Post-Game Talk: 12/15/17 | Sharks 3 @ Canucks 4 in OT

[Peen]

Dowd has shown energy this game

 

[mossey3535]

my god, I always think NHL goalies will eventually figure out his shot, but it's just that damn good.

Guys assume now he's going to always one-time it a la Ovechkin but he actually stopped that one and picked his spot. He just has an uncanny knack of doing the right thing all the time.

 

[EpochLink]

Boeser is the OG

 

[Tim Calhoun]

Henrik Sedin has 15 points in his last 13 games (all assists).

 

[clunk]

Pettersson-Boeser is going to be a lot of fun to watch next season. Hopefully with new management that can actually build around them.

 

[Catamarca Livin]

I don't think I've seen a forward do the little things as well as Gaunce does in the past ten years outside of maybe Malhotra, burrows?

It is the big things he struggles with.

 

[2011 still hurts]

there's a small chance that the sedins and granlund can play a period like that another 2 times in the same evening, 22 shots and sustained zone time is pretty impressive

but it's gonna be the Toronto game again next 2 periods

let's hope boeser scores one before it's done

That won't happen. You can thank current management for drafting these two.

 

[HSD19]

And the sedins have 3 points each... of course they are the catalyst for our offense. Can still play!

Horvat was as good, right away. But perception has been coloured by that ridiculous pigeonholing management wanted to do with him in the last two seasons.

Look back at the prospects camp reports on Bo. Even at that point, always in the right place.

 

[Canuckle1970]

I know the Sharks are on a double-header, but the Nucks definitely have their heads in the game. Kudos to Green for this, win or lose.

 

[mossey3535]

I don't like Vanek with them though, he doesn't retrieve pucks and I get the feeling like all that board work is too much effort for him. All the sedin points are on the PP, no?

 

[Catamarca Livin]

Biega showing more already in a period and a bit than the whole d-corps has in 10 games.

Yes he is a good energy guy. Wears down though.

 

[HSD19]

Yes he is a good energy guy. Wears down though.

He's very smart defensivley.. I would say probably second to Tanev in that regard on this team.

 

[mossey3535]

Oh Troy

 

[GetFocht]

 

[Tryforthekingdom]

That was the most stylish goal point I think I've ever seen from a ref.

 

[mossey3535]

Jeez WTF three shots in a row.

 

[mossey3535]

I don't know why Granlund isn't replacing Gagner on this line, he's hot.

 

[Knight53]

And the sedins have 3 points each... of course they are the catalyst for our offense. Can still play!

I would bring them back for 1-2 years. Having 2 hall of famers around is probably doing wonders for Boeser's development.

I think a lot of the criticism against Bo is fair. Like I don't disagree with there being holes in his game. I don't believe they are as apparent and constant as others or management believed, but moreso small things for him to work on.

also @PorscheDesign

this team is on it's way to it's third bottom five finish in four years and we were supposed to compete with the league's elite by year 4 so i would be hesitant to defend management because we are leading the sharks by a goal

 

[WTG]

Oh Troy

Eh, the turnover wasn't that bad.

The result just ended badly.

 

[Peen]

it was a pretty bad play imo.

giving up a 3 on 2 with daniel sedin as your cover is a weak pass.

bad play, bad result

If they had flubled up the play we wouldn't be talking about it.

Offensive turnovers happen all the time.

I think if Pouliot did the same thing you'd see the flaw in how bad of a play it was.

It's a bad play when a defenseman turns it over to a create a 3 on 2, one of which is a forward.
