Sharks Gameday: Mess with Texas

With the Pacific Division clinched (get your self-congratulatory t-shirts now!), and a virtual guarantee of not falling below second place in the Western Conference, the San Jose Sharks' matchup today with the Dallas Stars shouldn't give us the heebie-jeebies, right?

Uhhh... right?

Lemme put it this way - when you, dedicated Sharks fan, find your blood pressure elevated over a game with an eleventh seed, there's something rotten in Denmark.

Sure, the Sharks actually managed to win their last game - in the crapshoot, I mean shootout.  We can bitch about how Rinne stood on his head all night for his Nashville Predators, but let's face the music = we're 4-4-1 in March, and it took that shootout victory to prevent us from falling to 3-4-2.  Had we not fought back to tie the game after the shorthanded giveaway, we'd be 3-5-1.

If that wasn't mediocre enough, try this on for size = the last time San Jose won by more than one goal was on February 21st - against Atlanta.

Star-divide

Since that time, the Sharks have lost a slew of players to injuries.  In fact, that Thrashers game potentially marked the last time this regular season that Teal Town will see Jeremy Roenick, Mike Grier, and Claude Lemieux on home ice.  Oddly enough, the last time all three would see action was the following week in Montreal - and we haven't seen them since.

Immediately after the 2-3 loss to the Habs, the Sharks were walloped by the Stars at the once-impregnable HP Pavilion, by the score of 4 to 1.  We may moan and groan about our injuries, but Dallas was without Brenden Morrow, Sergei Zubov, Brad Richards, and Toby Petersen - indisputably better players than our trio (we're not talking 1990s J.R. or Pepe here, folks). 

The injury bug has continued to bite both teams - the Stars were without posterboy Mike Modano as well as newcomer Steve Begin for their Wednesday loss to Calgary.  The Sharks are still without Tomas Plihal and Ryane Clowe, though Christian Ehrhoff has returned to the lineup. 

Here's a fact for ya = the Sharks have lost all three postseason series they have ever played against the Stars.  Last year's 4-2 series needs no introduction.

Why should the above fact matter?  Consult the standings, kind sir or madam - Dallas could very well be our first round opponent.

Sure I'm being pessimistic... so here's a pleasant fact for ya = the Dallas Stars have not won a game by more than one goal since February 19, save one - against the Sharks.

While you're savoring the half-empty cocktail that I've prepared for you, ponder this question = which Marty Turco will we see today?  The one we beat four times this season, and the one who is 6-8-1 in his last 15 starts, or the one we faced on March 3rd?

Better question = which Evgeni Nabokov will we see?  The one who blanked Anaheim on Sunday, or the one who gave up 3 goals in 9 shots on Tuesday?

Beyond the guarantee that we'll boo the word "star" in the national anthem, there's no telling what today will bring... and yet our future hinges on it. 

Rosy picture, ain't it?

GO SHARKS.

I won’t be around this afternoon. I’m on my way to work at 3 am your time left coasters and won’t be home until after the game starts. So it’s DVR for me today. I’ll see you all around for the game wrap.

After being in Texas all week

at every godawful, podunk place there is, my penance is coming back home and having to endure a game with the Stars……bleccchhh……We should just come out, put an ass whupping on Turco in the first period to where he gets pulled, and serve them notice that if they wanna make the playoffs they better finish in 6th or better cause we’ve had enough of these St.-Patricks-Day-Dressed Pukes, and if we see them in Round 1 it will be Golf Time In Dallas.

One-goal Games

Just think about it logically, like Drew Remenda obsessively repeats to calm himself down, blow out games are very rare in the playoffs. So the Sharks can use these one-goal wins and losses as practice for those games. I’m not worried, if Avery was all that was necessary for the Dallas Stars to fall apart, then no way in hell are they an actual team—they’re idiots on ice.

Let the end of the world begin with us!!

A little late

But the look on Seto’s face when he scored the goal was one of pure happiness. Yay for breaking the slump!

Good second half of the period. Staubitz is continuing his streak of good play; for him, drawing a penalty is like scoring five goals. And I hope that he lays a beat-down on Ott extremely similar to the one on Tootoo – that would make it almost impossible for me to dislike him. Almost (he still draws incredibly bad-timed penalties).

One request Fin fans

This is going to be hard.

I had this dream 2 weeks back. My Blues some how, some way make the playoffs and knock of Detroit AND the Blackhawks. It was epic. Now in order for that to happen you folks have to let Detroit win the conference.

Deal? I have good shit to trade for this request.

The second period

Made me very, very happy. The PK was great (Boyle + Lukowich = awesome), the entire second line (Setoguchi edition) now has a goal each, and the derisive Turco chant is rampant. Its really looking like the Sharks of October/November right now.

Oh, and when there was the small scuffle when Shelley got his cross-checking penalty, I noticed that Staubitz paired off with Ott. Oh hockey fight gods, if you are listening, please? Especially if Staubitz is in beat-down mode again.
