Sharks Gameday: When Stars Catch Fire

The Dallas Stars.

Oh how the mighty have fallen. Last in the division behind the Kings and Coyotes? It makes me all giddy inside.

[Editor's Note]: Remember your SPG Picks for a chance to win a Sharks Banner courtesy of Carrol's Cove.

Star-divide

But have the early season trials and tribulations subsided with the passing of one Sean Avery? Difficult to say. Marty Turco has continued to, well, stink like used car salesmen. But the Stars have been on a tear (shedding not a tear) during the month of December, going 7-3-1 while scoring 36 goals in that span.

Not too shabby.

The loss of Brenden Morrow (reportedly out for the season with a knee injury) is going to hurt them down the stretch, but if Turco can somehow get his numbers back to his career average during the last half of the year, I would not be surprised if they slide into a lower seed (6 or 7) by the time it's all through. This is one of those teams that could make a lot of people nervous in a seven game series, especially if Turco gets hot a la April/May of last season. The scariest thing about the whole situation? Morrow is a warrior, and although current prognosis says six months, don't rule out a return just yet. Flame me like Eklund, but that's one prediction that could make me out to be a prophet.

With the Sharks playing like the Wilson years lately (breaking records one night, throwing up stinkers the next), this game should be exciting. For the Stars, it will be an opportunity to prove to themselves that they still have what it takes to run with the big boys. For the Sharks, it's a chance to plug up some leaks that have impeded their current navigation of the regular season seas.

And remember that no matter the outcome, at least the Sharks website doesn't inundate you with shoddy advertisements:

That girl is totally sloppy sec..... er, hello Mr. Bettman

Prediction: Sharks win 5-4. Goals by Marleau (x2), Pavelski, Boyle and Goc. Mike Ribeiro is a corn-filled turd. That's less of a prediction, more of an observation.

 

Go Sharks.

Did anyone know that Seto isn’t playing today?? Is our first line going to be Joe-Cheech-Grier again?

Yep

His grandma passed away – he’ll be back on Wednesday.

Not sure about the line… that would be interesting.

According to DP over at WTC, these were the lines at practice yesterday, so it would make sense that they would be the same in the game:

Marleau-Thornton-Cheechoo
Michalek-Pavelski-Clowe
Plihal-Goc-Grier
Shelley-Cavanagh-McGinn

I’m pretty comfortable with Cheechoo on the top line, especially with the hot streak he’s been having. The second line has been reunited at last, the third line is solid, and it looks as though Cavanagh has taken over center from Shelley on the fourth line.

Yeah, I always struggle making notes – it’s easiest when someone scores. On TV, I have to really pay attention to the announcers as they list the opposing team’s lines, because I don’t have everyone’s #s memorized (a few – Modano and Morrow are easy, and I know most of Dallas’ by heart now), but St. Louis was just miserable.

Fear the Fin: Where I'm totally UNAPPRECIATED!

by TCY on Dec 29, 2008 3:24 PM PST up reply actions  

Pretty much your standard lame college app essay prompts. Like, “Why do you want to go to ______?” and “Tell us about your passion and how it relates to your personal growth” and, my favorite, “The short film Powers of Ten begins with an aerial shot of a couple picnicking in a Chicago park. The camera zooms out ten meters. It then zooms out again, but the degree of the zoom has increased by a power of ten; the camera is now 100 meters away. It continues to 1,000 meters, then 10,000, and so on, traveling through the solar system, the galaxy, and eventually to the edge of the known universe. Here the camera rests, allowing us to examine the vast nothingness of the universe, black void punctuated sparsely by galaxies so far away they appear as small stars. The narrator comments, "This emptiness is normal. The richness of our own neighborhood is the exception.” Then the camera reverses its journey, zooming in to the picnic, and – in negative powers of ten – to the man’s hand, the cells in his hand, the molecules of DNA within, their atoms, and then the nucleus both “so massive and so small” in the “vast inner space” of the atom. Zoom in and out on a person, place, event, or subject of interest. What becomes clear from far away that you can’t see up close? What intricate structures appear when you move closer? How is the big view related to the small, the emptiness to the richness?"

University of Chicago doesn’t joke around with its prompts.

I’m not set on my major yet – I’m kind of leaning towards either Communications, American History, or Political Science. Film/Media Studies is my back-up, since most colleges I’m applying to don’t have that as a major (at least, not for freshmen).

by mymclife on Dec 29, 2008 3:42 PM PST up reply actions  

Communication FTW!

In my opinion, it is one of the best liberal arts there is. And for the heat the liberal arts get, unless you plan on a very specific scientific based career, it is the best way to go. Career training comes in tech school, grad school, or professional training after undergrad. Learn how to learn and think and write and be well rounded in undergrad.

Then again, Communication is what I teach, so I’m biased. =P

whoops, refresh before posting

But in your case, even if you aren’t being “graded,” the advice in my response still applies. The fastest way to turn Colleges off these days is sloppy grammar. I’ve had juniors who write like sophomores in high school. Structure is one thing, and something that improves with experience. But grammar… good God it makes my brain hurt.

by schtimpy27 on Dec 29, 2008 3:44 PM PST up reply actions  

Don’t worry – I technically have three days left (apps are due on New Year’s Day), but my parents imposed an earlier deadline so they can go through and check to see if I missed any grammar or spelling errors.

And bad grammar annoys me like nothing else. I admit, I’m a bit too fond of run-on sentences, as well as starting sentences with “and” and “but,” but seeing basic grammar errors in professional publications makes me want to pull my hair out.

by mymclife on Dec 29, 2008 3:49 PM PST up reply actions  

As a recent college grad...

Grammar is key. Make sure you does good in your grammars.

And although I hate pimpin’ stuff, make sure you apply to Cal Poly. I absolutely loved it there (I was a triple major, Finance/Acct, Economics, and Statistics) and I would reccomend it to anyone.

Also… no essay required! It’s one of the top schools in the country… I picked it over USC, Stanford, UCLA, and Santa Clara. It’s cheap too.

Go Mustangs!

the semi-colon. Hated by some, but a useful piece of punctuation if used correctly. And the whole rule against starting sentences with “and” and “but” is stupid. I break it all he time. =) Hell, I broke it in my MA thesis. If used sparingly, it can be a nice stylistic change. But don’t break it in your essays, just to be on the safe side.

Is now not a good time to tell you that teachers can tell? The best advice I can give as a grader of said papers… read it at least once, out loud, before you hand it in.

By the end of the semester I was so tempted to just give automatic Fs to anything I read with uncapitalized proper nouns, stupid misspellings of homonyms, and any time I saw punctuation that came outside of a quotation mark (expect in the case of question marks and quotations followed by parenthetical citations)

Wow… how’s the knee? I messed mine up seriously 2 weeks ago while ice skating.

Oh, p.s. – there’s a new thread now.
