GDT: Sharks @ Kings 7:00pm Game 2 of the Balcers era

[Doctor Soraluce]

Offense is worse? By what metric? By on paper talk again?

Kings 2.80 goals for per game. Sharks 2.50 goals per game. Also better defensively by actual on ice metrics.

Have to go back and listen to locked on sharks again. They had the stat. 5 on 5 offense? Can't remember how they defined it. there were a number of categories the Sharks were better.

BTW your math is wrong...

 

[Doctor Soraluce]

Yeah nah, as Barrie already pointed out, LA is better in several ways to us, at the very BEST you could say they are equally as bad as us overall.

Disagreed. Also his math is wrong...

 

[Dicdonya]

Disagreed.

That is fine, its like arguing what turd smells worse, neither team is good right now so no use getting into it further.

For those with ATT in the Bay Area, what channel is the game on? Looks like NBCSN-CA is showing the Sacramento Kings game.

There's a scroll on the bottom that says it's on ATT channel 1768 in HD and 768 in SD.

Sharks haven’t played a single game at home yet, probably the longest road trip to start a season ever.

What’s their excuse??

 

[Pinkfloyd]

The starts haven't really been a problem. It's the second period that has been problematic.

See my edit... his math is wrong. They're almost dead even offensively.

Consequences of winning cups? Paid their core post-cup and now they mostly suck.

That they are rebuilding.....

How is my math wrong? I got the numbers directly from nhl.com.

And 5 on 5 goals for is 17 for the sharks and 18 by the kings.

 

[Pinkfloyd]

Knyzhov is getting better and better. Simek keeps playing this way, it may force the Sharks' hand on buying out Vlasic since I'm sure nobody wants him.

They're expected to win all game and even when they win it's not by enough goals...

 

[Barrie22]

See my edit... his math is wrong. They're almost dead even offensively.

25 goals for by the sharks and 31 for the kings. Sharks have played 1 less game.

There was nothing about my post that had math. It was taking there actual goals for per game right from the nhl.com website

LA 31/11 = 2.818
SJ 28/10 = 2.8

Your math is wrong.

Sharks Win PCT is also .45 while LA is .36. Tell me how that makes LA better? If you want you can make a separate post with a poll so we can all vote on it...

Come on. That's not fair.

I'm sure some animal shelter that would love to have him.

 

[Barrie22]

LA 31/11 = 2.818
SJ 28/10 = 2.8

Your math is wrong.

And you are wrong. They have not scored 28 goals. It is only 25.

Little hint to where you are wrong. Shoot out goals do not count as actual goals.

 

[Pinkfloyd]

Come on. That's not fair.

I'm sure some animal shelter that would love to have him.

If he was willing to retire to go there, I'd be cool with that but can't see it happening somehow lol

I hate that we’re going to end losing this game because we can’t put these golden opportunities away early.

ESPN says 28. Actually so does NHL.com... What are you looking at? Refresh your browser dude...

Yea, if this game goes like the rest of the games, we're about to give up 5 goals next period.

 

[Barrie22]

ESPN says 28

Nhl.com says 25. I am going to trust the actual leagues numbers over a 3rd party one.

 

[hohosaregood]

Meier needs to run these dudes who keep throwing soft picks on him.

 

[FunkyPhin]

Just joining this game, Balcers name is pronounced Ball-sers? I ain't down for this pronunciation, waive him
