GDT: 2013/14 Out of Town PLAYOFFS - Part 14

[Fossy21]

Quick

 

[Blitzkrug]

Sharks getting a power play.

This is it.

 

[EverettMike]

I really need a Sharks comeback to go 3-0 on my predictions tonight.

 

[Simoneau]

I think the Wild will get a game or two against Chicago. Who knows? We've seen crazier things.

Meanwhile, the heck is going on with the Sharks?

 

[Pie O My]

pull the goalie mclellan

 

[bruinsfan46]

Colorado's success this year doesn't look sustainable without major upgrades on the back end. Basically they had terrible defense all year and relied on superhuman goaltending from Varlamov all year to bail them out. Varlamov is good but I don't think he's superhuman good. They have exciting young forwards out the yin-yang though.

 

[JRull86]

Meanwhile, the heck is going on with the Sharks?

Nothing. Par for the course.

 

[Blitzkrug]

My bracket is borked. I had the Avs in 6 and i only got 2/4 right out East.

 

[David Krejci*]

get out! did you just make that up?

The quote? No I didn't make it up, google it.

Also, LMAO at everyone making excuses for Thornton. Yeah his numbers aren't bad in the playoffs, but anyone who actually watches knows he disappears when it really matters. Here are some numbers for you: 0-0-0 in the last 4 games. He doesn't have that extra gear needed when it comes down to it. LOSER.

And of course there's always the "it's a team game" people. So we're not allowed to criticize an individual's performance? Especially the captain, the leader, the face of the franchise?? Funny how nobody ever says "it's a team game" when pointing to someone's goal or point totals, or in MVP discussions.

I thought Colorado would win that series. Minnesota would be tolerable if they didn't have Cooke.

 

[BadBruins]

The beauty is they still have value, even after this.

Don't kid yourself. Half the league would be climbing over each other to get a chance to bring Jumbo and Marleau in.

No doubt. They signed those deals just a few months ago though. Both probably taking slight discounts to stay in San Jose. I doubt Doug Wilson will deal either player. Probably going to need a full house cleaning, which honestly wouldn't surprise me.

 

[Ozamataz Buckshank]

It would honestly be shocking if the Sharks didn't choke this series away. It's just what they do.

 

[Pie O My]

i was being serious. pull the damn goalie

 

[Blitzkrug]

Drew Doughty might just be the best all around d-man in the league.

So good in his own end AND can bring it on offense.

 

[Shaun]

never would have happened to the sharks if they drafted hamill instead of couture

 

[EverettMike]

Go back and read what I said about the San Jose power play after the second period.

Because I nailed it.

 

[Blitzkrug]

Niemi's out.

 

[Fossy21]

Colorado's success this year doesn't look sustainable without major upgrades on the back end. Basically they had terrible defense all year and relied on superhuman goaltending from Varlamov all year to bail them out. Varlamov is good but I don't think he's superhuman good. They have exciting young forwards out the yin-yang though.

Cooke also took out their best D-man. Conn Smythe.

 

[trenton1]

man that El Nino trade looking awesome for the Wild.

He'll be looking a little softer with a real defense closing in on him.

 

[Dellstrom]

Drew Doughty might just be the best all around d-man in the league.

So good in his own end AND can bring it on offense.

He's a little clutch, too.

 

[bruinsfan46]

I would not bet against a Chicago-Boston rematch at this point. Unless LA finds a way to score enough in a series against Chicago.

 

[BruinsFTW]

Nothing. Par for the course.

lmao yup.

shoulda had the goalie pulled on the PP...game was already over

 

[Blitzkrug]

Game over. Series over.

My god.

 

[Pie O My]

buh bye sharks

 

[Bridges31]

Choke choke choke
