is and always will be objectively GREAT. It is pure FAN SERVICE and despite its issues, it is underrated. I consider Phantom Menace to be among the best Star Wars content and people are really resentful toward it for selfish reasons.

Original Trilogy was is and always will be Space Opera masterpiece. It is objectively good. Has not aged well. Lucas erased all original cuts of the movies, we might never see them remastered in 4k without the digital effects added.

Empire Strikes Back is the most overrated Star Wars movie, only since topped by The Farce Awakens. What a boring (frank)ing movie, seriously.

However, Clone Wars and especially Rebels is peak Star Wars. Rebels might be the single best Star Wars content out there.

Mandalorian, Andor, Rogue One, Asokha, Book of Boba Fett… All good. All of it is Fan Service. You don’t like some of it? Too bad, go watch Empire, twat.

Obi Wan is the Solo of the Disney+ content. I enjoyed it but wow, a lot of issues. But still - Fan Service.

The Acolyte is very Mid. Very Mediocre. Very close to the Sequel Trilogy but still, I think it will stand out.

Always gonna be casting, lore and pacing issues. But they are giving us the content we always wanted. It is the New Expanded Universe. Just enjoy it.

Rogue One is the only oddity. It is still such a ballsy move, I think it was a complete fluke. It was neither Fan Service nor cash grab… It wasn’t basking in it’s own piss like Empire and it was different enough but so unique within the universe… Andor came close but it’s still modern Star Wars.

Rogue One is special, and I am so happy we got it when we did.

When you win a bet, the first thought is almost always how it could've or should've been more.

Tough to put that mindset aside and focus on just being happy for the win.

UPL is very comparable to Miller.

You know, guys, Levi could just be Jonas Enroth all over again.

We should draft Kenta Isogai in the draft this year to make up for that Taro Tsujimoto crap

Nothing is out of the question, but I'd wager a large amount he's a starting goalie, if not considerably better. He has the talent to become one of the better goalies in the league IMO.

Edit: I'll say, if it was between keeping him or UPL, I'd keep Devon.

Yes. I think they're very equivalent talents right now. If you accept my evaluation of them being at least pretty similar, which I know many don't, but if you do, you take the 22yo over the 25yo.

We're likely losing one to expansion either way, so hopefully the brass are considering this as well.

There will always be another trade.

It’s already back to $37 in pre-market. Depending on how ballsy you are it may grind down and offer another entry point.

Share dilution and revenue miss isn’t surprising.

I stayed away, but credit to you and others that took a slice a pie on the way up. Just not my song and dance

I'd feel good about them as a duo heading into the season. Better than I have in a long time. UPL was great last year, but I think it's almost a coin toss who is #1 at the end of the season.

Depending on how things go, a trade next offseason is an option. I'd draft another.
