San Jose need to get younger. Get something(s) in value for Thornton at the least. He's a humongous guy that is only getting slower and more tired as the days go by. We pretty much have the same size as they do, yet we're so much faster as a team than them.

They've also got Pavelski. they're both decent enough to be 1st line centers; i'd say more than decent, actually.

Pavelski and Couture is not the worst 1st-2nd line center combo.
But it does leave the Sharks a little thin on the wing.
But you could shore that up with a Thorton trade.

I liked Clifford on that line earlier in the season, and Lewis wasn't too shabby with them either.
McLellan's statement strikes me as pure anger being vented, something he may be sorry about later. I don't think it has anything to do with trying to motivate his players or any other strategy he's trying to employ.
Think of it. Five wins in 44 days. In a compacted schedule. I can only imagine what Sutter would say and do if the Kings were going through this kind of slump.
Yes.
Oh, by the way, I saw your boy in person beat Berdych in Indian Wells on Saturday. I go to BNP Paribas every year for semi-finals day, and it cost me the San Jose game this year. :/ Oh well, still a blast.

Pics?
And why just the semis?
No pics, I didn't bring the camera, and as it turns out I was suffering most of the day with that stupid sunscreen getting in my eyes anyway.
My friends got me into this four years ago, we always just go on semi-finals day because that's the best value. It used to be both men's semis and the woman's final, but they wised up at Indian Wells and now they put both finals on Sunday...however, we don't go on Sundays, just too much driving to and from the L.A. area and one day is good enough for me.
I watched the final on TV today, pretty damn good...if the sun wasn't so tortuous I might have tried to make it out there.

Hahaha WOOOOW! That's harsh!
Somehow I don't think that's going to make the players want to play for him.
So I do not think we are going to be able to catch the Ducks for the division. So the quesiton i have is where woudl everyoen's ideal playoff spot be?
The 6th seed will likley play a weaker opponent points wise however the Wild are starting to click, and the Canucks will eventually get healthy and be dominent. I mean they have won two straight pres trophies.
The 4th seed would be key as we have been playing way better at home, but wil likely be against the blues.
Thoughts? I know nothign is confirmed and step one is just getting in, but it's something to think about.

Stoll has more goals this season on the third line than first-liner Justin Williams. mind=blown.
Williams is startingto turn it up bigtime though. With the long summer this has been such a odd year.
mind blwon stat for me is that Hickey has more goals that Drew

Well Dean did fire him after he went 8–12–2–2 with the Sharks in 02-03. Not bad by slump standards though.
