For a former defenseman, that was terrible awareness by Burns.

agree. Burns picked up the wrong guy. Should have picked up the goals scorer coming into zone

Thats why he isn't on defense anymore

Niemi having another game of brilliant and poor plays.
Sharks have good shifts and then just get lazy - and leads to goals like the last one.

They aren't lazy. They are just playing slow. Peeling back and going on the cycle instead of the rush.

Now in defense of the slow poke strategy. If the Sharks are going to do bone headed things like the last goal, they aren't as talented as they are hyped up to be and McLellan needs to tighten the ship up.

Yup. Way too many slow down plays.

It's a bit frustrating. But this is how the Avs play. Quick breaks.

We just need to keep shooting and stuff.

My biggest pet peeve with the team. They get the puck in a position to attack the net and almost everytine choose to peel back and try to make a beautiful cross ice pass. Just fire it on goal and win the ensuing scramble!

They've looked good for the most part tonight though

Shocked that wasn't Couture hitting the post.

 

[Fistfullofbeer]

Damn .. lucky break for the Avs.

 

[Coily]

I take it everyone is watching/at the 49ers.

 

[lobsters]

is it just me, or does hedican seems a little more insightful on the color commentary than remenda?

Nope Viking fan here. I'm avoiding all things NFL...lol.

 

[Fistfullofbeer]

Burnzie .. rocket!!

 

[McSkittlez]

Burnzie! Jumbo has been awesome tonight.

 

[Negatively Positive]

Burns makes up for defensive gaffe.

 

[Coily]

That's the reason he's not on defense....

 

[bluefunnel]

Burns!!!

 

[Mrs Ski]

Woooooooooot Burns!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[magic school bus]

Machinehead!

 

[DefaultSharkie6]

i'm watching 49ers and listening to this game

 

[Gene Parmesan]

Rocket shot.

 

[do0glas]

After that goal burns was a beast.

That's where his game is so vital to us. Those crazy shots are great, but he makes so much space.

 

[Alwalys]

Man. Jumbo is still teh aw3s0m3. Such a treat to watch him work.
