WCQF Game 3: Anaheim Ducks (2) at San Jose Sharks (3) 10:30 PM ET | SN1, TVAS2, CNBC, NBCSCA, PRIME

I actually think its a better matchup for the shark without thornton, thornton plays at a similar pace and getzlaf and that's a matchup getzlaf usually does well in... but hes average skating has been some what exposed in this series... he doesn't seem like he can win a puck battle at all. Maybe hes not 100% but he hasn't looked good at all in this series(goes for kesler/Henrique too)... our offense is basically Kase/Silf/Rakell/brown.

Hertl was going to go up against Getzlaf no matter what. That's how PDB has been matching lines for the majority of this season.

Guess well see how tonight goes, this is usually the game where Anaheim figures out they are supposed to win... plus I feel guys like kesler/perry play better on the road... they seem to enjoy being the bad guy. But jones hasn't really had to steal a game yet, and I feel like hell be the guy to watch on san jose(and hes def capable of doing so)

 

[Flair Hay]

How are they not equal at center? Even with Joe Thornton out, I would argue that they match up pretty evenly

I wouldn't have before the series but it certainly seems that way now

 

[Bender66]

Vermette's a winger now? What does he do if he's not in there for faceoffs?

Giving Carlyle foot rubs on the bench.

Seriously, not a single one of us has can answer that because we are just as baffled as you are why he is in the lineup. Especially after he was scratched (for good reason) for the last month and a half before the last game of the season. But The Forehead loves his overpaid slow useless veterans ... or some stupid antiquated reason like that.

I love the giant shark head. Vegas totally stole the idea.

Man, I wish I was there.

 

[Ace Card Bedard]

Ducks got this one.

Vegas had a hotel where you walked into the lions head before they had to change it for superstitious people. I think the big heads have been around.

 

[AaronDellForPrez]

That section 209 "Hey <opposing city>, You suck!" thing is a bizarre tradition, I'll give you that.

 

[LuGBuG]

Randy took out his boy! What will they talk about on the drive home!

 

[kducks]

Yep, starting out the same.

 

[AaronDellForPrez]

Beautiful, calculated!

 

[kducks]

BTW, you guys picked a bad goal song.

[Mallard]

Their speed is killing us. Horrible plays by Lindholm/Getz/Kase.

 

[AaronDellForPrez]

BTW, you guys picked a bad goal song.

Why? Because Gary Glitter is in jail?

Been the same for years

 

[CantLoseWithMatthews]

[kducks]

Why? Because Gary Glitter is in jail?

There's that too, it just sucks.

 

[slocal]

Been the same for years

Edgelord gonna edgelord.

 

[kducks]

Been the same for years

I know, you had a online vote poll a few years ago to pick a new one. I was just saying it wasn't a good pick.

 

[CrazyDuck4u]

Ducks are getting swept playing like this.. They just straight out suck..

 

[Tom Brady]

SAP Center looks so dark makes games unbearable to watch honestly.

 

[Mallard]

Sharks have the perfect game plan. Getz/perry/kes gonna be huffing and puffing. Speed kills
