If it was anything like how the announcers describe it me too. No room for that garbage in hockey. The only reason I ask is because I've never seen him get involved in anything physical before.

Rusanowsky doesn't exaggerate that much so I doubt they were being reactionary.

Sometimes rookies and young players need it. Dillon is a physical player and I can see how a young guy fresh out of junior would hate to have a big dude like him pushing, hitting and leaning on you. Baseball swings are in no way an acceptable reaction.

Yup, really shinny doesn't even have that excuse, he was in the AHL last year. Classic Raffi hit, also nice that it was on grossman, not a fan of him so far.

So every goal by the Sharks so far has been off a point shot? I don't have much confidence in any d-men consistently getting shots through besides Burns so we'll see how long this lasts.

Statistically, the highest percentage shots are tip-ins and deflections. So if they can do that a lot, they're good. Guys like Dillon aren't really offensively talented, but he does have a big shot and if he could just launch it in the direction of the net and guys tip it, could be good.

Is it safe to say there won't be any more televised/streamed games for the rest of the preseason? We know SJ doesn't and I doubt the games in Arizona or Anaheim will be either.
