Man. Hard to get into a posting rhythm when the Sharks have been off for six days. It feels like cranking up NHL 12 Dynasty Mode to Hardcore Superstar mode, advancing to the second round against the Canucks, and then not playing videogames for a week. When you come back it's a nightmare. Outlet passes skipping off the boards, manual line changes destroying your will to live, the Sedins putting more work into the cycle than a college kid's parents during Thanksgiving Break*. Rough times.
*Yup, that's a laundry joke.
The Sharks are the only team in the NHL to have played one game this season. Pretty sure Lemony Snicket wrote a series of books about that.
First things second-- according to David Pollak of Working The Corners, Martin Havlat will not be in the lineup tonight. He is still waiting to get clearance from his surgeon in Cleveland as to when he will be able to play. That process doesn't need to be done in person however. Although he traveled to Cleveland earlier this month to meet with the surgeon, he can receive clearance over the phone. With three games in four days upcoming for the Sharks there's no official word on whether or not Havlat will play. That sentence was sort of useless, but I wanted to include the fact that San Jose will be playing three games in four days somewhere in the post and that seemed like a good place to put it. If I could do it all over again I would probably use it somewhere else. Like in the fourth paragraph or something.
The Sharks will have three games in the next four days. Antti Niemi will be travelling with the team to Anaheim, but San Jose is carrying three goalies on the roster at this point in order to allow Niemi to fully recover from a surgical procedure that removed a cyst from his knee. McLellan told DP the decision would likely be made by the end of the team's plane trip yesterday, so look for official word on tonight's starter to come later in the day. With a back to back on hand for San Jose, I expect Niemi to see a maximum of one start this weekend if he plays at all. There's no need to push him this early in the season coming off surgery, and especially with Thomas Greiss playing so well.
The penalty kill will get a chance to get back on track tonight against a Ducks team that has historically been downright deadly with the man advantage-- the Sharks and the Ducks are the only teams who have finished in the top 5 in power play efficiency over the last three seasons. With players like Lubomir Visnovsky, Corey Perry, Ryan Getzlaf, Bobby Ryan, and Teemu Selanne running wild in the offensive zone, tonight will be a good test for a Sharks unit that gave up three power play tallies against Phoenix roughly 7,941 minutes ago.
In other news, I was pleasantly surprised to see NHL.com has included a 5v5 goals for/against ratio on their team statistics page. It's way too early to start using this of course, but by game 20 or so it will become a useful tool to employ when analyzing how well a team is performing.
Prediction: Sharks win 3-2. Goals by Pavelski, Mitchell, and Couture. Douglas Murray should grow a mustache.

Going to the game tonight in Anaheim with my Dad
Then we’re both heading back up to SJ tomorrow night for the Sharks/Blues game at the tank… Two Sharks games and a trip back to my native Bay Area? Done and done.

SHARKS!!!
I LOVE there are three games in the next four days, I can take a break from rooting for the Wild, Flyers (which has been fun cause I can boo Pronger on a weekly basis this year), laughing at the Jets and Neil Young, and get back to the real reason I watch hockey…
Oh and Fuck the Ducks!!!
God, the Jets are playing as bad as when they came over from the WHA.
Is it going to be a 20-win season or a 9-win season?
Honestly, those guys need to stop making dumb turnovers, and need some kind of star player. When your best players are Chicago’s 3rd liners, you have a serious problem. If things continue this way, expect a lots of Jets moved at the deadline for picks and veterans… And also expect Scheifele to head back to Barrie for the season.

Im guessing 17 wins.
I hear ya, Winnipegs fans are getting a real dose of why the team was abandoned in Atlanta in the first place. Im sure if they had any stars on the team, they couldve easily stayed the Thrashers. Wonder how many season ticket holders are thinking about selling their seats..
by sharkblood99 on Oct 14, 2011 8:32 AM PDT up reply actions
Eh, probably no one.
Toronto is still without a bona fide star. Kessel, Connolly and Phaneuf are better than anyone on the Jets, but still. Point is, Toronto doesn’t exactly have anyone huge, but they still continue to sell out. I think Winnipeg fans are going to be the same, but they need to accept a tough rebuild. They might finish at the bottom of their conference (fighting with Ottawa for the honour), but they’ll be in a similar position to Edmonton a few years back.

Toronto has about 20 times as much population in its general area than WPG...
But I digress…
look at how Saskatchewan is with the CFL… they sell out games on the reg, with a smaller population than Winnipeg, and are fucking NUTS for it in the same way Packers fans are. That’s what Winnipeg is now… they are the Green Bay Packers of hockey – and it’s going to be a success.
Nobody. And I mean NOBODY is about to sell their ticket… in face, I bet 99.9% of them are ready and willing to renew at the end of the year.
Yeah, there’s some growing pains with the team… but they have some solid pieces in Ladd and Byfuglien… not to mention one of the youngest teams out there… I don’t expect anything out of them this year, but give this team 2-3 years and they’re going to be scary as shit, I feel. having a new organization that knows how to run a farm team will also help HEAPS… having the Chicago Wolves out of the picture will surely help in development.

St. John's Ice Caps FTW.
Also, I love when Roughriders play @Toronto… Their fans are some of the most flamboyant I’ve ever seen, and they’re an absolute joy to have on the subway/buses. They’re decked out in green (wearing ridiculous costumes), and they’re loud as hell. Makes the snots here give wary glances. I love it.

So glad that there were some good games on last night to get me through the last day before S.J plays. Vancouver got their asses handed to them, Minny won, great knock out during the Wash/Pitt game and now The Sharks!!! Finally!
DiPietro got a concussion after a Rolston slapshot.

Speaking of soft
L.A’s defense in their OT lose looked pretty soft to me last night. With or without Doughty, their offense should be respected but their D looks like an easy push over.
I’m not entertained by a guy bleeding on the ice with a concussion, and another guy gloating over that doesn’t really help.

I've always
been a boxing fan so being able to watch something like that with no gloves on is a plus. You don’t have to fight in Hockey, it’s a choice. And Beagle obviously made the wrong one. You can’t ask a guy to pull his punches. All you can ask is that Beagle think twice before fighting a guy like Asham.
Nothing about what you said
Makes watching a guy gloat over giving someone else a concussion in a sport that’s coming to terms with the long term effects of head injuries seem more palatable.

I can understand
how some people might not like that aspect of the game. It’s hard to like everything in any given sport I think. I hate diving in Soccer but I have to live with it but some people like it (fucking f@$#@!s) and I hate all the flags in any given football game but what are you gonna do. Fighting or people getting knocked out isn’t for everybody.

His career lives and dies with his fighting. If the taunts get cheers from the fans, he’s doing what he can to earn his paycheque.

You missed my point.
Fighting is done for three reasons, really. The passion of the moment, to rally your bench, and to entertain the crowd. The gloating was for the last one. The gloat itself may have been excessive, but it succeeded is getting the crowd up. I’d say that’s part of his job.

Being a fan of fighting in hockey is, to me, like being a fan of high-sticking. It’s part of the game, but not in a good way, and it results in penalties. The fact that it’s considered sacred is bizarre to me.
And before you start with the wuss nonsense, hitting and checking are intrinsic parts of the game, and I love them. Extracurricular fighting is irrelevant to actual game.
If you like fighting, watch fighting. MMA is popular, I hear.

I AM a fan of fighting
But only insomuch as it helps move the game along. Scripted fights, and fights for the sake of fighting, /yawn. Get back to the game already!

So what
if a player knocks a guy out like pronger (what if) or Perry or any other hated player that some might think deserve it for the games sake in moving it along.
Knocking a guy out cold
Can happen for a variety of reasons. If it’s a clean hit, or a good consensual fight, so be it, part of the game. As long as everyone is acting in good faith and not out to injure people. Injuries might happen.
What I’m NOT a fan of is Matt Cooke like hits that are either reckless or malicious. Same when it comes to fighting.
Think of the hit Wizneiwski put on Seabrook last season. Seabrook is a big time player for the Hawks, and so you need to take the opportunity to finish your checks. But Wiz took a run at him while he was vulnerable, and laid a completely reckless and dirty hit. I don’t mind him going after a guy and finishing his checks, but the hit itself was reckless, and has no place in the game.
On a more local example, Thornton on Perron. I love Joe wanting to make the hit, but the actual mechanics of how he hit him I’m not a fan of.
Fighting and hitting, IN GENERAL, I’m okay with. It gets into the hows and the whys as to whether I think it’s appropriate.

Sorry
blindsiding someone or giving a reckless hit has nothing to do with a one on one fight. If any of them would have gloated after a reckless hit then hell yeah, fuck them for being such assholes but a clean punch in a clean fight… I just see a big difference. I do know Asham pissed a lot of people off but I think he stepped on the line, didn’t cross it. The line is different for everyone. If there is any qestion about a code or the code on fighting, maybe the NHL should have an open debate on fighting.
Not saying hitting is completely the same as fighting
But when it comes to players like Pronger and the like, they’re literally too important to fight. So if the likes of an Aaron Asham wanted to fight someone like Perry, Perry might be willing, but it would be a completely unfair trade. a guy like Asham targeting a guy like Perry might be his job, but it’s pretty dumb overall. It’s great strategy, but as a neutral observer, you’d rather see Corey Perry playing (as long as you’re comfortable having no soul). If you’re rooting against the Ducks though, you absolutely want Asham going after a guy like Perry.

@shampeon
Then why doesn't the NHL
ban fighting? Or say you can’t look up to the crowd, smile or gloat after any fight.
This is
exactly how I saw it Evil Stanchion. Asshole move maybe but it got the job done. I wouldn’t have liked it if he would have done that to a Shark or would have skated back to Beagle to laugh or taunt him while he was down. He won, he celebrated and moved on, that was it. He didn’t stand for praise or turn and gloat. Probably for selfish reasons but he got the crowd even more into the game.
As a guy
I would find it hard to not at least smile after knocking someone out. It’s in the moment, you throw one good punch and the guy goes down. I’m sorry but some times punching someone in the face feels good and you add cheers behind that, then I understand Asham’s reaction. Now if the guy had to go to the hospital or the guy didn’t want to fight and Asham knocked him out anyway, I would think Asham would have to apologize or not have done that. But it’s like he said, it was in the moment.
But it’s like he said, it was in the moment.
If we’re going off of what he said, it was uncalled for and classless.
Leslie Knope: "...but it has a lot of heart."
April Ludgate: "That's what people always say when something sucks."

I hear the phrase "in the moment" come up a lot
It’s usually said to justify assholish behavior. Hell, a lot of the rioters were probably “caught up in the moment.” That Asham got caught up “in the moment” doesn’t make it less assholish. If you put a guy down on the matt in Boxing or MMA, that’s one thing. That’s the entire POINT.
In the NHL, you put a guy down on the ice bleeding, chances are, something has gone wrong, even if he willingly dropped the gloves.

The fight
was between two people who agreed to fight. Nothing to do with an in the moment decision for someone to riot. He only said classless and uncalled for because he had to. To not piss anyone off more then they were. He probably is an asshole. But if you willingly drop the gloves how did anything go wrong if Beagle got caught with a clean punch?? He didn’t trip and fall on a skate with Asham gloating about it. Asham knocked him out fair and square, no different then a boxing or MMA fight.
He only said classless and uncalled for because he had to.
Can you prove that, or even just provide an example of another NHL player saying something like that?

Fighting
is a big part of his game. He was obviously happy after the fight. I also wrote on one of these comments that maybe he did feel bad about it after finding out how hurt Beagle was….? He said classless and uncalled for so many times but at the same time stating that it had nothing to do with Beagle and only the fight that it felt scripted to me. That’s all.
I'm saying this
because this fight like most others seemed to be like most others, an agreement to see who can hurt who the most and or win/come out on top. I would be embarrassed if I were Beagle but at the same time I wouldn’t be mad at Asham. He knocked me out fair and square.
The judgements aren't about the fight though
They’re about the taunt. You step up, you might get knocked out, that’s the life of a guy chosing to drop the gloves in the NHL. But taunting has rarely been approved of. Guys like Tie Domi and Donald Brashear don’t get a lot of love because their fights are perceived to be selfish, and their attitudes about it don’t help.
The reason the fighter is revered by many is that, if you fight, you’re doing it FOR your team. And taunting a guy while he’s down doesn’t fit with that mentality of sacrificing for the team.
I buy into that old Western Canadian attitude towards fighting and sacrifice in hockey, and gloating over a bleeding, concussed opponent just doesn’t fit in with that.
Stepping up to the plate, even if you might get dropped, that certainly does. Winning your fight, that definitely does. No issue with the fight. But it’s all about attitude.

And it's not like taunting has NO place in the game
Think Patrick Kane’s heartbreaker punch when he scored that SH goal against the Canucks. That’s a celebration of a big moment that has some meaning to the game, not like a staged celebration like Ovechkin’s hot stick dance when he reached an individual milestone.
If you do something meaningful, by all means, talk a little smack. But knocking out a guy and possibly injuring him in what is basically a sideshow to the real deal, meh. That’s like football players dancing after every tackle. You did your job son, you really gonna preen for the camera about it?

You don't see things like that from the real fighters
George Parros, for example, would never pull that crap. He’d stick tap the guy on the pads and make sure he was ok. Fighting is fine, knocking players out is an accepted side effect of this sometimes. Gloating over it as you are skating away from someone left bleeding on the ice is classless. Completely goes against the Code.

I hate
certain athlete’s that gloat. To me it all depends. Some people love it, most I think hate it, I’m stuck on the it depends. Mayweather for instance. I really hope someone hits him with a truck one day. Everyone is different just like Parros. He’s probably a nice guy underneath that damn mustache and doesn’t like really hurting people. I respect him for that. All I can say is that when it comes to celebrating or gloating, it all depends. And people make mistakes, so Asham might feel bad and not do something like that again? If he does, I’ll go right back to seeing the how and why and personally decide then. I don’t think I’m the only one that feels this way. We’ve all got our opinion. Anyway, Hockey is about to start and I need to get some shit done before I watch it uniterupted. Fist Pump for knock outs bitches!!
I understand
Everything happend so fast I didn’t see Asham turn to see if anyone was bleeding and I doubt concussion ran through his head right after. Maybe he did feel bad after the fact. Looked back and though, “aw man I shouldn’t have done that”. If that’s the case then good for him. But gloating or what is o.k with how to act after a fight is up for debate. I definitely think there’s a line but I don’t think Asham crossed it on this one. If say he would have went up to Beagle and laughed or pointed at him while he was down then yeah, I’d say he crossed the line. But doing something for the crowd and himself after being pumped up…. I don’t think he does. I put myself in his shoes. If I got in a hockey fight I wouldn’t do anything other then maybe fist pump and give a scream if I was really pumped up (feeling bad about it after if the guy got a concussion) but I wouldn’t waste time apologizing to fans, I would try to track Beagle down or give him a call and apologize. To me Asham didn’t cross the line.
And yet
You think Dustin Byfuglin doesn’t belong in the NHL…

That's because Byfuglien is a douche.
When he’s on the ice, he plays for himself. When he should be defending, he’s up on the play fr no reason, or clustered in the wrong corner. Plus he whines to the refs as much as Carcillo.
Fighting is a different beast entirely.

Or just limit drinks? Bring only enough cash for a set amount, leave the CCs behind, etc. I’ll never understand people that get so shitfaced that they pass out. How can you have fun if you pass out, and what is the point if you drink so much that you forget what happened the next day?
I didn't forget
I just got sleepy…..it doesn’t take a lot for me to get sleepy.
Plus I thought I was going to the SDSU football game…so I was kind of tailgating, but then I ended up just sitting on the couch watching the game. I was laying down watching and had a blanky and it just looked like the perfect place to take a nap.

Yea, the scheduling was really messed up. Sharks are the only team to only have 1 game played, and that is only because yesterday had Edmonton and Winnipeg playing, both of whom had their openers at home and both on last Sunday. They easily could have slotted San Jose to visit either team and play on Tuesday without yielding a back to back for the game they played yesterday nor have conflicts with today’s game.
Though on the flip side, the large break has given me some time to savor and appreciate the Canucks going 1-2-1, and though i coulda swore there was an official diving penalty call in one of the games I couldnt find any in the official reports.
Cyst in the knee though, finally the location is revealed. I hope TMac keeps Niemi out another week. Knee pain is something that can easily get worse as well as cause subconcious hesitation. Not a good thing for a goalie whose style revolves around his mobility on his pads.
I was surprised
they played straight up against Detroit. I wasn’t used to watching them lose without at least being on the power play once in the last 4 min of a game when they’re down?
Going to the Game Tonight
This will be my first time going to the pond… And my first time watching the Sharks play the ducks. Also, since I’m used to seeing the Sharks play at jobing.com arena when I lived in phx, this will be my first SOLD OUT hockey game where I’m rooting for the road team… Good to see that it looks like more than a few Sharks fans will be there!
Also, Plank firing on all cylinders after the 6 day layoff, respect.
Woo! Sharks Game!
Talk about the worst case of blue balls ever. Stupid NHL…“oh, here’s some Sharks hockey….ah ah ah, no, let’s actually wait until we’re both comfortable.” How unsatisfying. Looks like we’ll get our hockey fix over the next 4 days, though (finally).

That's why
in the past I would draft as many Sharks for my fantasy team as possible.
Last year I had Marleau, Heatley, Pavelski, and Couture.
It’s pretty awesome when you can get a G, A, A, 3 PPP, and potentially even a GWG all off the same play.
The guy I was playing against in the finals also had like 5 Ducks on his team (including Perry) so winning against him made it even more awesome.

Anaheim has a lot of big names, but our stout new blueline should be able to stem the tide. It’s on nights like these that you really want to see the team give its all. They’re going to have to fight to get every bounce. After all, this is hockey, and your opponent isn’t likely to want to snuggle. It’s games like these that really test your resolve. You have everything to lose, and everything to gain. Today, we continue this new era of Sharks hockey.

them going at the Ducks just like they did at home against PHX. Tmac has been on them since throughout training camp. The team is probably just dying to get out on the ice to lay some hurt on anyone and score some goals. Especially against the bitch ass ducks. Can’t Wait!

Basically, a piston is connecting to each of those segments. As the shaft rotates, it forces the pistons in and out of their chambers. It moves incredibly fast, so the frequent compressions and decompressions cause a series of small explosions that ignite the fuel and cause the vehicle to move.

Shar-ku
Three-bie this week with the long break.
After five long, dark months
the Sharks feasted in Victory.
The blood lust grew strong.
Then they were held back
for six endless days, starving.
Forbidden to feed.
But tonight, they’ll hear
Quack quack- DUCKS SUCK! at long last.
The Frenzy begins…
The real terror of beholding sharks feeding is that that may be all there is to life.
Are you a shark, or a sheep? Sharks are winners and they don't look back, cuz they don't have necks. Necks are for sheep.

Ugh.
The first line should be “For five long, dark months” and the second should be “the Sharks feast in Victory”
Long fucking Friday. Just give me hockey.

Does anyone know anything about hooking up TV to computers?
I was all psyched today because I got the appropriate cables and adapters to hook up my laptop to my TV so I could watch the game on a big screen in front of my couch tonight instead of huddling in front of my desk and I hooked everything up like I was supposed to and I can’t get my computer to recognize my TV…

I’ve during everything off, disconnected everything, reconnected everything, made sure all the connections are tight, and turned on the TV and then turned on the computer and still nothing.

Make sure you’ve got the right dealie plugged into the right whatsits on both the tv and the ’puter. Our tv has like 7 or 8 different doohickies on it.
And for ours I know there’s some specific order to it.
Plug the cable in then turn on computer…. then tv… or the other way around…
I dunno but there’s usually some cussing involved cuz something wasn’t done in the right order.

If your computer's resolution is higher than that of the TV
No joy. I had the same issue when setting up my mini to go to my TV.
If you’re going to use the 1280 X 800, make sure your TV’s resolution is compatible. You may have to change that in one of the internal settings.

My understanding was that the computer does that automatically, or at least it will tell me what to change it to.
When I open up my display settings I see nothing and it won’t even detect that I’m hooked up to the TV.
I may need a different adapter. It hooks up alright, but I got the wrong one initially and just went out to Radio Shack to find another one to hook it up tonight. I should probably return everything and just get a mini-DVI to HDMI.
Right now I have a mini-DVI to DVI then a DVI cable then a DVI to VGA adapter hooked into my TV.

I’ve noticed that the display doesn’t always automatically adjust.
As for the daisy chain of adapters, who knows, that may be the issue.
Does your TV not have a DVI input? Most newer ones do I thought.

Also
From Mini-DVI, you should be able to get away with just one converter. Apple has display converters that go to just about everything, but you may need to get them online. The Apple stores out here have most of them in stock, so if there’s one close to you, they may have what you need.

I thought it did
but then once I started hooking it up I realized it was a VGA.
I should have just gone for the HDMI adapter but I was worried since this is an old laptop (just a plain Macbook – no pro) it might not work right.
I should just bite the bullet and buy a new computer. Although if I do I’ll probably get a desktop so I’ll need a helluva longer cable…

I primarily use the mac mini to go to the TV
But I’ve done it with the laptop as well, no issues.
I use the mini-DVI to DVI adapter, and then they stock a 6’ cable from Belkin whic does DVI to HDMI. You’ll need the seperate audio cable still, but otherwise, it’s gravy.
If you don’t want to upgrade your laptop, I’d suggest the mini, or some other media PC. I got mine used of craigslist for about $600. So I imagine you could get some PC equivalent that has wireless for $300-$400. Or you could do a netbook I suppose. I was in the same boat as you, didn’t want to drop the money on a new laptop, and just needed a machine to do netflix/hulu/other streams to the TV.

Audio isn’t the issue, I got the audio working fine on the TV, just no video.
And it’s not really the price of the laptop that’s the issue, I just don’t really need a laptop. I never use it for notes, I don’t take it with me, except to my office, but if I got a new computer I could just leave the old one at the office.
The only reason I ever got a laptop was because I was going to college and then I never used it like a laptop. It did make moving easier, but I’ve always been more of a desktop man.

Any suggestions on a desktop build? I’m looking at building my own. Needs to run Guild Wars 2 and never be a laggy bastard.
