Post-Game Talk: Too cold for hockey? no tv tonight

[ThirdManIn]

And the Sharts announcer is ready to have kittens on the deal but Wilson got dumped by their boy so that's that!

Oh I spent the better part of the game in a debate with Sharks fans on the main boards.

I get their frustration with the lack of eligibility for video review, but come on. The ref thought he saw something. They are human. They see what they see. Just because your announcers whine about it doesn't mean it's worth whining about.

Just read that Peks was without crutches tonight. Horay to progress but let him heal completely before letting him practice.

 

[hockey diva]

Hornqvist may have gotten in the way of a Shea bomb and took it off his foot.

Bourque had a pretty bad game Sunday so I can see why he sat. As well as, the Sharks having some agitators.

Crowd was dead.

I think Marleau scores at least one goal a game against us.

 

[preds1]

Somebody was paying attention and got the ref to get the puck and they tossed it to the bench so Eckholm could keep it.

That was Legwand, saw him bring it over to the bench.

 

[Bringer of Jollity]

Tough to tell from the one angle being shown on the general board, so no context as to how much contact there was between Vlasic and Wilson or anything leading up to the end of that play. Undoubtedly a goal we'd all be pissed about if it went against us, but it's the type of call you inevitably have go against you a couple times a year, so whatever. Sharks are a better team than us, no real excuse for it being that close in the first place. We'll take the 2 points where we can get them.

 

[glenngineer]

Horny took one off of Josi on the first PP of the game.

 

[PFL615]

Looks like Legwand decided to leave his ski mask at home last night and didn't rob the team of his game check.

Starting to get disappointed in Cullen. Something needs to get him going.

Defensemen score 2 of the 3 goals.

 

[hockey diva]

Yeah, the Sharks fans want to whine about a blown call, when they had plenty of scoring chances. That point seems to have been overlooked in the " we was done wrong" hoopla.

 

[101st_fan]

An involved roster from the start of the game ... team defense ... a few breaks including a soft goal in our favor and what probably should have been a waived off game winner ... Maz with a good game ... now to see if they can do it again next game.

Thats Nashville for ya...

Last I checked (I believe going into the 3rd), Weber, Josi, and Ellis combined accounted for almost half of our shots.

That sounds accurate from the radio broadcast. Throw in Elk shot with his goal.

Good call...Ek too.

Edit: In the end, the D combined for 17 of our 28 shots. Sheesh...Is that normal around the league?

 

[Adz]

I went to the game and was surprised at how many people were there to join me. Figured it would be like that Atlanta game when we had the ice storm. It was a rather quiet crowd but engaged. I had fun.

 

[Cashville]

Wooo great win! Team is still so bi-polar; lose to Pants / Canes then go out and beat the Sharks in regulation.

To me that was goalie interference though haha. Congrats to Ekholm on his 1st!

No, pretty sad the D-men have more skill and willing to create offense than the forwards.

I would say Jones, Ellis, Weber, and Josi have a better ability to pass, enter the zone, and take shots then over half the forwards.

I'd say that is one of if not the biggest black mark on Trotz/Poile's tenure here.

 

[sighthndlady]

Sharks without 7 of their forwards are not quite as good as Preds minus Rinne. Hmmm.

It was a fun game to be at, though!

 

[sighthndlady]

That was Legwand, saw him bring it over to the bench.

He is amazingly good at making sure those first goal pucks get saved.

Really? On TV it looked completely empty.

Enjoyed listening to Drew Remenda's call of the game. Best in the biz, IMO.

I think it was a blown call, but that one goal was not the reason Nashville won. SJ could not get any zone pressure on Offense. They coldn't win key face-offs and Nashville effectively clogged up neutral zone making our forecheck a second late. Good grind-it-out win. Someday, maybe SJ'll figure out how to get two points from you.
GL rest of the way.

Even with their complaints about the goalie interference and inability to get our players' names right from time to time it was a good overall call. Hell, Pete and Terry have been with the team since day one and they still get our players wrong.

One thing on the Sharks broadcast I took note of was the chat with their assistant coach just before the third period. When their flat play was mentioned the coach said it was on their leadership group to change that by example and setting the tone for the team.

lol.


Crispy's call during a penalty kill was classic. "Predators are trapped in the zone like they're playing shorthanded"

Crispy has always been like a fun, drunk uncle...you have to remember you're talking to the problem, not the person.

Lately though, he's getting harder and harder to listen to.

 

[triggrman]

101, kind of joked about this the other night but yeah, it's getting rediculous.
