Sorry but even individually Sami was a non factor.I agree with post #835 comments about Vatanen.
Sami and Allen pair just don't work...no chemistry...Allen's brain is not in the same level with Sami
I just loved how Perry buried his face in his gloves when Souray released that howitzer. He was like "eff the tip in, I'm getting the hell out of the way".
I lived up here then. IT. WAS. AMAZING.

Did I say he is?Sorry but even individually Sami was a non factor.
Had lots of extra chromosome d-bags flip us off as they left, when it was obvious that their dream team had congealed into a nightmare. Poor ****ers. I'm sure quite a few are still in therapy.
Now they are rushing the "what building has the worst crowds" thread to point us out
Anaheim will always have finnish fans lol. Selanne lol. It was 5AM when the game started lol. Now it's 7:40AM lol, so some of them might be on their way to work lol. I have to go at least lol. Vatanen is not ready lol. He might need a full season in the AHL lol. But he is a fine prospect lol.
I think we're all very surprised by how good Etem looks, ever since training camp he really took another step in development. not only is he fast but he is physical, he makes things happen.That was my first live viewing of Etem since his Medicine Hat days and I left extremely impressed.
Although his audition has been brief, he's looked to be the best fit beside Getz/Perry yet. His speed and tenacity on the forecheck opens up a lot of room. Kid's always had a motor on him, nice to see him utilize it at this level.
That drive wide and cut towards the net in the 2nd(?) tonight was vintage Etem from his WHL days. If he continues doing that, he'll be successful at the NHL level.
Fasth was brilliant down the stretch.
Hey folks, really.
Sharks counts berfore this game was 7-0-1 and goals 30-14(!).
Now they score 1 and take 2 in.
So our defense must be something else than just crap and it seems to be quite hard to score agaist Sharks.
I have to agree, actually. But it is a strong team effort, rather than just defense. Our forwards are forechecking pretty hard a lot of times and we make defense with our offense. The SA-SF difference is amazing between Carlyle (last) years and Bruce.
Idk how, but faceoffs (even with this horrible game by Getz) improved drastically too under Bruce, along with other things. I liked Carlyle, he was our cup coach, but i have hard time not liking Bruce, even though, next game @ Colorado our lineup will probably look something like:
Allen-Getzlaf-Perry
Staubitz-Ryan-Selanne
Fasth-Koivu-Winnik
Etem-Bonino-Sbisa
Fowler-Beleskey
Souray-Beauchemin
Lydman-Palmieri
Hiller
Cogliano
Finally, found the song that is played @ HC after a win (there were different song at the end of Canucks game). Downloaded couple of games to foind out (it was reaally hard to understand the song with Hazy talking over it )
I kind of knew it was the Vaccines (a lot of you might not know the band, since it`s from England), but i wasn`t sure which song. So, here it is:
Kind of OT maybe, but someone might find this usefull.
Congrats on the win! We looked very bad at some points, though, but good to see we can get away with that. That shows something
