San Jose Sharks Versus The Detroit Red Wings (And Beyond)
Ever since January 17, 2009, the date of the epic regular season game between the San Jose Sharks and Detroit Red Wings (as seen on NHL Network’s ‘Classic Games’ series), the Sharks have been unable to defend home ice against the Red Wings during the regular season. I’m painfully aware of this because I’ve [...]
Antti Niemi Will Defend The San Jose Sharks Until 2015
Wooooo hooooo! Okay first let me be honest, when Antti Niemi first started playing for the San Jose Sharks I was very disappointed. Not all of it was his fault - part of my opinion was formed over what happened to him during the summer. His dispute with the Chicago Blackhawks, and [...]
San Jose Sharks ‘Assault’ Continues
I was only kidding when I used the word ‘assault’ to describe the San Jose Sharks slump-ending win streak. In fact I was upset with myself because no sooner had I written that title that the Sharks lost two straight road games. But now the Sharks have won another 5 in a row [...]
San Jose Sharks: Nabokov Versus Niemi
A little while back the hosts of one of the programs on NHL Home Ice was introducing a guest. They mentioned that, dispite whatever his specific area of expertise was, he also had his own blog. As a quick note, they commented that unlike the hundreds of blogs written by people who don’t know what [...]
San Jose Sharks Resume Their Assault On The NHL
Okay I know it’s not really so dominating that you could call the San Jose Sharks’ recent point streak an ‘assault’, but it sounds good and feels good. Winning is fun! After a remarkably poor start, including dropping as low as 11th in the Western Conference and last in the Pacific Division, [...]
The San Jose Sharks Annual February Road Trip
If you ever go play for the National Football League’s Dallas Cowboys or Detroit Lions you know that one thing is for sure - you have to play on Thanksgiving Day. If you are a hockey player with the San Jose Sharks you know that every February you go on a two-week road trip. [...]
San Jose Sharks Enter The Final Turn
Fifty-six points. Eighth in the Western Conference. Sixteen points behind the West-leading Vancouver Canucks. Fourth in the Pacific Division. Nine points behind the Pacific leading Dallas Stars. Thirty-two games to go.
Such is the State of the San Jose Sharks. The team, which statistically is having it’s worst season in 6 [...]
Shuffling The Deck With The San Jose Sharks
The official statement from San Jose Sharks General Manager Doug Wilson was “We’ve been caught by the injury bug lately, so we needed some more bodies, some NHL experience on our forward lines…”. Okay. But when I heard of the acquisition of Ben Eager and Kyle Wellwood I immediately thought of one thing [...]
San Jose Sharks Redefine Insanity
What’s the definition of Insanity? Doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. This in a nut shell is what the Sharks have done during their 6 game losing streak. Sure, they have tweaked the lines because of injury, but still resort to their top players to make plays [...]
San Jose Sharks Making National Headlines
Just how bad is the situation with the San Jose Sharks? I listen to NHL Home Ice on XM Radio which is ‘pseudo’ national, meaning a lot of the programming comes out of the East Coast, Canada and from the NHL Network itself. Generally speaking - despite the ongoing argument - the coverage [...]
