Around SBN: Has Kentucky Improved Since the Non-Conference Season?

Report Card Time!!! And the Bonuses of this team to last Year



After a good month in to the season I have been thinking about what has made us better than last years team. It seems like last year it was "Pick Your Poison" when defending the Sharks-(if you didn't defend Thornton then Marleau would score, if you didn't defend Pavs then Clowe would score). But that scenario only worked with the Top 6 and the 1st line D. With this team I think it is the same "Pick Your Poison", but with the whole freaking team is able to score and bite the other team in the butt. For example on the Carolina game- Huskins, Staubitz, Murray, and Vlasic scored and they are all not big goal scorers. Also I doubt anybody thought Ortmeyer would already put up3 goals by now. Another bonus with this years team is that we are younger. And last year the team was very old(Lemieux, Roenick, Grier, and Boucher). This year our rookies and young guns have been excellent! Ferriero, Demers, and Vesce have made a HUGE impact and many Worcester call-ups have produced a least a point so far. And one last plus I have seen, our bottom 6 are overall have been better than last year. The new bottom six seem to always bring 110%, energy, and have produced very well point wise.

I know with positives there are negatives like this year I think our D got worse and that having a rookie goalie being the back up is some what worrying, but I like this team a lot and it is definitively stacked right now. And to all the FTFers out their what is your grade for the Sharks. Mine is B+.

Over 4.0? Unpossible! What’s your real GPA?

AP classes can give you more credits, I think. I knew a bunch of kids who had like 4.2 and 4.5 GPAs back in the day.

Yeah, weighted I had something like a 4.18 GPA. Unweighted, it was 3.83.

Right, but it’s all bullshit feel-good stuff. Some schools give a +1 for honors classes and +2 for AP. My school gave nothing. An A in AP Calc was the same as an A in woodshop. I want to know his real GPA.

Incomplete? (If you’re one of those “I won’t look watch the team till the playoffs” kind of guy.)

The biggest problem — and thankfully, it didn’t appear last night — is whether or not they can keep bringing their game early and scoring first.
