You are correct sir…

Unrelated:
I haven’t been paying attention to Colorado this season, but I was really rooting for the Caps to pick up Cody McLeod from the Avalanche when I’d seen him in action in his 1st two years. Not a particularly big point scorer but their #1 penalty guy. He did get 2 goals and a fighting major in a game against Detroit in October.

I’m gonna miss most of the game but I’ll DVR it and check it out later. I’ll probably catch the end with Sct112 after my team is done eviscerating his team; if he’s not too shamed to share a beer with me. Hopefully I’m not immediately enraged when I head down to Bailey’s after the game. Go Caps!

If I don’t stay up to watch it, no way do I DVR. It’s just bad karma for me. Besides, it’s going to be repeated tomorrow morning, I can record it then.

by Icebat on Dec 15, 2009 7:07 PM EST up reply actions  

In my mind, Erskine has zero trade value. But in any case, whatever trade value he has, it isn’t likely to change much with a few games. He’s a known commodity.

by sixsevenfiftysix on Dec 15, 2009 7:11 PM EST up reply actions  

They don’t get to see the great John Erskine a lot in the west, and he’s relatively cheap.
Maybe the light shines better on him out there. I hope that’s true for our defensive performance on this trip anyway :)

by DonCaps819 on Dec 15, 2009 6:38 PM EST reply actions  

I think tonight’s game may be one of the most important of the season so far, for whatever that’s worth. There’s the need to get back on track after an awful week, start the road trip off right, game 1 of the “Alzner’s here to stay” and “Nylander is gone” eras, and it’s against one of the top teams in the standings. December tilts don’t get much bigger than this.

Not to mention a major redemption attempt by Theo, who sorely needs to step it up, against a former team.

I came over to see what Varlamov’s time table is for his return and I get treated to MHBears wittiness.

Varly is traveling with the team and laced up his skates today. That doesn’t mean he’ll be playing anytime soon, but it does mean he gets to help pay for the rookie dinner.

Dude, unnecessary. No need for that. You know that people do the same thing with Ovechkin over on Pensburgh. Sometimes you just have to let it slide. Varlamov is on the trip so he presumably could be playing within the next couple games. This game has been good… for my fantasy team!

by Fehr and Balanced on Dec 15, 2009 7:48 PM EST up reply actions  

Point taken. I went a little too far with it. I apologize.

Also, to address a post above – I don’t care that Ovechkin has played like 10 less games than Crosby. The fact that they have the same number of goals is fine with me. I wouldn’t have believed you if you would’ve said before the season that they’d have the same number of goals after one game.

You getting the PIMs out of this game F&B? Or do you have Crosby?

Sure, but I don’t know how much it’s worth. The biggest (and simplest) pieces of advice I have are:

- Apply early. The government takes forever to go through job applications

- Preview listings for the types of jobs you might be interested in on USAJobs.com and see if there’s anything you can do in the meantime to make yourself a better application by looking at the ‘Qualifications and Evaluations’ tab and reading the questions if you can.

I would say for government entry level jobs (if that’s where you’re at) three months is fast, five-six is average, and nine is long.

Oh, also! Two more things.

- If you can, talk to someone in HR and ask what kinds of answers they want to KSA questions. I’ve heard ‘write everything you can’ and I’ve heard ‘be succinct’, so…

- Part of the reason the process takes so long is that applications generally go through OPM before they get to the agencies. If you find a job you want that’s hiring via the Federal Career Intern Program (FCIP), go for it. That gives agencies the authority to hire directly, so it’ll probably take longer and you’ll probably get people who are more qualified to evaluate your credentials.

I can also vouch for most of the above points. I have an MBA, and the experience of getting one has been invaluable in my job since then. It forces you to think, forces you to communicate effectively both verbally and in writing. Being a military officer for 8 years prior to grad school certainly helped my discipline and time management skills.

I can also say that getting a government gig now is a great route to go. I’m personally a defense contractor (better $$$ and easy for ex-military to get).

(I also remember Pittsburgh’s bad play during a period during December/January of last season where they fell into 10th place. And got hot after firing their coach and hiring Bylsma as coach.
