Pre-Game Talk: Bring on the canucks! (schedule added post#1)

[murdock1116]

Hopefully our fans do their part in this series too. I think one of the biggest reasons why we lost last time around (aside from Pavs getting destroyed by the Torres line) is that our building did a bad job being the "6th" man.

It was REALLY loud in the Vancouver building and our players got dear in headlights from it.

Our fans were too soft!

Warriors fans are doing a great job for them right now.

I will donate my foot to Demers if it means he can play.

 

[sharks fan 209]

Man am I excited for some playoff hockey! Lets go sharks! Sharks in 6.

That's because Warriors fans aren't spoiled. The fans get worse each year - until the Sharks make the SC final, it won't be Vancouver good.

I wish even half of those fans at Oracle will at least be watching Sharks playoffs (if not trying to go to HP for the home games), but I doubt it.

We REALLY need this kind of atmosphere at HP. The fans are TROLLING the Nuggets right now! And its having an effect.

If the Sharks come in 1-1 or up 2-0, I think it will have a similar atmosphere. Down 0-2? Not so much.

You're probably right, but that's what I'm saying when I think our fans let the team down in the last series.

Agreed. I'm hoping that now even the "HP" fanbase realizes this isn't a SC favorite team anymore and needs that crowd we had back in the 90's/early 00's.

There's only so much you can do against the blues before fatigue sets in.

I think HP will be loud. Vancouver makes for exciting games and the rival fans should help get things going. Maybe. I will be yelling.

Erhoff plays D... talking about 3rd line only. Yeah Hodgson was one of them. I think he was the one who really did the damage against pavs.

They let go of Torres, the best of the three. They still have Lapi and Hansen. Hodgson was on the 4th line IIRC. I know he wasn't on the third line.

Ehrhoff was really important to that team, more so than most realize.

So much for people saying that Canucks/Sharks will definitely be on CBC, even for one game.

I'm really surprised that CBC has the Blackhawks/Wild and Blues/Kings series (plural). I thought they'd take the Canadian team from the Western Conference.

I don't think any experienced coach desires be an assistant; he's just saying that not to step on McLellan's toes. IMO, at least.

IMHO Robinson would retire rather than take over the reins as a head coach. He will NEVER be a head coach again (maybe if you twist his arm he'll be a 1-2 game interim).

 

[yoss]

The first chance he gets, Torres should charge that POS stanchion and take it out for the rest of the series.

How dare you wish injury upon Stanchion!!

Besides, he only has 1 assist this year through the entire regular season.

He's a POS player. He has a terrible Corsi too.

Just goes to show how much the major networks (NBC and CBC) in both countries do not want to show the Sharks.

 

[The Ice Hockey Dude]

Sharks in 6 if RL plays.

not everything is about some random bias against the Sharks. I'd rather be on TSN since they have better pxp and color guys

 

[LadyStanley]

Did I miss it or did NHL Tonight skip previewing the Sharks-Vancouver series?
