GDT: Game 37 Sharks @ Mack's home town team (aka Derranged Oreo Dolphins) 6pm

[karltonian]

the line mixer could be causing some issues as well. they look out of sync.

 

[TheBeard]

doesnt help they have lost their 3rd best player that was having a good game.

Who's their second?

Who's their second?

granlund

 

[TheBeard]

Lazy?? they had a bad 5 mins. A unscreened shot from 40 feet beat askarov. Great shot, but Asky has to have it.

Then a borderline interference on a 3-2 that was very poorly played. Then a 5-3. Horrific 5 mins, but the harks were outplaying the nucks overall before that. Maybe even, but certainly not lazy or dominated.

the Forwards have been lazy. Poor clearing attempts, lack of effort coming back. They've been lazy. Frustration I'm sure is a big part of it.

Yeah I’m confused as well…
Celebrini and Eklund are this teams best players. Granlund is third but has been poor.

 

[Barrie22]

Is it just me, that feels like they are overblowing this macklin is a vancouver player through and through, as all of his years where a player starts showing nhl level potential was spent in the usa.

granlund is certainly not below eklund.

Granlund has been better than Eky more than not this season but regardless, second or third, it’s a hit to this team

Macklin Celebrini friendship bracelet?

Who is he, Taylor Swift?

 

[karltonian]

may be a little picky but i think smith biffed it hard on that high turnover. took a crap line and eliminated himself from the play.

 

[Timo Time]

No way they just integrated "Candy/PLUR" into a promotion night. Generational marketing lol

uh that's not what friendship bracelets are in 2024

 

[Tw1ster]

We know sampler likes to make some crazy bets, wondering if he’ll put some money on the Sharks scoring three more goals on Demko

Does that mean we can get the refs to hand us a championship like the Chiefs?

 

[sampler]

He's not a top 10 d-man. Stop.

This year? I beg to differ (OK maybe top 15). What defines a top 10 D if you ignore last names? I definite it as two way play, scoring but also being a plus, and defending well, while eating minutes. Walman is T-12th in the league in D scoring, and actually 7th in points per game (30+ games).

he is +4, which seems mediocre but that's on the worst team in the league, and leads the sharks D by a good margin (2nd on the team only to zetterlund). Hes 35th in TOI, though 25th in TOI in december as his TOI has risen steadily all year with his great play.

Simply put, when hes on the ice, the sharks are actually pretty good. Otherwise, argh.

Over Grier's dead body. He's got a draft lotto to chase.

 

[Timo Time]

Celebrini natty hatty to tie this up

Not without Walman. the D has short circuited every attack. Ruuta fumbled 2 on 1. Ruuta wide open from the high slot shot wide. Mukh fumbles on the point over and over. Its hard to score 3 on 5.

Damn if toffoli buries that, it gets interesting...

Game aint over yet, but its pretty tough. Id like to see em work hard...

Give it 6 years when Celebrini starts to date swift and she starts to bring 5 million viewers per game to watch the sharks play every night

I guess we'll have to agree to disagree. No disrespect to Jake. He's been a revelation.

 

[Star Platinum]

There's 50 games left. lol

She's heavier on her skates

 

[Barrie22]

Celebrini is trying to take over the game

 

[The Nemesis]

Thrun: "No! My arbitraging eye! I'm not supposed to get pucks in it!"

There goes that Harvard Education.
