Yeah my company Rite Dose use to manufacture products for Nephron but years back a few of our employees quit and stole a lot of our manufacturing secrets and sold them to Nephron in return for jobs with them. So it severed the relationship. I have friends who work for them it is owned by an evil with name Lou Kennedy....she married the billionaire who actually owned it. She has literally been so mad at one employee that she has a few times just came in and fired everyone one in the whole department. My buddy told me she recently came in and fired the whole microbiology department. My front office and management is nowhere like that. So use Rite Dose products not Nephron!!!! Cheers!

OccamsRazor Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 However at what point with JVR do you try something else, in 7 playoff games he has zero points....and the only stats he has picked up are minuses....so he is -2 in 7 games....let someone else have a turn.

In the NBA when a player hits 1100 games their play declines...I wonder if this is happening with Giroux? He might not be a top line guy anymore, that could be true. I don't think he should be absolved from criticism, I do think those who are questioning his effort and desire are high and would like for marijuana to be legal in my state too. I think there are 2 things contributing to much of this criticism; he makes a big salary that he signed when he was top 10/15 in the league. His compensation was commensurate with his performance. Also, there was that time he was day drinking and grabbed the cop's ass. That caused about 1/2 the fan base to turn on him because, he might be a "light running homosexual". Those are 2 things that have zero to do with what actually happens on the ice but shade everyone's opinion of him. I would like to posit this. It could very well be we are witness to his physical decline, he has not been effective nor dominant as he was as a younger man. The reason the team bounces back is because of leadership. Of which he plays a large role. There would have been zero reason to watch this team over the last 8 years were he not on it. They were objectively a bad team for much of the teens. Wasting his prime years on rebuilds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure maybe you missed my post on the previous page but he missed his son's first birthday party and i can't/won't speak anyone else but for myself and being a dad that has to be hard. So as i said i am going to back up off of Giroux and give him a break. I am just going to wish he keeps fighting with his teammates. They need him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because G knows if he ever does he will lose the fans in Philly..........right or wrong. Just the facts. However i truly am rooting for Giroux to keep up his work and maybe he will completely snap out of this. I don't mean to always beat on G, because until the past month I've always seen him in a positive way. Even if he's struggling without his family in the bubble, which is perfectly understandable, consider these stats: From the 2012-13 playoffs through yesterday (8 seasons) games played: 30 plus/minus: -9 (51st out of 51 players) goals: 3 ( 1g every 10 games ) assists: 12 ( 1a every 2.5 games ) hits: 32 ( 1 per game ) sog: 61 ( 2 per game ) ice time avg: 18:48/gm But let's compare that to his playoff performance from the start of his career through in 2005-06 through the 2011-12 playoffs (7 seasons) games played: 50 plus/minus: +13 ( 1st out of 60 players ) goals: 21 ( 1g every 2.4 games ) assists: 34 ( 1a every 1.4 games ) hits: 66 ( 1.3 per game ) sog: 113 ( 2.2 per game ) ice time avg: 19:55/gm I think it's a large enough sample size comparison to come to the conclusion that this may just be who Giroux is now. He'll throw a hit per game, score once every 10 games (which means he's due today) and tack on an assist every 2.5 games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He can win faceoffs, can skate still, and can make plays. I don't see a guy taking shifts off like you see with guys like JVR.
