Mile High Mailbag


What's funner than a Rick Roll? Pretty much everything. Everything, that is, but another edition of the Mile High Mailbag. Since we don't get real letters here like the big boys, we answer imaginary questions based on real search words people used to get to this fine site.

hi she it does

I have no idea what this means, but the first result of the search (which was in TURKISH) sends you here. The second sends you to MHH. The second result sends you to a page title "High-income women get more oral sex. Maybe." I honestly have no idea how the googles made that happen, but it makes me smile.

Hot Pocket nickname

Liles did an Altitude commercial in which he refused to share his hot pocket with Kyle Keefe.

I have heard tell, however, that he is very generous with his hot pocket when it comes to Beachie.

Thus, the Hot Pocket name.

Fabian Brunnstrom is available. He’s a young, scoring LW with plenty of size and speed, but needs a change of scenery. Dallas can’t take any salary in return though, with Hicks’ money situation.

I’m not nearly as high on Stoa as you. I have no issues trading a slow probable bottom 6er (where we’re well stocked anyways) for a potential top 6 winger.

by thedoctor on Nov 14, 2009 11:14 AM MST up reply actions  

Brunnstrom has been up for what, parts of 3 seasons? He’s a nice 2nd/3rd line winger, no doubt.

I’m simply not convinced that Stoa has even begun to show what he has in him and though he was not the fastest guy on the ice in the preseason, I think that some time in the A will do him worlds of good and believe that he can be a Ryan Smyth type guy on one of our top lines (on Dutchie’s wing? That would be sweet.).

I have no doubts about what happens when Clark leaves (we have a surfeit of current and upcoming defensemen), I’m just not willing to walk away from Stoa a few months out of college. Not for Brunnstrom straight up at least.

2009-2010 Colorado Avalanche - We really suck, it's just that we didn't get the memo.

by Hopfenkopf on Nov 14, 2009 11:30 AM MST up reply actions  

This is Brunnstrom’s 2nd year in the NHL.

What is it about Stoa’s game that leads to believe he has so much untapped potential? I’ve watched him in college, watched him at camps…every time I come away unimpressed.

It’s not so much about walking away from Stoa to me, it’s swapping for a prospect that better fits our needs. Brunnstrom is a goalscorer and has the speed to play with Duchene, Stoa is not a goalscorer nor is he fast.

by thedoctor on Nov 14, 2009 11:41 AM MST up reply actions  

Looking at Brunnstrom (and I’ll readily admit that it’s only been over the course of +/- 10 games between this year and last), the thing that continually strikes me is that he is, in my opinion, a slightly taller, heavier, Svatos.

That isn’t even fair per se, since Svats now plays some appreciable defense (not particularly well, mind you), but Brunnstrom is damned near as bad at playing defense as Tucker was last year. He just doesn’t give a shit.

I’m not here to tell you that Stoa is the next Iginla, I just don’t know that I want to give him up to get what seems to me to be the carbon copy of a guy that drives both you & me to distraction with his failure to live up to his potential.

I liked what I saw of the Wolski – Stastny – Jones line last game.

I’d really like to see:

Tucker – Duchene – Hejduk

Gotta agree with AUD’s comment below that I think O’Reilly could get Svatos going. But, that would give the team the third line of: McLeod – O’Reilly – Svatos and I don’t like the look of that, considering that those two line mates didn’t seem to work out with Duchene together.

But, when Galiardi comes back from injury, I would like a look of: Galiardi – O’Reilly – Svatos. I remember reading about some Galiardi – Svatos chemistry in the preseason and that hasn’t forgotten me.

by c0nquistad0rian on Nov 13, 2009 3:47 PM MST up reply actions  

Speaking of Galiardi...

from that same AD blog:

Tom Preissing also may make his season debut, but Sacco said he’s still deciding on that.
Galiardi also is well ahead of schedule, may even return next week. Liles did not practice.

Sounds like he may be back sooner rather than later.

I’m also interested to see if Preissing plays. Liles is eligible to come off of the IR. But I wonder if him not practicing is a sign that he may not be ready or if they are just taking extra precautions with him. With 7 healthy defensemen, there’s no need to rush him. But before Liles returns, the question becomes: Do you invest in the now or later? Do you get Preissing some playing time now to get him back upto the speed of the NHL game? Or do you keep investing in your prospect, Ryan WiIson, and get him as many games of NHL experience as he can get this season before he inevitably becomes the odd man out (barring trade) and is assigned back to the AHL once the other defensemen are healthy?

by c0nquistad0rian on Nov 13, 2009 3:53 PM MST up reply actions  

if Liles isn’t practicing, I doubt he plays

I want to see Preissing. Despite his down seasons, I was more excited about him than Quincey when I got over losing Smyth. That sounds crazy now, but I still remember all the hype around him from the CC/early Sharks days. Wilson’s gotten a good showing. It’s time to learn just how much value we got back from dumping Smyth’s contract. I feel like anything TP does now is icing on the cake after Quincey’s start.

Clark is OK on a bottom pairing, I guess,

but I would be very upset to see him take a slot from an Elliott, Shattenkirk, Wilson, etc. next year (or even this year, to be honest).

I believe that the best thing Clark can do for the Avs is to get us a pick/prospect or two come the trade deadline.

I really believe Clark will have some value to another team. He truly is fearless when it comes to blocking shots. He’s also done a lot better this year (altho still not great) both with clearing the puck and taking it into the offensive zone. There’s a team out there that needs him.

"ben guite" mustache

Unless there are lots of people looking for it, that was probably me. I had a moment of “what a weird coincidence” until I remembered I Googled that several times in the last month and kept landing on MHH pages. Let me explain.

I’m doing a thing called Movember, where you and a team of other guys grow a mustache for the month of November. Then people donate to your team, and the proceeds fund cancer research. Sort of like a walk team, but with mustaches.

Since I needed to grow a mustache for the first time, I tried to think of an awesome one to emulate. I came up with Ben Guite and Lemmy, and settled on the less-challenging Guite model. I have a ways to go, but it’s getting there.

Anyway, I finally sent out an email asking friends for donations last night and wanted a good pic of the Geet to include. During the search I ended up on his Final Grade post here several times, plus other pages mentioning him.

In case you want to check in on my progress, or even want to contribute to the pro-Guite mustache/anti-cancer cause, my page is here: http://us.movember.com/mospace/124865/ (Sorry for the plug)

So there you have it. I couldn’t resist telling the story behind that particular search term. As for “jim carrey beard,” well played, DDC.

Hi she it does,

I think I can safely speak for all of us here at MHH by saying...

Thanks Beachie!

I’m on here almost every day — I just don’t comment a lot. But I’m vowing right here right now to change that. I’ve spent spent too much of my life thinking about the Avs to keep lurking. And it’s what Guite would have wanted if we’d kept him around.

Thanks!

I’ll hop on the game thread tonight if I can find a web stream to watch.

Enjoy

I won’t be here. Game threads are almost unknown to me and I’ll be watching the game from home without internet access.

Yet, I’m still shocked and saddened that there is no searches for the Budaj facial hair.

I still haven’t seen a picture of that. He shaved it off though, right?

if he did, I would be heart broken.

Oh yeah, he shaved before the game we gave up 17 PPG to the Oilers. Theo aside, hair = winning.

Off topic...

I fed the trolls over at Dater’s place. Damn, I hate it when they sucker me into giving them my leftovers. Effing trolls.

well...

I did maul both of them pretty well. One suggested that I have no hockey knowledge. Pfffft! Everyone knows that hockey smarts are transmitted via osmosis and with the number of times I have cycled through the team…hell, I’m a damn encyclopedia!

And here I thought you were just there to look at the players in their uniforms…
