Stealth mode game, so its gonna be a canucks blowout

 

[fasterthanlight]

So stealth, you can't even tell they're out there

 

[hotcabbagesoup]

Burn the black jerseys!

Boudreau's magic spell has worn off.

I guess team teal is dead. We are now team black and white.

 

[TheBeard]

Yes. We're gonna have an amazing game, maybe score like 6 goals and look absolutely dominant purely to create this sense of optimism before we lose by 19 goals to a hungry Vegas team.

At least we get to watch Merkley QB PP2 so that’ll be interesting

Ha, this person thinks they will get a pp

 

[SJSharksfan39]

What is up with the Sharks uniform choices? They went white on Monday and tonight is the stealth. Maybe they aren't worthy of the teal anymore? I haven't seen the teal in over 3 weeks.

 

[sharski]

teal is just taking some time to figure some things out and establishing some clear boundaries to make it clear that they deserve to be treated with respect

 

[hotcabbagesoup]

One day, Jaden Halbgewachs just disappeared and never came back so the same thing probably happened with the Teal jerseys. Just seems like one of those things that happens from time to time during the Boughner regime.

 

[seroes]

We will. But only for 4 seconds.

I can't even give away tickets to tonight's game...

We have always been at war with Eastasia.

That’s why I laugh when people say that if we trade Hertl or tank/rebuild attendance will plummet. It’s going to regardless until this team becomes a contender again. Unfortunately, re-signing Hertl doesn’t put us any closer to being one again.

 

[tealzamboni]

The Sharks rebuilding plan is actually to phase out teal and make their jerseys and colors look vaguely similar to the Kings, Canucks, Lightning, Ducks, Knights. That way they'll give off the look of a team that's in the thick of things. It'll take at least 10 games of off-and-on performances before fans think twice about the team's actual abilities. But there'll already be 10 games of money in la banc. And the broadcast and PR will plant ideas to give the team another chance.

 

[The Nemesis]

I noticed that the black jerseys that Canada was wearing at the Olympics were repeatedly called the "stealth" jerseys by the broadcasters. And then they crapped out in the quarterfinals. If this doesn't establish the pattern that black jerseys with a "stealth" moniker are cursed, I don't know what will. Because no matter what anyone might say, 2 data points are a pattern

We have always been at war with Eastasia.

Freedom is slavery. Ignorance is strength. War is peace. Sharks hockey.

Maybe Raska went looking for him hence his disappearance, although it makes sense considering Lane's just been too good to take out of the lineup.

I'll take your tickets if you also give me a 2nd round pick for helping you out... P sure that's the going rate in 2022 (thanks Arizona)

Yup. Unless Hasso wants to finance it, the team very well might get moved due to unsustainable financial performance before a proper rebuild is completed. Good or bad, San Jose is a transient market (meaning there are lots of people who live/work here who are not from here and will ultimately not remain here long-term) and the transients don't have the patience for a rebuild.

Many armchair GM's don't seem to understand this.

I mean, whether or not the org is posturing about winning, the fans clearly know they're not good enough. They can talk all they want, but it's not going to make much of a difference until they actually start winning again on a regular basis.
