GDT: #20 – Sharks at Sabres – Tue Nov 18, 7:30PM ET – NBCSN – WGR

[Bps21*]

Should we start worrying about the tank?

We are being outshot more than 2:1

I wouldn't raise the white flag yet

12 goals in the past 3 games and still one period to go.

For some reason the Sharks can't beat us. Ever.

 

[Sabre the Win]

For some reason the Sharks can't beat us. Ever.

which is why they are the team we hope to play in the Stanley Cup.

 

[Bps21*]

12 goals in the past 3 games and still one period to go.

Goals are unpredictable...and at the shooting % of those 3 games...completely unsustainable. You keep getting outshot almost every single night...you don't have to worry about the tank.

 

[Tapu Coco]

12 goals in the past 3 games and still one period to go.

Goals only represent conversion

More possession/shots=more conversion

+sharks are tired, playing rookie goalie, etc

For some reason the Sharks can't beat us. Ever.

There was a time we couldn't beat Ottawa. Ever.

 

[PJ Kings Hockey]

Kings fans are impressed by Sabres fans thumbing their frozen noses at the snow to get to the game. We're rooting for you (to beat one of our arch-rivals, the Sharks. Again).

ETA: I assume you've seen this:

 

[Push Dr Tracksuit]

12 goals in the past 3 games and still one period to go.

and 1.3 gpg for the 16 games before that

 

[machpo]

I forget the level of stupidity Engblom brings to the game.

Should we start worrying about the tank?

I'd say the far likelier concern is of team being so monumentally bad that it ruins young guys currently on the team and obliterates the trade value of any roster player. I'm happy to see this team go hard.

 

[gallagt01]

Nice to get away from the tank for two quality games in a row, whether or not they win this one.

Risto and Zadorov have transitioned out of the d-zone very nicely today (at least after the first). Very encouraging to see.

Yea but let's hope they don't put up a good sized streak.. I mean I don't want last place to be close

Yea, that was funny, 5 years ago when the slug was current

 

[gallagt01]

Yea, that was funny, 5 years ago when the slug was current

Which is uglier, the slug or the current thirds?

 

[ZZamboni]

Which I'd uglier, the slug or the current thirds?

Slug .... Barely.

 

[start winnin]

It's mind boggling how we always beat the Sharks somehow.

 

[Gras]

Lol if this one gets called back

 

[Taro Tsujimoto]

I don't think that went all the way across.

 

[Samsonite23]

Haha I don't think that's in.

 

[machpo]

Don't think the evidence is conclusive enough to overrule it.

 

[Bps21*]

I don't think that one counts. But man...if I was a sharks fan...down 2 goals with one that should have counted and one that was called good and overturned...it is a curse.

 

[Push Dr Tracksuit]

rofl, this game

 

[machpo]

wow.
