Non-Minnesota NHL News VIII

Sharks PP.

Leddy to the box.

 

[Puhis]

Leddy penalty, slashing.

He hasn't really looked good at all thus far.

 

[Fel 96]

Whoa, so close.

Nice save Niemi.

 

[Puhis]

What a save Niemi!

Woah.

 

[Puhis]

That was a good period of hockey.

 

[Northland Wild Man]

Sounds like 2 teams that forgot how to play defense.

 

[Dee Oh Cee]

Woohoo I'm glad this game is entertaining. Was scared it would be a blowout.

 

[rynryn]

Good for Keith! There is no way in **** Parise, Koivu, or Suter would do that if someone got leveled.

hit to the head? i think that was a bad call.

 

[Dee Oh Cee]

Yeah refs blew that call. Call them both 5 for fighting...give Keith 2 for instigating I guess if you have to..but geez.

 

[rynryn]

do like the "instigating with a visor" rule though.

that was the weakest glass beating i've ever seen given by that ginger hawks fan after the goal. hang your head, sir.

 

[rynryn]

Brookbank is awful.

 

[Dee Oh Cee]

hahahah trapezoid penalty on Niemi.

 

[SwimToTheMoon]

When Havlat was here I seem to recall rumors that he wasn't a great locker room guy. Anyone else recall this?

 

[Mafoofoo]

Wow, that was quick.

Also, am I the only one who... Um... Sees some potential in James Sheppard? I mean, the trade was a right move and he was a whipping dog here but he hasn't looked too shabby.

That pass from behind the net to the point was a beauty.

Even though he hasn't gotten a goal yet he's been one of our best bottom 6 forwards and some of that top-6 potential is starting to show. So far it's looking like a great trade for the both of us. You guys got rid of Shep for a 3rd and Shep is starting to play really great for us.

Truth be told, Minnesota kind of sucks at developing players.

I'm not saying that it wasn't Sheppard's fault but he was put in a situation to lose.

 

[Haite]

Another randomly waved off goal for "incidental contact".



CBJ announcer provides an extra laugh.

 

[Victorious Secret]

I'm a proponent of giving the goalie a lot of space and not being in the crease. And even then, I don't see how that wasn't a goal.

 

[Jarick]

Shames is on fire! I call a one assist game a "Sheppard Explosion"

wins

 

[Victorious Secret]

In every game James Sheppard has a point this year, the Sharks have lost.

 

[Jarick]

Truth be told, Minnesota kind of sucks at developing players.

I'm not saying that it wasn't Sheppard's fault but he was put in a situation to lose.

Yep, that non-sanctioned ATV ride was all on the Wild.

Shep has one point in six games. Let's not get too excited.

Winger Guillaume Latendresse is suffering “recurring whiplash effects” according to MacLean and won’t be back against Buffalo. There should be some reason for concern. In some circles, “whiplash effects” are synonymous with “post-concussion syndrome.

 

[Fel 96]

Too bad.

Knew he had something else other than the flu.

sucks for lats--i really liked the guy. Super weird fellow, but very funny. Sucks to be right about not retaining him.

 

[Minnesota]

I guess Fletcher knew best. Go figure.
