The San Jose Sharks are horror-bad

[Bounces R Way]

The players on the San Jose Sharks have to take a good long hard look in the mirror.

I know the team is bad but have some professional pride. Take your career seriously. They keep this up none of them are going to be working in this league for much longer.

They should fire Quinn and bring in Jumbo to head coach. Not even joking.

 

[Sykur]

At what point does this no longer become a laughing matter, and the league steps in and goes: "Either ice a competitive team or go to the AHL where you belong!"

 

[Hamilton Bulldogs]

OP wasn't lying, goddamn.

 

[Eternal Leaf]

This is one of the worst "NHL" teams I've ever seen. Time to demote.

 

[Albatros]

The Sharks aren't even close to being a top 50 team in the world at the moment and that's a rather sad achievement with NHL resources.

What would your answer be to “ice a better team”?

They don’t have anyone else.

 

[SeanMoneyHands]

I think we actually see this Sharks team lose 75 games this year lol.

 

[blueandgoldguy]

hmmmm. Could the best AHL team hang with the Sharks?

 

[Nathaniel Skywalker]

The worst team in the East is beating SJ 7-1 in the second period after SJ lost the previous game 10-1

Might be the worst team in NHL history

I've been watching hockey for 15 years. By far the worst team I've ever seen

This is one of the worst "NHL" teams I've ever seen. Time to demote.

Can a team actually be demoted?

 

[BusQuets]

Hertl and Granlund are their only NHL level players lol.

 

[Some Other Flame]

The Sharks are making their tank too obvious. They're embarrassing the league, not that league needs any help with that.

Still, at what point does Bettman and league step in to put an end to this farce? Could see him fining the team their first rounder if they keep it up.

 

[Sykur]

OP wasn't lying, goddamn.

Someone earlier in the thread tried to correct them, saying the term is actually Horribad.

No. OP got it right.

This is worse than horribad. This is Horror-Bad. It's an eldritch nightmare, an unholy abomination from which we can't look away from its penetrating, hypnotic abyss of existential dread. We are frozen with fear, paralyzed in a Dantean purgatory to witness this grotesque spectacle for the next 71 games.

May whatever deity you sacrifice live animals to have mercy on your soul.

With 32 teams in the league, might make a case for some relegation to the AHL for teams below 30

How do people ask this question, 15 years and you're asking if a team can be demoted? Lul wut

They're rebuilding and are tanking, similar to the 14-15 Sabres

 

[Turin]

They composed a team full of forwards who can't defend and defensemen who can't move the puck. And McKenzie Blackwood. I mean.

 

[trellaine201]

At least their consistent.

This team is that bad.

 

[God]

Again, this is an embarassment for the league. This really needs to be the last year they have a weighted lottery. Or they can be pricks and make it unweighted this season because they love to screw teams over operating within the rules.

 

[ricky0034]

how long has it been since a team has allowed 10+ goals two games in a row?

 

[Nathaniel Skywalker]

Do a soccer system bottom two teams get demoted and top 2 AHL teams make the show

I dunno. Fire everyone but Hertl?

Their prospects couldn't possibly do any worse.

They're not breaking any rules lmao

They're just bad

 

[KaN19]

This franchise deserves nothing more than dropping to the #3 pick in the lottery. Don't reward this shameless behaviour.

 

[Tairy Greene]

If they ever do win a game I feel for the first team that loses to them, especially if it's an underperforming team like Oilers or Flames.
