It feels like the Sharks haven't played in three weeks. I am not on my game. Dustin (aka Mr. K) is sidelined with the flu and may not be doing a game recap.
All in all, shit's hitting the fan. But at least it smells nicer than your grandmother's house*.
* Ill-advised joke, dude.
So what do you do when that extra cup of hard apple cider looks more appealing than your keyboard? Throw out a little table filled with numbers. Let them do the talking.
This is what the Sharks have done their first game after the 25th of December the last four years:
| Year | Opp. | Dec. | PP | PK | Shot Dif. | PIM |
| 07-08 | LAK | W, 3-2 | 0% | 60% | 0 | 24 |
| 06-07 | ANA | L, 3-4 | 16.6% | 100% | -9 | 13 |
| 05-06 | LAK | L, 3-4 | 40% | 66.6% | -5 | 23 |
| 03-04 | LAK | W, 5-0 | 25% | 100% | +1 | 29 |
Have fun with that useless information folks. Oh, and expect a lot of penalty minutes?
Prediction: Sharks win 4-3. Goals by Michalek (is he even playing), Roenick (he sure isn't), Mitchell (strike two) and Mark Bell (this post is pathetic).
Go Sharks.
