If you read today's preview, we've already made the home sacrifice to hopefully get the win....however, it's not an appliance today.

[Tomdog]

If Boldy is out I hope they move Jost over to his spot and  put Bugstad to the 4th line where he will get the least amount of ice time. 

[Jimtown guy]

I’ll be out at our cabin getting it ready for the upcoming spring/summer so I’ll miss this one. Don't feel real confident about this one. Prove me wrong Wild. Canes 4 Wild 2

Just having to call a plumber these days, You might as well extract your own kidney to save a few bucks. 
Not an appliance issue here but having to go to Home Depot...On a weekend... for replacement lights and then having to blankly look at cabinet samples...
Then to get home and the damn lights are the bright white ones. 
I've made my sacrifice.
Wild win 4-3

Hope I am not wrong in my prediction. 3:2 Wild win in OT. Still I will be happy with one point too.

Upon initial inspection, it appears that the floor/ceiling joists are dry. I have a call into a plumber (went with a recommendation from a friend). 
 

Friday night, we had a former student who is a licensed electrician come in an replace four lights. Glad we gad someone in, because there was some questionable work done, like the lack of junction boxes. Former student discount ran us $100.

Not bad at all and also considering what was found.

I feel a tight game coming.  Goal tending may be the difference.  Big guns need to show up.....just my $.02

Unfortunately I think we’re looking at a new shower.
 

Currently, we have a single piece acrylic shower unit. There’s no chance getting a new single piece unit in without taking down walls, and that’s not in the budget. My cousin us a contractor in Rochester, and if he had the time, he said he’d lay down waterproofing, a shower tray, and then tile. He said not to use those shower kits that come in pieces, because you have a greater chance of future leaks. 
 

Sometimes home ownership is not worth it. 

[MNSOTA]

Also, if you’re looking for a cool light fixture and don’t want to spend a lot of money, I highly suggest this one from Ikea. If replaced a ceiling (that  had no lights) which was in our dining room.

4-3 Canes in OT

Did one like that for kid's house. Heavy on the waterproofing part. 
Those 1 piece units can be a disaster...You get what you pay for.

ND. 45 minutes from my house in Jamestown. Just bought it in September 

[MNSOTA]

So I guess we’re going to get hooked, tripped, and interfered with all night without calls.

Absolutely agree in terms of drafting goal scorers and 'stars.'  I have hope for Boldy and Rossi, however.
