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 [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]

San Jose Sharks Lose Evgeni Nabakov Indefinitely

No sooner were we of the opinion that protecting players by not disclosing injuries was the responsible thing to do does Evgeni Nabokov go out with the every popular ‘lower body injury’.
After their come from behind, shootout victory against the St. Louis Blues, the San Jose Sharks are now facing uncertainty at the goalie [...]

Do The San Jose Sharks Play Better Defense With Boucher In Net?

So in two games so far this season Brian Boucher has put up some impressive numbers. Although he’s certainly a capable goalie I’m wondering if the Sharks play better defense with Boucher in net simply because he’s not their starter. Perhaps the Sharks take more chances with Evgeni Nabokov in net because [...]

No Defense But San Jose Sharks Still Beat Philadelphia Flyers - Again

I didn’t get to see last night’s game but I did catch the game replay on NHL Home Ice. I know Doug Wilson always envisioned a fast paced, uptempo Sharks oh-fence but geez…at what cost to the defense?! Let’s review:
2 Games
2 Overtime Periods
1 Shoot Out
22 Goals
2 Short Handed Goals (Jeff Carter (PHI) 1 [...]

Is It The Shoes?!

I was watching the Sharks games against the Ducks and Flyers and I saw something that caught my eye. Granted it was an odd-man rush, but when Evgeni Nabokov tried to kick save this one goal the puck went under his pad, under his calf for the score. This seemed to happen [...]
