w/e. you had your chance. you ignored me. your loss

oh victory tastes so sweet

oh nice the tigers lost too!

and nick fairley will probably go the way of albert haynesworth only become a pariah much much faster

don't worry bud. the wangz will get a win. too bad they'll be down 3-0 by the time they do

the best part is i'll wake up tomorrow morning in the beautiful bay area and you'll still be in detroit

how i envy me

Cliffs of Game 1:

• There were some bad calls against the Wangzzz, but they missed some too like an obv interference against them that didn't get called woteva.
• Howard played really strong, almost stole one. I like that he got in Pavalski's face after the facewash ... all the great goaltenders play like they have a burr under their saddle.
• Played way too bad in the 2nd to expect to win
• Dats was the best player on the ice, but his turnover eventually lead to the GW goal
• I wish Babcock would work the officials like Bowman used to ... maybe then we wouldn't be getting out power-played 2:1 v the Sharks in their last 6 playoff games.

Or you can stop trying to cheat?

I'm just glad Pavalski didn't get hurt on that boarding by Bertuzzi. The way he went down like a sack of potatoes I was really worried for him.

i'm just glad pavelski got a penalty for stopping mid-sprint/taking a sucker punch/fighting back from a 4v1 gang attack. gotta keep that kinda **** in check. no place for that in the nhl

Say what you will about Holmstrom at least he has the sense not to commit a stupid retaliation penalty after he's drawn a power play by creating a scrum in front of the net.

AIOTT gonna be just like every other wangz bandwagoner

I'm disappointed in you

game 1 2011:

pp 6-2


game 1 2010:

PP 6-5 but once the game was 3-2 early in the second, 4 straight wings penalties, only sharks penalty was the delay of game they HAD to call

10:32 DET Jonathan Ericsson : Roughing - 2 min
18:57 DET Johan Franzen : Tripping - 2 min
19:53 DET Valtteri Filppula : Hi-sticking - 2 min
3rd Period
08:17 DET Niklas Kronwall : Hooking - 2 min
10:47 SJS Scott Nichol : Delaying Game-Puck over glass - 2 min

cant let the wings come back


game 2 2010

PP 10-4

wings up 3-2 going into the third, sharks get 4 PP in a row in the third, including a 5-3 PP goal on two garbage calls.


game 3 2010

PP 6-3


game4 2010

PP 6-6. no need to cheat when the wings are up 5 in the first


game 5 2010

PP 5-4




so when the wings are winning, its 4 PP in a row, all day everyday

the hipster doin some detective work. me like. league tryin to hold the wings down clearly.

gg

thought the wings were better in the 1st but sharks created more chances the rest of the game

i was pumped to have the puck finally dropped because i knew the bangwagoners would be forced to watch the best team in the national hockey league.

The sharks are just so deep that they can call a guy up and with confidence give him overtime minutes in the biggest game of the season.

i didnt really know who ferriero was before yesterday but im not at all suprised that when plugged in he can maintain the sharks organizational standard of excellence.

The Canucks were playing?

no doubt. canucks are solid, but their points are inflated, just like when washington was in the northworst, and like 6-7 years ago when the wings played

columbus
nashville
chicago
blues

8x each and all 4 teams were the garbage.

honestly, i dont think there is a whole lot between 1-8 in the west this year. gonna come down to goaltending and timely bounces.

since january fifteenth the sharks have the best record in the league. people forget that at one point they were 10th in the western conference. They just started #winning and havent stopped yet and as a direct consequence they are the best team in the national hockey league.

Fun game..Gonna be a good series

I can see the trolls are out early lol

This is truly a first class organization in which were all blessed to loosely affiliated. Its pretty reminiscent of the patriots at the begging of the decade when they were forming their dynasty. this organization from top to bottom is full of high character individuals making the right decisions. Former captain Doug Wilson is simply an architect of excellence whether hes pulling off great trades to land future hall of famers like jumbo joe or drafting superstars like Logan Couture. Were all really truly blessed to witness a top notch organization.

i know you haven't paid attention to the regular season since 1993 but teams only play 6 divisional games against each team now, so the canucks only have 8 extra games against their crappy division. how many points do you think that's worth? 3? 4? not many.

Lets not count our eggs before they hatch. Mmk.

Yea the Canucks are goot, and it still saddens me that Chicago didn't pull game 7 off.

Even if you're not that familiar with the Worcester roster (I'm not), Ferriero really shouldn't be a complete unknown.

this thread is pretty hilarious when read with stereo love autoplaying

scoring chances for game 1:

http://www.coppernblue.com/2011/4/30...chances-game-1

pretty amazing that not one person had over 20 minutes of ice time, shows both teams are relatively deep (obv the sharks more so).

???

9 Sharks where over 20 minutes with Murray and Vlasic also at 19:55 and 19:51 respectively. 6 Wangz were over 20 w/ Zetts at 19+

ahhhh right, knew it seemed a little odd. i was looking at just the even strength numbers.
