What are you talking about? Bennett is hurt and Sharks rookies should be thankful that Dell wont get them killed again

That's why I started by asking.
Still disappointing

 

[Yeti of the Flow]

LOL. Witkowski hammers somebody, is called on to answer the bell, and then kicks the **** out of him anyways.

It's a pretty dangerous hit to make.

 

[X8oD]

i enjoy this wings team, with all the old people out and all the young physical, skilled players playing. I dont even care if its costing them a chance at the #1. Id rather with with the youngsters then lose/win with the old folks brigade.

The ease that Smith's mask comes off is ridiculous. The league really needs to act on it.

However, this time was justified. Taking a shot of the mask with that velocity will undo/loosen the straps.

Yeah, I just realized that after the play had happened. However, this is literally the only pass that he gets ... The rest have been garbage.

 

[X8oD]

Wow. helluva dive by Marchand.

 

[hatterson]

rofl that interference call.

 

[compan]

That’s one way to force somebody else to take a penalty I guess lol

 

[Groo]

Not sure why you're trying to start an argument about who's the biggest tough guy.
Bennett isn't a tough guy but he'll fight anyone if necessary.

But really that isn't the Flames MO. They're a high speed, high skill team and that's the way they'll beat you.

I thought it would be the interesting sidebar in a game that doesn't mean a whole lot to the Sharks.

Beating the Flames doesn't mean a lot?? Well then I guess the Sharks players are a lot different than their fans.

This isn't a game that means a lot to the Sharks? Come on now... You're still chasing the Flames and still have chance of clinching the top seed barring a collapse by the Flames.

Agreed. Especially with how ad this game is getting out of hand, would have been nice to watch Bennett flatten a few Sharks players before the post season

 

[Brad Marchant]

Hahahaha jeez the Sharks are blowing it

 

[Rubi]

Lucky goal for the Flames but teams usually make their own luck. 4-1 now for the Flames.

 

[crazyfisherman]

Every line has been in on a goal now

 

[Scrantonicity 2]

Thornton looks 60 out there.

 

[bukwas]

7 Sharks sog at nearly the midway point.
Not a great effort today.

 

[Bounces R Way]

This is supposed to be the 2nd best team in the West? Not seeing it tonight.

Not a great effort today.

And yet some Sharks fans will complain that the reason they're behind 4-1 is because of bad reffing...

Well that's up to them.
Just calling what i see.

Clinching/Elimination Scenarios for March 31st

Will clinch a playoff spot if Arizona lose to Minnesota

Did Not Clinch

[Uncle Scrooge]

It took a huge effort from the Sharks last night to pull out of that losing streak and beat Vegas, just don't have it tonight.

That said, when you suck that bad for that long it almost always takes some time to get consistency. It's usually a fairly slow building process.

Not a great position to be at with 3 games to go in the regular season. Hopefully EK and Pavs really do provide a spark and make the team better instantly, not just on paper.

 

[Rubi]

Thats not what Backlund said to the ref... LOL

 

[X8oD]

Mantha first career hattrick

 

[Haatley]

I thought it would be the interesting sidebar in a game that doesn't mean a whole lot to the Sharks.

You do realize if the flames win they clinch conference and the only team that could have pulled ahead was the Sharks, right?
I think this game meant a lot to both teams.

Goalie masks have been flying off all season long, I don't know what it is, or if it's just purely strategy, but yes, the league needs to look into it.
