Notes from the First
- There seemed to be a lot more icing than usual, for both teams.
- Power Plays have not been too good tonight, or
- Penalty Kills have been very good tonight
- Both teams have been pretty good at clearing the puck on the PK
- Nitty's looked solid, having a bit of trouble with rebounds, but in this period, it looks like he mastered the leap-on-top-of-a-stray-rebound-to-avoid-second-chances.
- Most of the time the Sharks had some issues with passing, but occasionally HTML had some beautiful pass sequences that unfortunately didn't show up on the board.
- Logan Couture is boss, that kid is a fighter (not an instigator, more like he has "sticktoitedness", to steal a term from Drew)
Notes from the Second
- The refs actually got those calls right (didn't call Clowe's hit, called the cross-checking on McCarthy, who needs a nickname). Just saw the replay, shoulder to shoulder hit.
- Ahhaha! That's a huge size difference in those refs! Kind of like Lincoln and Douglas (that's were we are in US History).
- Little Joe is player winger for Logan? ....Interesting
- Logan may need to ask B Wilson for some help with his beard. Logan's beard is not one to fear.
- Thank god they could convert that 5 on 3. If they couldn't that would have been really sad.
- (4:40 left in the second) Joe Pavelski is due, he has 4 SOG in this game so far, 64 on the season and only 3 goals to show for it.
- It kind of worries me that the only goal we have came on a 5 on 3. Given, it only took us 11 seconds once we got the 2 man advantage, but then the next 1:44 of PP didn't help, and neither did any of the other PPs so far tonight. And certainly even strength has not been perfect for los tiburones.
- Ahaha that was great, Nitty just totally whacked that Islander in the legs
- Ugh. That call was disgusting. If a goalie is stupid enough to go that far out of the crease, he should not have the right to return.
- This is the second game in a row that what would have been the second Sharks goal is called back.
- Mitchy continues to impress me each game. That was a beautiful hit. Glad he's getting that confidence back. Oh, and Heatley just threw a check. A pretty good one, too.
- Lots of offsides in this third.
- I am still not used to this four on four format. Still stuck in 20min OT periods like the playoffs.
- Logan! Five hole, that was gorgeous.
- Oh my god. That was an absolutely beautiful save by Nitty. Absolutely awesome save.
- Nitty on shootouts; "It's fun when you win, it sucks when you lose"
