GDT: Game 24: Sharks vs. Kings 7:30pm NBCSCA

[weastern bias]

I only tuned in for the 3rd period, and what a time to start, lol, just an absolute celebration of excess, I need a cigarette and a cold shower after that

Macklin Celebrini is real and he plays for my team, holy shit

Please keep him and Eklund together forever, they're a perfect fit, so complimentary

Celebrini is on pace to finish the season with 35 goals if he plays every game. . . he's 18 years old

Jesus

Um, Mario Ferraro looked like a f***ing Norris Trophy winner out there? What the f***? Lol

7 goals on 21 shots is legitimately hilarious, I think the team getting .916 goaltending might beat the team getting .666 goaltending, lol, f*** you LA, enjoy your mediocre team, we're having a party down here with the lotto balls

I love this stupid f***ing team

 

[Jargon]

Macklin is so good. Just like, watching his goals again, he’s insane. The Thornton trade and picking Macklin are by far the biggest moments fornthis franchise.

 

[Hodge]

The universe is karmically rebalancing after we had to watch Mike Hoffman wander around the ice aimlessly for a full season.

I had forgotten about the 7-6 loss to Dallas until Randy brought it up. Last season was an elite tanking operation wire to wire.

 

[TheBeard]

Hey. Just remember. None of this happened until I posted the Major against Vegas.

You’re welcome.

 

[Pavelski2112]

That might've honestly been the best game Mario Ferraro has ever played

He looked legitimately fantastic

 

[OverTheLine]

The LA color guy mentioned that Rittich had only let in 7 goals in his last 6 games... Really unfortunate doubling that stat took tonight lmao. Going from 7 in 6 to 14 in 7 in one night is a brutal turn of fate.

I had forgotten about the 7-6 loss to Dallas until Randy brought it up. Last season was an elite tanking operation wire to wire.

Truly. And so worth it… even though I really really hated watching Hoffman play.

 

[Pinkfloyd]

I know it probably won't happen, but I'd sure like to see Askarov stay up here permanently

I would too but the only way to do that is trade Blackwood or waive Vanecek. I’d prefer the trade even if it’s less than we could get but I’m impatient lol

According to HockeyStats he had the third worst game of all the sharks so I legit don’t get their metrics

I keep hoping the Avalanche will cave and give in to the inevitable

 

[hohosaregood]

It's absolutely absurd how underrated Celebrini was as a prospect. There was this weirdly big gap between what the people who were really keyed in on prospects thought and the rest of the hockey world.

 

[Pinkfloyd]

Askarov should’ve got a star but oh well.

 

[The Nemesis]

I keep hoping the Avalanche will cave and give in to the inevitable

they apparently had a meltdown tonight. I switched off the game feed right to the end of the recap of their game tonight featuring Giorgiev freaking out and smashing his stick into the glass.

 

[TheBeard]

Askarov should’ve got a star but oh well.

There were at least 6 guys that deserves stars. Zetterlund, Eklund, Wallman.

 

[Munnyro]

This was our roster at game 23 last year.

 

[Lebanezer]

It's absolutely absurd how underrated Celebrini was as a prospect. There was this weirdly big gap between what the people who were really keyed in on prospects thought and the rest of the hockey world.

He’s too defensively responsible to be cool.

 

[Pinkfloyd]

I’m a goalie guy and an assist and first win with the team is going to get me pumping the kid’s tires lol

And this is why we have Macklin…..bravo to everyone who suffered through that roster

Really? I thought people loved him; the hype was very high. He's met that, but the hype was very high.

 

[Shark Finn]

Really? I thought people loved him; the hype was very high. He's met that, but the hype was very high.

I think there was a definite hype hangover after Bedard.

 

[Jargon]

I remember reading Chicago fans putting lines together with Bedard and Celebrini on their dumb team and I’m so happy they jinxed it, they don’t deserve him.

 

[TheBeard]

Askarov seems so happy tonight. Also, loved hearing him call the team "like a machine" in his Russian accent.

 

[Pinkfloyd]

I remember reading Chicago fans putting lines together with Bedard and Celebrini on their dumb team and I’m so happy they jinxed it, they don’t deserve him.

They don’t deserve Bedard either.

 

[hohosaregood]

Really? I thought people loved him; the hype was very high. He's met that, but the hype was very high.

The sense I got was that the wider hockey world thought he was more of an above average 1OA closer to a Nico Hischier kinda guy. Great 1C but maybe not the franchise guy.

 

[Hodge]

People laughed in the summer when I suggested Celebrini should be on Team Canada for the four nations tournament. Granted, he's probably missed too many games to make it but he's already a better player than guys like Bedard and Suzuki who are penciled into that roster.
