If you've been out of the house lately, you know that the price of gas has dropped drastically.

In summation? Get your butt to the game tonight.

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

Star-divide

The last time Edmonton was in town, Dwayne Roloson pulled an "Ellis" and ended the Sharks 11 game winning streak, making 48 saves in the process. Tonight's streak stands at nine. Hopefully Edmonton only performs when the stakes are in the double digits.

Mr. K has some good information on the Oilers recent performance here. Jonathan Cheechoo and Brad Lukowich are out of the lineup tonight as well.

I won't be watching the game on TV (nor will I be in the game thread), so have at it folks.

Prediction: Sharks win 1-0. I put up another zero in the SPG predictions and decide to brawl with you guys like it's the late nineties.


Go Sharks.

This has nothing to do with the San Jose game...

But Chicago came back from a 2 goal deficit to make it 4-2, two minutes into the second against Detroit. Very nice… And the supposed 3rd goal by Detroit was WEIRD – it went in UNDERNEATH the net, and was ruled a no-goal. Check it out – you can watch it on Yahoo, HERE.

My post-game wrap should be up by midnight – I’ll be at the game. Leaving shortly.

Speaking of the price of oil

what are you guys in California paying for gas now?
I got regular unleaded for 1.42 a gallon a week ago at WalMart.

by Dave Valentine on Dec 6, 2008 5:16 PM PST reply actions  

In suburban San Jose...

$1.73 at the cheap place, $1.79 at Chevron

by Mr. K. on Dec 6, 2008 5:19 PM PST up reply actions  

San Jose

$1.89 is the cheapest I’ve found. $1.79 at Costco.

That's pretty good

when I left CA 4 years ago it was normal to have a 45-50 a gal difference. I haven’t filled up this week and have watched it drop 10-15 cents around town. So maybe it’ll be 1.25-1.30 on Monday

Sorry guys...

I won’t be in the thread tonight. Look for me and my girl right behind the attack twice net, to the right of the goalie. I’m in the teal Setoguchi jersey.

Drew says we are 8-1 when the other team scores 1st. And we totally dominated the 1st….I like are chances

by tiburonefan on Dec 6, 2008 7:45 PM PST up reply actions  

Liked the skating in that period,

our battle along the boards was fantastic, and getting pucks on net was good, total domination.

SHARKS!

bit late but was on the phone

by ang6666 on Dec 6, 2008 8:12 PM PST reply actions  

Question ...

Why do they delay a penalty?

by ang6666 on Dec 6, 2008 8:17 PM PST reply actions  

because

if the offense still has a scoring chance, wouldn’t you want to have it instead of having it blown dead before your shot?

by serrapadre716 on Dec 6, 2008 8:19 PM PST up reply actions  

I think thats why

dang wheres That’ll Cheech You and Mr. Plank when you need them

"Gotta suck for the other teams. You finally catch the Sharks on an off night and you still lose." -Shark Man

by idunno723 on Dec 6, 2008 8:20 PM PST up reply actions  

so depending on where the penalty occurred determines if the penalty is delayed or not?

by ang6666 on Dec 6, 2008 8:20 PM PST up reply actions  

if the sharks commit a penalty. then the play is blown dead once the sharks get posesion. if they already have the puck, then they blow it dead there.

by serrapadre716 on Dec 6, 2008 8:22 PM PST up reply actions  

i got this
A delayed penalty is one in which the a penalty is called but play is not yet stopped because the opposing team retains the puck

via Wikipedia

not the best definition though

by idunno723 on Dec 6, 2008 8:23 PM PST up reply actions  

thx both! that does make sense

by ang6666 on Dec 6, 2008 8:24 PM PST up reply actions  

imagine this

you have a wide open net, and the play is blown dead automatically because of a penalty

by serrapadre716 on Dec 6, 2008 8:20 PM PST up reply actions  

NO NO NO NO NO

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
