Go Sharks indeed.
First game in well over a week I haven’t had to miss due to work or other engagements. It’s good to be here.

Don't worry
I hated studying to when I was young, but now I’m paying for classes and actually want to get good grades.

Some people just don’t operate that way. I never did “busy work” in my classes, but aced tests … just how my brain works. I don’t care for studying much — but I did when I felt it necessary for a given class.
yeah … he doesn’t need to study … just makes me feel good … :)

he’s going to SJSU … I wanted him to go to UC Santa Cruz … long story on why he isn’t … but ah well …
but I can relate to parents not paying – mine didn’t either, which is why I find it important to do so for my boys … :)

I hope to do the same
My parents made just enough that I couldn’t get in on financial aid easily, and not enough to pay for actual schoolin’. So, a few semesters of community college later, I found an entry-level job and managed to carve a career. lol … guess I shoulda studied :P
yeah … I went with community college, then transferred to CSU – Hayward to finish up (many moons ago) … financial aid, student loans and working is how I paid for my schooling

Isn’t UC Santa Cruz a Pass/No Pass only school? Don’t hear many good things about it, besides people migrating there for 4/20 /snark

not sure offhand … they had a program for marine biology which is what he’s studying

Yeah…In order to study Marine Biology effectively you kinda need to be at a coastal school, though some schools have marine biology facilities WAY away from the main campus on the coast. eg. UC Davis
CUIDADO: Estoy Borracho!
SJSU does … and he didn’t want to go to UC Davis, same reason as UC Santa Cruz … but whatever … :)

I don’t hate my parents for not paying for school. I’m glad they didn’t because it gives me more motivation to not waste my money or time at school.

Oh great
I’m watching the Sacramento Kings lose to San Antonio and now the Los Angeles Kings score against the Sharks.

"It ain't over till it's over." - Yogi Berra
I dont’ see how the first relates to the second in anyway. You might as well say:
I’m watching the Sacramento Kings lose to San Antonio and now the Los Angeles Kings score against the Sharks.
I breathe air.
Their both my favorite teams and they are losing. Now I need a beer to drown my sorrows away.
"It ain't over till it's over." - Yogi Berra
Again, you could say:
“they’re both my favorite teams and kicking ass. I need beer”
“They’re both my favorite teams and it’s hard to pick which one to watch. I need beer”
“It’s wednesday. I need beer.”
A beer takes some of teh sting out of watching your teams suck…breathing air does not.

He made two independent statements:
First, the state of the two teams he’s watching.
Second a universal truth regardless of circumstance.
“I’m in the middle of a job interview. I need a beer”
“I’m in Saudi Arabia. I need a beer”
CUIDADO: Estoy Borracho!
But there is a subtle difference.
When your favorite teams are losing (or something bad is happening), you NEED a beer.
When your favorite teams are winning (or something good is happening), you WANT a beer.
Difference :)

Yeah, they’ve got time to shake it off. I’m sure Heater just got the wind knocked out of him (or something else if Murray’s helmet was a little lower). Hopefully they’ll be ok.

It’s currently only 50F in LA, and 37F out where I am in Southern CA.

Lucky ducks. Our finals actually started today (since Monday and Tuesday were “study days,” or “hang out on Facebook days”), which is why they go into next week. I am not a fan.

Really? That’s goofy. We had a “dead” weak last week, which is usually the most busy week of the quarter. Then all finals this week, but some teachers use 3 midterms instead of a final. Its not a bad system, but quarters go fast.
Im Bill Romanowski, EAT MY STEROIDS OR ILL EAT YOUR F***ING BRAINS!!
Our dead week is sorta this week, although it’s more dead days than anything. Last week was the final week of classes, where you don’t do anything in class, but all the papers are due and so it’s basically a week of continuous all-nighters.
We’re on the semester system, so it’s a lot longer.

I actually think this has been one of his better game in the offensive zone. Moved pretty well, and wasn’t bad at holding the puck in.
All of our dmen haven’t been able to find shooting lanes to save their life as of late, which has hurt quite a bit.
He's not been bad, and he has helped when he's jumped in
It’s when he’s ON the point with the puck I’d like for him to wait.

I blame Nabby’s bad performance on the BoC Kings Gameday article. It’s clearly a curse. We should have had the win. 3 of the 5 goals, were on Nabby tonight. I’d say that only the goal by Manny was actually weak on Ersberg’s part. Whatever, I actually thought the defense was decent today. Extremely good game by Vlasic, he looked great in transition tonight. Boyle was a bit off too. We missed Murray in the 3rd.

We missed Murray in the 2nd, also the 3rd and OT

how old does it get? this game was a microcosm of the sharks i know and love.
incredible plays, bad luck, big hits and hard skating followed by sustained periods of coasting and awful passing and decision making, defense that opts to wave the stick in passing lanes rather than pressure and force mistakes,
and in the end, a fail.
me hopes this is another rough stretch for the so called best team in hockey, but come on sharks, do something different.

ahem:
so called best team in hockey

I don’t think anyone’s calling them the best team in hockey anymore…

It’s pretty much been all Chicago all the time since “the incident” a few weeks back.

honestly … I’m not going to stress too much bout this down period we are having right now … I would rather they go thru some issues now and get it over with vs as we are approaching the end of regular season and into the playoffs

I just fear they are staring their “end of season slump” super early this year. Since they look EXACTLY how they looked at the end of last season. Its very worrisome.

I don’t care if they are #1 in the league … or #1 in the Western Conf … what I want is them to what out any kinks they may have so that THIS year they can win the Cup … the #1 is just a feel good thing. it’s the bottom line that matters and the bottom line = winning the Cup.

Oh, for sure…I totally agree. I guess I’m just worried that this looks so similar to how they played last season. Luckily there is time to work it out, though.

If you guys Whave been reading my site...
When the Sharks lose…
IT SHOWS HOW THIS TEAM HAS ABSOLUTELY ZERO HEART. THEY ARE COMPLETELY EMOTIONLESS. THEY’RE A WHOLE BUNCH OF CHOKERS. THEY WILL NEVER WIN THE STANLEY CUP WITH THIS TEAM.
It seems to me that is how the media and non-Sharks fans view it.

I just got back the chair I threw out the window. A lost and the humiliation of neighbors getting to see me outside in my pjs.
Not sure if you're joking or not...
but is anyone else like me? You know the baseless optimism? Don’t get riled up after a loss?
I was at the game that never happened against the Blackhawks and I stayed the whole time. Even at the end of the game I was laughing and joking with my friend.
Am I okay?
I was at that hypothetical game too…and I went the distance. I almost got up and left after shortie number 3…but after that it was just comical.
I usually get angry after a loss for a few minutes, then I go on my way. The playoffs are a whole other story, though.

I was mad after the first shorty. I was incredulous after the second. I was laughing after the third. It was such a horrible game, it took on this surreal quality that you just could simply not believe that it was happening.

Same here
I stayed through the entire Chicago debacle as well. I ended up moving to sit next to my friend to mock the Sharks horrible play. And cheer the two goals, of course. That was fun, even if they were meaningless.

I cheered too
but not really mockingly. The best part of going to games is the goal scoring and that’s all i wanted to see. I was happy they got two!
Exactly
I only slightly mocked them, adding “you suck!” after the “HEY!” but that’s just leftover from my experience as a college football fan. I still jumped and cheered. I mean, hey, they scored! That’s not the easiest thing in the world.

Nabby gets hung out to dry
by his D on at least 3 (maybe 4) goals tonight…but everyone puts the loss on him. Hilarious. Nobody is saying shit about Pavs’ d-zone coverage on Kopitar’s goal or Murray failing to clear the screen on the first LA goal.
I guess it comes with the territory of being a goalie. Even if your team coughs up 3 times as many goals the goalie had no chance on, the one softy the goalie lets in is “the reason” they lost.
No no
I concur. The top 6 had goals tonight, but they were also completely uninterested in backchecking.
That’s worrisome
They're not getting this kind of coverage at "Hockey Night In Canada" folks! - Randy Hahn
No one claimed that those goals were weak.
But the other 3 were. If you let in 3 weak goals, you’re not doing your job. (Note that if you remove the weak goals from the Sharks, specifically, Malhotra’s goal, the Sharks win.)
On Pavelski, yes he should have had Kopitar. That opportunity was in transition though, and he may have simply been outskated by Kopitar. on the first goal, yeah, Nabby was screened, and the shot was great, no one was pinning that on him.
Yes, the top 6 forwards were mediocre today in their own zone, but the defense was good enough for a win. The loss was on Nabby. Heatley looked miserable in general. Pavelski wasn’t his usual defensive wizard in the d-zone and Marleau’s speed just seemed somewhat ineffective. I thought Thornton and Clowe were the best top 6 forwards by far tonight.
While we're throwing people under the bus
I’ll actually put a bit of tonight on Todd McLellan. If this team is about earning ice time, his returns suck worse than Lehman Brothers. The third and fourth lines should have seen ice time and the top lines should have been riding pine for some of their mistakes.
But meh, there’s more than enough blame to go around. I just feel like stirring the pot a bit.
They're not getting this kind of coverage at "Hockey Night In Canada" folks! - Randy Hahn
I can agree with that...
The first line really did not earn their ice time tonight, and yet they were still out there at crunch time. That’s why I was calling for the 3rd line to see some pp time tonight…maybe it could send a message…

Maybe if the Sharks are winning
But even with the top 6’s half-hearted play, they have a better chance of scoring goals than the bottom 6. You’re shooting yourself in the foot if you put out Malhotra-Nichol-Ortmeyer on a PP while behind. I personally wanted Vlasic out there more. He looked excellent today in all 3 zones and even had a big hit.
I consider Ryan Garner to be on the same level as Ray Ratto, Tim Kawakami, or Mark Purdy. So I’m a little concerned that he’s your hero.

Brilliant article
Except for the logical fallacies about sabotaging a key component to winning a cup in your diminishing window.
But otherwise, yes, I concur. Ryan Garner is my hero too.

This was me applauding your sarcasm, in case it wasn’t clear.

That really did provide a good laugh. I like how he doesn’t realize that putting Marleau on the top line is a better top line than with Seto. And how still having him in the top six is total demotion. Oh HockeyBuzz.

Devin Setoguchi
Is he even back from injury? Dude has been an utter non-factor. He’s reminding me of Cheechoo…who couldnt do shit unless he was on Jumbo’s line…
