Wouldn't mind seeing goose score.

Two part question why did Thorton lose his captaincy? If he wasn't a leader then why didn't he ask to leave then when they took it from him? How is that then not a leader? Conundrum...

Part of their team culture to do that it seems.

Erik Karlsson sucks

 

[Shaman464]

-1 or +1?

Apparently +

 

[Shaman464]

Erik Karlsson sucks

18 of 24.

Remember that stat. He was on the ice for 18 of 24 goals against. He's been a trainwreck defensively. Yeah he got an assist, but that doesn't undo the fact he's been really bad in his own end.

 

[Filppula]

That sucks.

Hope SJ get done next round. Don’t give a stuff about the pick.

 

[Lazlo Hollyfeld]

I know it's better for the Wings if the Sharks do well but man I can't root for them after winning on the call tonight.

 

[Steve Yzerlland]

Fleury is a bum. How did that idiot beat us in game 7 in Detroit?!

 

[Steve Yzerlland]

That sucks.

I hate the sharks f*** that pick I want them out. A deep playoff run might SWAY Karlsson to re-up too...

Yeah, they got a massive break for sure!

The OT period was quite a bit of fun with a lot of close calls. Meier looked very good in OT.

 

[Sadekuuro]

I'm almost always in favor of more OT, but man, Vegas got jobbed. At the same time, embarrassing to give up that many goals on one 5 minute kill.

Vegas got screwed.

 

[ManwithNoIdentity]

Don’t give me this poor Vegas shit

 

[Oddbob]

San Jose seems like a team that gets their fair share of breaks, as I always felt in their series against us back in the day, that things always just seemed to fall in their lap at the right time.

You don't have to feel sorry for vegas, but they got absolutely robbed. That overtime though is why nothing in sports beats playoff overtime hockey. the atmosphere and intensity is something else

He will be fine if he is paired with a real defensive stopper like Dekeyser

 

[Shaman464]

He will mentor Bowey into an actual NHL defender.

Less heartbreaking as well when it isn't your team in it, so you can just sit back and enjoy it. When we are in OT, I am on pins and needles, and does admittedly take some enjoyment out of it.

5 minute major LOL

 

[Oddbob]

5 minute major LOL

I can see someone photo-shopping Pavelski getting cut in half with this!

 

[Steve Yzerlland]

5 minute major LOL

That ref should get demoted to the AHL for this.

 

[Henkka]

Still don't see Sharks going past next round. too exhausted after this series.

Colorado is same kind of speed team like Vegas, rested and will kill them.

 

[Bondurant]

My health has declined significantly after the last two Vegas/Sharks game. Bad look on the 5 minute major seeing the slow motion replay. Vegas still shouldn't have given up 4 goals in 5 and they blew a commanding series lead and screwed the pooch at home on Sunday. Still frustrating to see shoddy officiating. Vegas will probably get an apology letter like the Lions get every dang year.
