Genius*

Sorry, but this misspelling always bothers me.

[Monteeun]

sigh

[CRAZY_4_NAZZY]

Kesler plays too much, and is paid too much to do nothing offensively. He needs to pick up the pace and start putting some numbers on the board,

[gg no re]

troll on trollboy.

[Jaimito]

not good enough.

didnt see the 1st period, but in the last 2, can't say they didnt try. have to smarter w the puck

back to drawing board. at least there's hope for improvement with kass back

[Stick-in-Rink]

this was a crapty way to burn 2.5 hours of studying time... was expecting a good game (

[PhillipBlunt]

Man, you're one of the more aggressive users here, aren't you?

[iinatcc]

i think torts is gonna be mad about this one...we just didn't seem to have the 'want' tonight...reverted back to the type of play av accepted this evening...

so much so he had to call a time out 5 mins in...they responded for a while then got lazy...

size seems to be our nemesis, can't fight through bigger teams to get to the net....but hey, MG has known this since 2012 and his willingness to let go of torres, glass, manny (not replacing his size) etc..

[JE14]

fml it's 1:39 and now i have to study.

[PhillipBlunt]

i'm a troll for being worried that these canucks can't beat a real team, okay. i'll change my view

OMG THE CANUCKS ARE THE BEST TEAM IN THE NHL, STILL ELITE, CAN PLAY FULL 60 MINUTES THE SHARKS JUST GOT LUCKY AND THE BENEFIT OF THE CALLS, THE REFS ARE OUT TO GET US, ALL IS WELL, ON TO THE NEXT GAME

[Lui's Knob]

Better than average teams but not in the upper echelon... San Jose Chicago, Pittsburgh and Boston the cream of the upper crop...

Where is Kesler!?!?

[SamJamIam]

Wtf....

Are you serious??? This has been legitimately one sided to SJ, no major reffing blunders. We just are not good enough in this game.

[wallstreetamigo]

Guys, if you change the situation and switch the situation to your favorate Nuck player taking a hit like that from a known offender from a rival team you would be calling for suspension.

[-Vintage Canuck-]

Sharks have now won 11 straight games vs. Canucks.

[DarthMelvin]

I see a blind pass by the sharks to an open player with ease but we can't even do that...we need players who know where u are on the ice at all times instead of constant ly throwing it up the side boards

[Ghost of Sacrilage]

You're either blind or irretrievably stupid.

[Ghost of Sacrilage]

I wouldn't say I'm aggressive, just fed up with blindness.

[gg no re]

You're not contributing anything whatsoever with your chicken little mentality, your posts are provoking and made specifically to generate a negative response from everyone on this board. Not a single poster said this team was perfect, but at least they are willing to rationally discuss the shortcomings without being on a soapbox like you seem to be.

[PhillipBlunt]

I'm as serious as you are unobservant. Sharks go offside in minute intervals and they get called for it once a period. They ice the puck and it gets magically waved off with regularity. They cheat on faceoffs and on the off chance the whistle is blown, they're even less likely to get waved out.

If you actually look at how the Sharks play, they hold Canuck players out of position with blatant interference. Never once seen it called against them in the last year. They play a game of strategic obstruction which goes far outside the realm of pick plays. It's the reason they constantly seem to have a step and the ability to get wide open easily. It's not hard to see, just subtle if you aren't looking and aren't on the ice.
