Don't have much to say for tonight other than a win would be just peachy. I would like to say more, but nothing's really coming to me. Everyone from the MSM, blogosphere, and fanbase threw the team under the bus after game four, and rightfully so. Truly a terrible performance.

Something tells me they have what it takes to ring off three in a row, but it's going to be a tall order. Call me a moron/homer, but I still have a modicum of faith there is an outside chance it will happen. Never say die until you're dead. I guess at that point you can't really say anything cause you've ceased to exist, but whatever. You get the point.

I'll be at the game, if you want to meet up let's settle on a location. Use this fanpost to coordinate.

 

Go Sharks.

Sharks can do it!

They certainly can do it

If they can win convincingly tonight, the fans will pour into the the sharks something they haven’t yet experienced this playoffs/last month of the regular season.

Pure, unadulterated, love. The reason why this team did so well in the regular season at home was because the support was always near deafening, and lifted those boys on the ices’ spirits. If the Sharks give fans a reason to cheer until their throats go dry, and then to dryly gurgle until blood erupts from our collective throats, I think that this club will take it to heart; enter the den of the avian nightmare in the land of no sellouts, and force a game 7. And if game 7 occurs, I will bow to the pure, evil, unbridled, power of stubhub and show up for that game, no matter HOW much it puts me into debt. (aka under the $350 it cost at TICKETMASTER)

Not holding high hopes

But if they can somehow turn on the fire-power, they could take three games in no problem. I’m not expecting it, but I’ll be there in force tomorrow. Come on guys, you’re better then this!

Here, here. Haven’t been around much since I don’t have to stream the games anymore… and there just hasn’t been much to say, but 3 wins in a row would be a huge surge for us heading into a matchup against the Hawks/Flames, sparking off 3 straight sweeps to close out the season.

last year we all believed they could win 4 in a row. Now they only need to win 3!

yea and they almost got there

because of the 4 overtimes in game 6, i like saying the sharks lost game 7 in overtime. they were 1 game away!!!

exactly

plus last year if they would have reached game 7, it would have been anyone’s game but the sharks would have had a ton of momentum. This time they only need to win 2 in a row to make game 7. Guess who won 2 games in a row in this series? Anahiem! So if they can do it, we can surely do it. If they win 2 and force that last game, anything could happen

coming back from a 3-0 or 3-1 hole

i believe that’s called red sox syndrom. it happens when a team goes through heartbreak for a period of time before surpassing the best team in the league. translation: if the sharks win blah blah blah, sharks = today’s red sox. now only if we had a clutch guy who weighs a lot on our first line. (joe thornton, please become that person) where ever will we find such a player? (joe thornton, please become that person) nope, can’t think of anyone (JOE THRONTON, PLEASE BECOME THAT PERSON!!!) GOOO SHARKS!!!

After the last performance,

I was definitely one of the people who threw the Sharks under the bus. However, that was based on that one (non)performance. We’ve seen all year that the Sharkies can string together multiple good games, especially after some bad ones. I’m hoping that they can string together a few convincing wins. We need to get this monkey off our back, address the elephant in the room, not give up til the fat lady sings, and any other cliches that you can come up with. As much as I was disheartened by Thursday’s lack of effort, I for one will still be on my couch at 9 PM Central Daylight Time, perhaps with an adult beverage, watching intently as our team shows the country why we are the number 1 team in the league.

Go Sharks

by Chicago Shark on Apr 25, 2009 10:22 AM PDT reply actions   0 recs

Exactly

Game 1 I can’t really comment on since I was stuck listening to radio while stuck in downtown LA, but from what I heard there was effort, but it was largely even except Hiller had some sort of puck-repelling force field. Game 2 they should have won, except for a few soft goals by Nabby and just horrible luck. Game 3 was pure domination with two horrible giveaways.

Game 4 was a disgrace, with all but three guys (Boyle, Roenick, and Mitchell) being completely indifferent to the game. It wasn’t that I thought the Sharks couldn’t win; it was that if they played like that, they didn’t deserve to win. It was like a slap in the face to all of those Sharks fans who stayed with them not only during the time when they were setting NHL records, but also through the slump, the horrible injury bug, that loss-filled eastern road trip, the month where they couldn’t win a shootout to save their lives, and the anemic offense period. All those Sharks fans who defended the team from the “playoff chokers” label, saying that this year was completely different.

I’m not writing this team off; they have come back from things like this before. And I’m not questioning if they have the heart to do so, because we’ve seen them battle back this year and win against all odds. The only question I have is if they bring their game tonight, with their best players being their best players and the other players raising their games as well. I’m not giving up on them yet, but tonight they have to prove to me that Game 4 was an anomaly.

NHL.com's game preview
SAN JOSE — A thick bank of clouds greeted the San Jose Sharks as they awoke Friday morning, glad to be back home to get ready for Game 5 of the Western Conference Quarterfinals.

But as far as omens go, the Sharks could have used something better than rising to a gray sky. All it did was serve as a reminder of their dreary performance in Game 4 Thursday night against the Anaheim Ducks that has put them in a hole they never imagined.

Anyone watching the Pens / Flyers game right now?

Flyers are playing great Game 6 hockey – 2 goals in less than a minute (or thereabouts). Knuble and Lupul – good times.

I normally hate the Flyers, but I’m pulling for a Game 7, because I see parallels between their series and our series. I also want Crosby out of the playoffs so Bettman has to resort to Marketing Schtick Plan B. Unfortunately, Plan B probably has something to do with the Red Wings or the Chicago Blackhawks.

Intermission report

Thought the game was on at 7:30, so missed the first 30 seconds.

The Sharks are definitely trying to redeem themselves from Game 4. Marleau won a race on an icing call, Thornton was actually skating (something I haven’t seen in a long, long time), and there have literally been a dozen chances where a few centimeters one way would mean the difference between being up by more than just one goal. Oh, and we saw the Bigfoot of playoff hockey – Joe Thornton scored a goal. Seriously, what?

Of course, we also saw probably the most frustrating and fairly common occurrence in hockey: Joe Thornton passing on a breakaway. Of course, the fact that he had the breakaway and was streaking towards the net was awesome compared to listlessly skating around, but still. Its a breakaway. You do not pass on breakaways. Even my mom, who calls periods “quarters” and thinks that Mitchell’s first name is Corey (despite me telling her many times that it is TORREY), knows that you do not pass on a breakaway.

A big round of applause to the Worcester Sharks

They beat the Hartford Wolf Pack 5-3 today for their first ever playoff series win. The Wolf Pack (Rangers farm team) was initially up 2-0 in the series, but then the WorSharks rallied and pulled off 4 straight wins, including a 6-0 shutout Game 4 with 5 goals scored in the third.

Next opponent is the Providence Bruins, the AHL affiliate of (who else?) the Boston Bruins.

How did Seto's goal go in?

It like, broke all the laws of physics. Which is awesome.

And during the second period, we saw the one time where we all thanked the hockey gods that Ehrhoff cannot shoot on net to save his life.

Oh, and I’m glad the refs are calling a consistent game. Because trying to dig for a puck and then getting cross-checked and put into a headlock is obviously goaltender interference, while diving on the goalie and laying on his legs certainly is not.

Then again, Perry has yet to be called for his Sharks goalie shenanigans yet this year – which includes cross-checking on the back of the legs, tackling, and stomping – so we really shouldn’t be surprised.

…And I have seen that the Ducks have scored twice. Well that blows.

Seriously?

Pavs has been everywhere this game. And Marleau’s initial shot created the rebound that Thornton scored on. And he beat the icing call and promptly got a great scoring chance. Vlasic I haven’t noticed, but isn’t that the hallmark of his game, that he plays so well that he isn’t noticed?

This has been a great game, with the exception of Nabby’s five hole and the linesman.

yea

nabby goes through spurts of giving up a lot of 5 hole goals and unfortunately he is on that bad side of the streak

I don't like you Detroit.

it was a part of some discussion a while back

it all has to do with where his stick is. it is a matter of discipline. when warren strelow was coaching him he was very disciplined and his stick was solid on the ice when he would drop to the butterfly. lately he has done a lazy drop and lifts the stick. little stalin makes brilliant saves and lazily drops and gives up a huge 5 hole.

wtf

was with the Raiders taking Ha(e)ward-Be(a)y and then a fifth round value safety who many teams thought were a free agent?

at least my Dolphins took care of the secondary by taking Vontae Davis and Sean Smith(a 1st round value) with two of our first three picks!
and with Pat White watch out for the wildcat this year, it’s going to ridiculously silly

Wooooooo!!!ooo!!!

Marleau with the game-winner. Playoff hockey is the bestest when your team and captain scores.

I have to admit

I watched that GWG at least 20 times. Easily. I love that 15 seconds back button on my remote.

Did anyone else feel like this entire game was one big middle finger from Marleau and Thornton to the entire hockey world? I mean, Thornton drawing two penalties and getting the first goal, Marleau with his afterburners and the GWG – it was like they wanted to prove the hockey world wrong.

And yes, this does somewhat redeem the team from Game 4. If I see this effort again (with less five-hole, please), I’ll just write Thursday’s game off as an anomaly. Because, in all honesty, they played great tonight. All four lines were rolling; the fourth line was just WOW in terms of “they’re getting all these scoring chances and yet this is a fourth line?” The second line was a rock in both zones, as usual. The third line was good defensively, which is their job. The first line was all over the ice, and came through when needed. Defense was great, and the goaltending was much better than games past with the exception of the first five minutes of the third (god damn the five hole, Scott Neidermayer, Correy-Freaking-Perry, and the linesman).

But anyways; WOOOOOOOO!!!! YEEEEESSSSSS!!!!!!

As to why it was so quiet tonight...

A lot of us were at the game – Plank, TCY, Lurker, CTGray, WorktheCycle, perkins.kit, ang6666, Morti, and yours truly. I decided to go last minute – I had tired of being pissed at the Sharks, and decided to see the BoC with my own eyes.

Not related, but does every Game 5 elimination game involving San Jose have to end with us winning in O.T.? Not that I mind the winning part, mind you… it’s just that my nerves are rather sensitive.

See you all Monday – GO SHARKS.

dunno about that

But so far the past two have ended with me losing my voice for positive reasons.

I love 209.

My only complaint

As Drew so aptly put it, the referees are calling the penalties based on the score, not the game

GO SHARKS!!!!!!!!!!!
