GDT: Game 18. Sharks at Rangers 4pm

[Pinkfloyd]

This game is showing the difference between a great team and a terrible team. Rangers just showed up late.

Yup. The Sharks are also shooting themselves in the foot because they can't handle the speed the Rangers play with when they're moving the puck.

That 4 on 1 just really depressed/angered me. You are playing against one of the best teams in hockey and you are trying to be cute. shoot the puck and maybe something will happen. The Sharks goal was kind of a fluke goal so you never know.

Rangers PP coming...

 

[Tw1ster]

Lots a rebounds coming off Blackwood this period

 

[Anomie2029]

Well... At least they had the lead for about 1/2 the game.

Sharks just lost all concentration. Started with one simple own zone little lapse of concentration with the loose puck slowly leaving the zone and then the whole team completely lost focus. Toffoli neutral turnover for a goal. Multiple odd men chances and no shots. They just completely lost their entire focus. It’s not that the rangers are that good. The sharks were very solid and their collective brains just turned off. Wierd….

And they just stopped playing man coverage in the D zone instead chasing the puck like mites. Stopped trying to pass. Stopped skating hard off the puck. I mean everything they did very well the first 25 mins of the game, they just stopped. Magically.

Celebrini goes the first 5 games with no negative games on his belt, goodrow joins him for 40 minutes goes -2.

Yeah! Even Blackwood lost all concentration. Pucks he should eat easily became juicy rebounds.

Complete team brain fart.

In all fairness Celebrini hasn’t been great since returning.

It’s going to be awesome when we don’t have scrubs in our top 6 anymore.

 

[BaileyMacTavish]

Have the guys we're trying to build around suddenly disappear or something?? I haven't noticed Mack or Smitty very much in that second

Growing pains of teenaged rookies, this seems normal

 

[Alaskanice]

We’re going to need to score the next goal to turn this around.

Big if true

 

[Anomie2029]

In all fairness Celebrini hasn’t been great since returning.

In all fairness, having players like Dellandrea and Goodrow on one wing, and Toffoli in a slump definitely doesn't help.

 

[Alaskanice]

Big if true

Killing the penalty to start will help a great deal.

 

[Anomie2029]

Sharks announced Sturm won't return.

You know it’s ok to be critical. They’re kids. They’re gonna have their struggles.

 

[Alaskanice]

Great PK

 

[Tw1ster]

A 4 on 1 and a clear cut breakaway with nary a shot on net is wild

Greeeeeat... Why can't we have good things. I miss the Celebrini that was playing against Minny and the Smith that played against Chicago already

i can't wait til we get past this string of contenders.

 

[OrrNumber4]

Granlund is having a bad game, and given the way the Sharks are constructed it's not something they can overcome.

 

[Pinkfloyd]

If Sturm can't play next game, Givani will probably get another game.

 

[fasterthanlight]

I wish he had 1 more top 6 W... anyone we could get for cheap
