San Jose Sharks Mid-Season Playoff Test
FC Sharks Fan comments: “Two big games coming up with Calgary and Detroit. I think this would be a good test to see how resilient the Sharks have become. This should be treated like a playoff game. We took it on the chin by them and now let’s see how we bounce back. In 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 [...]
Were The Sharks That Bad or The Flames That Good?
Rob Blake said (the first period) was the worst hockey the team has ever played. Evgeni Nabokov said that for some reason, this team cannot seem to play a 60 minute game. Given how poorly the San Jose Sharks have played lately and taking into consideration how well the Calgary Flames CAN play [...]
Student Becomes The Teacher
An interesting nugget appeared in The San Francisco Chronicle today. If the San Jose Sharks get one point over the next three games, Todd McLellan will coach the Western Conference in the NHL All-Star Game on January 25. His assistant: Detroit Red Wings coach Mike Babcock.

San Jose Sharks Escape The Island
In response to my posting about the day-to-day musings of a Sharks fan, unrulytraveller suggested I could start focusing on certain players. He suggested Mike Grier who, coincidentally, is one of my favorite players. Based on the reaction from the crowd when Grier received the first star at last night’s New York Islanders [...]
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, [...]
Sharks Suffer Their Worst Loss of the Season
Sometimes a curse is a blessing. The thing that bothers me the most actually worked in my favor yesterday: the lack of hockey coverage meant I didn’t have to endure endless reports of just how badly the San Jose Sharks had been beaten by the Detroit Red Wings. The Sharks played awful, so [...]
A Holiday Gift To Sharks Fans
Just in time for the holidays Sharks fans will be treated to some very good opponents, the Detroit Red Wings (12/18), the New York Rangers (12/10) and the Vancouver Canucks (12/23). This stretch looks like the best test of the Sharks since the Sharks faced the Pittsburgh Penguins and the Red Wings at the [...]
Sharks Start Another Win Streak
Apparently the argument has been settled, it’s not rabbit season - it’s duck season. The San Jose Sharks started their latest win streak by beating the Anaheim Ducks 2-0 in a pretty mild effort by Sharks standards. I don’t know but it seems like the Sharks don’t look quite as sharp when [...]
