Official 2018/2019 Sharks Thread!

haha, it's crazy but I'm still juiced about that game. this feeling is up there with them beating detroit in year 3 when they move into the Shark Tank, and then calgary in year 4. Beating st. louis in game 7 which included a half-court bullet by my favorite player Owen Nolan. being up 3-1 to detroit then letting it slip away again and having to play game 7 for a second year, but this time pulling it out in OT as I watched.

I will remember this game too I think.

I've seen the team respond to adversity, but this was special. They are throwing everything in their being into this. Every head and every tooth. As close to a miracle as I've seen with this team, maybe.
 
Any word how Pavs is doing?

San Jose Sharks captain Joe Pavelski is doubtful for Friday night's Game 1 against the Colorado Avalanche after suffering a gruesome head injury on a controversial play in the third period of the Game 7 win over the Vegas Golden Knights.

"I saw him this morning. He's OK. I mean, I would term him day-to-day. I don't think he's going to play [in Game 1]," said San Jose coach Pete DeBoer.

It could have been worse It could have been something like a fractured skull or something like that, so thankfully it wasn't. He's definitely feeling the effects of it," said DeBoer.

The Sharks coach wouldn't specify if Pavelski had a concussion, but added "I said he was feeling the effects. You can put two and two together on that."

Thats what I took it as. :laughing

I seriously doubt they actually called them. I think the refs not being in round 2 was all they were getting in the way of any possible apology.

They probably got an off the record call by someone in the league office that said 'sorry it had to end that way, discretion of the refs, etc.' and McPhee took that as an apology. If the league felt they made the wrong call, they would have made a public statement. More relevant, the series supervisor Don VanMassenhoven, who is just about the most experienced ref still on the NHL payroll, said 'the major penalty was given because the cross-check caused a significant injury.' Again that's the rule and the extent of the injury has been used by the league for years. This is not the first time this exact type of call has been made. It's just the first time a team collapsed and gave up four goals in four minutes on the kill.

What about the blown call in game 2 that swung that game? People easily forget.

I wish the team boycot the game and went to the locker room. That ruined the game.
 
Anyone else notice the tweet from the Sharks after Game 1 tweaking the Knights? Something to the effect of "whaddya know, you can kill off four minutes of power play time..."

I thought Vlasic's comment was funny, but I just wish all these athletes in all these sports would just stop complaining about the refs and just play the fucking games. Nobody wants to hear all this nonsense about how the refs are biased against everyone. Nothing says 'loser' like whining about the refs.

solid game. still a bit off-and-on, but gotta give credit to the Avs especially their speed. Jones is playing solid and it's settled the team down a bit.

congrats to Nyquist and family for a healthy baby girl yesterday. He played well, as did the whole Couture line.

Good game.

FOR REAL !! I cannot believe how many posts and cross bars. They need to measure them. :laughing :laughing

also, Kane, you gotta make that empty netter bruh

Dude, seriously. He also needs to watch his fucking stick. He's lucky he only got dinged once, but he realistically could have gotten 3 high sticking calls. He was lazy lastnite. :x
 
also seems like something was going on with the ice. Nobody could keep a puck on their stick.

yeah it looked uncharacteristically choppy out there. I don't recall CO having bad ice in the past. The opposite, really. For a team built on speed, it behooves them to have great ice.

Nuggets are still in the playoffs, too. I believe they played the night before, IIRC.
