Game 47: Sharks @ Blue Jackets 4:00pm NBCSCA

[OrrNumber4]

One of the worst periods of Sharks's hockey I've ever watched.

 

[karltonian]

The pisser is it's not that they are just being dominated and being denied any chance to make plays, they have chances and are just failing to do a goddamn thing.

 

[Anomie2029]

Where is the energy that Goodrow is meant to bring? Start a fight or something you useless plug.

 

[karltonian]

Graf has been utterly absent and he's the f1 so that line is useless right now.

 

[BaileyMacTavish]

1 shot in that period? They need all the assets they can get from their rentals. They're going to need it to make this team better.

If they wanna quit, they should. It's just easier for everyone involved. I don't have to waste my time, we take the L and are 1 step closer to Schaefer, Jackets get the 2 points. Literal win-win situation

Bench him and replace him with Vlasic.

I agree it's a win-win but I'm not for them quitting while they're trying to establish a new identity around guys like Celebrini and Eklund. They need to keep fighting like they have all year even when they were having shit games.

 

[Anomie2029]

Good news - Sharks are outshoot Werenski 7 to 5!

 

[BaileyMacTavish]

Of course not, but tonight they're clearly checked the f*** out. Team's silently quitting and frankly just they should be honest if they don't wanna be here

 

[Tw1ster]

PVR’d it and just finished the first period. I figured I would save myself some punishment and switch to live and I’m glad I skipped the second period. First period was utter shit and it looks like period two was even worse. This defence is putrid

 

[Anomie2029]

Of course not, but tonight they're clearly checked the f*** out. Team's silently quitting and frankly just they should be honest if they don't wanna be here

I mean Goodrow has made it pretty clear he didn't want to be at the Sharks...

 

[hohosaregood]

has granlund touched the puck yet

 

[Hodge]

How come CBJ is able to fill its arena for a random weeknight game against the Sharks but we draw less than 10k on a regular basis?

 

[The Nemesis]

Georgiev: "I'mma make my own fun."

 

[fasterthanlight]

celebrini with a sweet defensive play/such high iq he breaks cbj on a breakaway

They haven't cock teased their entire fan base for 20 years while continually raising prices after failing to finish

Their stadium is right in the heart of downtown. It’s easy to get to and there’s a million things to do around it.

They've been the most irrelevant franchise in the league for their entire existence instead.

Ours is also downtown across the street from a major train station.

completely baseless theory, i only looked at the street view and did no further investigation:
nationwide is integrated into the urban fabric of downtown and is served by significant transit options
sap is in a sea of parking lots that most people drive to, and traffic is horrible

 

[hohosaregood]

no cycle support and no urgency. just holding the puck looking for passing lanes like they're a team that can score at will.

Unless you’re going to San Pedro market there’s not much else

 

[Tw1ster]

Some nice zone time but when your point options are Rutta and Vlasic, there’s not much hope

 

[Timo Time]

It irks me how quickly forwards exit the zone and refuse puck support. I can not wait till we have legitimate blue line puck movers so our best play is no longer chip it off glass and pray

 

[BaileyMacTavish]

It is mentally taxing to watch this team. I'm just gonna shut the game off. I got way better things to do.
