  2. Update 4 - Anyone hiring a server security guy?

     

    Our server's been buffed. If you notice any downtime, just email James. He has me on speed dial.

     

    Update 3 - It's not fixed, though the slowdowns seem to be longer in between. Spikes are bad:

    Back to it...

     

    Update 2 - I think it's fixed.

     

    Update - The server's under attack from... not sure where. Site may be slow/down while I figure out how to mitigate it.

  3. Hey all, don't have a look at the previous topic in this forum because it definitely hasn't been a year since I found a fix for wonky PMs. 

    I've been in school, ok??

     

    I switched our server e-mail platform to an external program called SendGrid. They're well-known in the digital marketing world and so far the integration with our server is flawless. What does this mean? When you receive a PM notification from our forum, it'll now look like so:

    There should be no more delay in notifications or e-mails getting rejected by Gmail/Hotmail/Yahoo/etc. servers as sendgrid.net has a much higher reputation than ours. Still testing, but I don't expect any issues.

     

    Because we're still using the @capwisehockey.com domain, your e-mails may still be sent to your junk mail inbox. Simply mark one as "not spam" and they'll be delivered to your main inbox again.

     

    If your experience is at all different from the above, please let me know!

     

    Thanks

  4. I don't know much about Hunter other than he was in the running for the Leafs job. Not sure how to feel about it, though he's definitely been successful.

    That defense is horendous

     

    Well, it's only horrendous because Chiarelli couldn't adapt. His solution to replacing our top puck mover (Klefbom, injured) was by trading for Petrovic and Manning... two guys who definitely aren't going to replace that capability in any way, shape or form. Right now we have nothing but defensive Dmen in the top six, so who's getting the puck to McDavid? I think that decision is making the entire team way worse off than it is. With Klefbom and Sekera (hopefully) coming back, we should see an improvement. On top of that, guys like Jones, Bear, Bouchard are making their way up as decent puck movers. I think by next year the D core will be balanced and our focus will be on finding some dang wingers.

  5. He was brutal but also gave us the Oilers first playoff run in a decade. While I fantasize what a Hall - McDavid - Draisaitl top line (with a competent Eberle on the 2nd line) could have done to the league, I'm now kind of stuck wondering - What the hell do they do now? Chiarelli + McLellan were both external hires with pretty legit credentials (I realize Chia left on a bad note in Boston) and things still soured on them remarkably quickly.

  6. 43 minutes ago, Dougall said:

    I love me some Leafs, but President's trophy is a VERY bold prediction.

     

    I think that 100 points for Laine might be a little high.

     

    Others could be right.

     

    That's not very BOLD!

     

    I feel like Dahlin is getting underrated. I bet he wins the Calder with 50+ points.. and a possible +/- of -50.

  7. The functionality used to be there, but someone or some company abused it and the Discord developers removed it. 

     

    I think the plan is to use Discord for hosting event nights (more or less). If there's a night with a lot of games, we can turn it into a community night so people show up. Maybe this Saturday? @Ydomat

  8. To OTT : 

    Tierney
    Balcers
    DeMelo
    Norris
    Conditional 2nd (2019)
    Conditional 1st (2020)
    If Karlsson re-signs, OTT gets a conditional 2nd (2021)

     

    To SJ:

    Erik Karlsson

    Francis Perron

     

     

    Wow. I was hoping Meier would be staying, and he did, but that is a whole lot of B-level prospects there instead...

  9. I think a conservative estimate for Kovalchuk is 20 goals, 20 assists this year. That still has to be a better option than having Iafallo on Kopi's line. I'm with Salros and am bullish for Kopitar to have another strong year.

     

    As for the last keeper... I'd say flip a coin. If forced, I think I'd vote Kuznetsov.
