*** San Jose Sharks 2014 Off-Season Thread ***

Can't afford to lose these games. Let's go Sharks!

GOAL!

Right after a great penalty kill.

Good speed from Nieto, Sheppard with the goal, good goal from the lower line

Shoot out time.


With this at least 1 point we clinched a playoff spot.

I think it's better if we only play good teams

Stalock gave up his first SO goal... :/

we did what we needed to do.

Couture is banged up

blocked a shot in the ankle, didnt return, hopefully its just a contusion.

Garbage team another loss, if the playoffs let garbage teams in we would get swept.

I'm terrified to play the Oilers tomorrow especially on the 2nd game of a back to back

Couture is fine.

thank God!

Feels like the team has let 2 crucial points slip in the last 2 games. Scoring from the bottom 2 lines is a huge plus considering that's what did the team in vs LA last year. (Torres' suspension didn't help)

Update from Worcester:

Rookie defenseman Konrad Abeltshauser (6-5 225) has made major strides over the course of his rookie season in Worcester. He now is 2nd on the team in points per game among defensemen and 2nd on the team in plus-minus. In 49 games he has 5 goals, 15 assists with a +1 rating. Dylan Demelo has one more point, but has played in 7 more games.

As far as the top forwards, Daniil Tarasov continues to play well and leads the team in plus-mins (+5) and has 31 points (17 goals, 14 assists) in 43 games on the year. Travis Oleksuk has come on stronger late this season as well and has 28 points (14G, 14A) in 62 games with a -3 rating. Hamilton has a low plus-minus, but he's probably the best forward on the team and is on the ice all the time, which would explain the lower rating.

y the f**k cant we figure this goalie out

holy mole

we scored only took 79 shots on this guy

It seems like we're out of our funk with that goal.

Can't remember the last time we had a 2 goal lead
