The San Jose Sharks And The Curse Of The Overtime Loss
The San Jose Sharks have completed their first of two February road trips with mixed results. The game against the Boston Bruins pretty much lived up to expectations, both teams showed why they’re on top of the respective conferences with the Sharks coming out on top. The Sharks managed to finish the trip [...]
Bad Beat
The B’s loss to the New Jersey Devils last night reminds me of my bad beat at the poker table at Foxwoods Casino. I had Big Slick diamond suited. My first playable hand of the day. I was short stack and decided to go all in when the flop came up [...]
Bruins Concussed?
Quick-Who is the 3rd highest paid player on the Bruins roster? Most know Chara is 1st at 7.5 million and Marc Savard is 2nd at 5 million. Is it Kessel, Sturm, Ryder? No, it is Patrice Bergeron at 4.75 million against the cap. I hate to complain about a young player [...]
San Jose Sharks Quiet The Boston Bruins
They did it. After three disappointing losses the Sharks managed to rise to the occasion once again and beat the tough opponent. Let me say this – the Boston Bruins are a very good hockey club, it was great to be able to finally see them play. I don’t think they’re very [...]
San Jose Sharks Get Ready To Slog Through February
Dictionary.com defines ‘slog’ as a verb meaning ‘to walk or plod heavily; to toil’. The guys on NHL Home Ice describe the period between the All-Star Break and mid-March as the time where a lot of teams start to lose a little focus. If you’re a team that’s not very good, or a [...]
San Jose Sharks Karma + Leaving Work Early In February
If you believe in karma then maybe the San Jose Sharks have one in the bank. I talked about the “controversy” surrounding the Detroit Red Wings and the NHL’s unofficial sanctions against Nicklas Lidstrom and Pavel Datsyuk for missing the All Star Game. Both players had to sit out one game for ‘shunning’ the [...]
Just Another January Game For The San Jose Sharks
The guys on NHL Home ice were talking about the San Jose Sharks – Detroit Red Wings game and one guy emphatically stated “it doesn’t matter!” His argument was it is only January, it is just one game. He said the Boston Bruins, San Jose Sharks – good for them but until the [...]
Why The Cardinals Helped Me Feel Better About The Sharks
I feel a lot better now that the San Jose Sharks have bounced back, on the road no less, to put together back-to-back wins against the Edmonton Oilers and the Vancouver Canucks. I didn’t have a very good feeling going into the previous game against the Calgary Flames, something just told me it wasn’t [...]
Taking It Day By Day With The San Jose Sharks
When I started this blog I did some research on just what it takes to sustain such a project. One thing I read was that the average age of a successful blog was 30+ months. I also read that, despite many people’s passion, the early days of a blog will test their owner’s [...]
A Letter To An Editor
Dear Mr. Old Timer,
I really appreciate your dedication to writing for our blog. Because of your loyalty to your team I’ve actually managed to follow, with some interest, the progress of the Vancouver Canucks. I remember back when the season first started you had reserved enthusiasm around your expectations for this team. Specifically, [...]
