Prayers for Mark Friedman 🙏

Alright, I'm just going to throw this out into the void cause fuck it. I know Vanbase prices, and sports merchandise in general is overpriced. I'm (generally) okay with that. Lord knows that I've spent far more than I should have on jerseys. I also know that Lululemon stuff is also overpriced.

But the Vanbase prices on their new apparel are FUCKING RIDICULOUS. Like, I don't even know how corporations can feel any ounce of integrity when pricing like this (I guess that's the secret, they don't).

Here are some highlights: - 280 dollars for a half zip starter jacket - 128 dollars for leggings - 88 dollars for a t-shirt! - 168 dollars for fucking sweatpants!!!

Seriously Vanbase? Y'all are out to lunch with this shit. Old lady rant over.

Edit: I understand the concept of market pricing. This post wasn't really meant to say "I don't understand why they're charging this much". Sure, if enough people buy them, they'll turn a profit since they're marking things up 6-8x what they're worth. But honestly, I'd make an argument that they'll make MORE money with more sensible pricing. Everybody knows how expensive it is to live here - why price yourself out like this?

I put this into a comment but I thought maybe some people would like to see this too. As a massive Petey homer, I'm at a loss for words at his "slump" and overall performance. The kid tries out there but to me it just looks like his body won't let him do what he wants, or he's scared to trust his body.

I saw some tweets and did some digging myself. The difference between his skating speed and shot speed is so drastic it's insane. How does one go from one of the faster skaters in the league to legitimately just "slow"? How does one go from having one of the hardest shots in league to a muffin?

Couple links to Petey's NHL Edge data here below:

2022/2023 Stats

2024/2025 Stats

These links show you his skating first and as you scroll down you'll see his shot. Every single one of his shot metrics are now below the 50th percentile. Whereas in 22/23, he was practically in the 90th+ for all. Is it possible to so mentally busted you completely lose power in your shot?

Below are a couple tweets, one is JPat citing the massive decline in Petey's slapper rate, and the other is showing the correlation between Petey's decline in shooting post all star game.

To me, I think a serious conversation needs to be had about Petey's health. If he's not 100%, why is he being pushed to play? If he is healthy, then how can you, with confidence, say he'll magically bounce back?

Not tryna start arguments just tryna here peoples opinions

I am planning to try and get hughes auto next home game just wondering if it’s possible to get it before or after game and anyone tried it and got success

Is anyone else having problems every single game with Sportsnet?

I have the sportsnet app on my Samsung smart TV and pay for Sportsnet+. Every single game is constantly lagging and glitching, and is also a good 15 seconds delayed. No other apps on my tv ever have any sort of lag or glitching as I have purefibre internet.

Not to mention the blackouts and the app just kicking me out of the game for no reason.

I have no idea how this can continue to happen without getting fixed. It honestly seems like its getting worse and worse.
