There is so much pressure on the Sharks tonight.
Good luck!
Bring your lucky charm wherever you go tonight.
Light some candles
Say a prayer or two or three
Whatever it takes to make sure the Sharks win.

Do you know how many notherners live in Florida? The Yankees are more popular than the Marlins or Rays.
And San Jose is in Northern California. Neither of which is 'tropical'.
Sharks and Lightning both have great fans who come to the games.
For him to sign anywhere else the team would have to compensate the Isles with high draft picks.Kid-Wicked wrote:i heard! that's good news. i think he signed because they were willing to bring him in after the florida episode. they were taking a bit of a chance on him, but hey, they have nothing to lose, right?NeverSurrender wrote:Kid Wicked... told you they would sign him......

hearing they want to build a rink too.
that remains to be seen. brian burke had a good quote when he signed naslund after his first contract with the canucks.NeverSurrender wrote:For him to sign anywhere else the team would have to compensate the Isles with high draft picks.Kid-Wicked wrote:i heard! that's good news. i think he signed because they were willing to bring him in after the florida episode. they were taking a bit of a chance on him, but hey, they have nothing to lose, right?NeverSurrender wrote:Kid Wicked... told you they would sign him......

Grabner will be a 50 goal scorer soon. He had 34 this year and was rarely used on the power play.
Actually, Bolts played rope-a-dope a bit. They started off in the 1-3-1, but guickly went to a more traditional 1-2-2. I think that could be what through Julien off. That, and the back breaking second goal where Clark waltzed around the whole team and scored a softie on Thomas.SkyDog112046 wrote:What shit performance by the Bruins last night.
As usual, Julien did not have his team prepared. All everyone was talking about leading up to the game was Tampa's 1-3-1 but it appears Julien wasn't ready for it. He wasn't able to make to make any adjustments. The guy is clueless behind the bench.
That second Tampa goal was as soft as they get but you can't really blame Thomas for letting one get by as he robbed them of 3 or 4 more they should have had. But why did 2 Bruins just stand there and let Clark go by? And what the fuck was Kaberle doing on that 3rd goal? Julien should have benched his stupid ass after that brain fart.
Seguin looked pretty good. Must have killed Claude to see his rookie to score a goal. Seguin needs more ice time. The way to beat the 1-3-1 is with speed up the middle, and that kid is as fast as they get. And he seemed willing to hit too, I saw him take out a few Tampa players along the boards.
The Bruins power play sucks beyond belief. Where is the physical presence in front of the net to screen the shooter, to move bodies out of the way, and to pick up rebounds? Why do they set up so far out and why are they so reluctant to shoot once they get set up? Why not take advantage of Chara getting all that attention on the point? Maybe if the coach had a clue they wouldn't be so bad.
They switched off a few times for sure, but no matter what they did they were always a step ahead of Julien. Julien is more of a system guy and not really much of a coach. For some reason Boston insisted on going up the ice along the boards when there were open guys in lanes up the middle. If they had adjusted and gone with some speed up the middle they could have had a couple of breakaways and who knows what would have happened.WOLF wrote:Actually, Bolts played rope-a-dope a bit.

Guy Boucher is a really good coach. He's had stellar results in Canadian Major Junior, the World Juniors, the AHL, and now the NHL. He should have been nominated for Coach of the Year over Alain Vigneault. Pity the Habs let him get away, but you can't stand in the way of a guy in line for a promotion. I have a feeling he'll be coaching the Habs when his 4 years are up in Tampa.
i find it hilarious that the bruins are in the final 4 and yet there's still people bitching aboot the coach.SkyDog112046 wrote:What shit performance by the Bruins last night.

Skydogs a broken record. Even if the Bruins were to win the cup he'd still find some way to bitch about Julien.Kid-Wicked wrote:i find it hilarious that the bruins are in the final 4 and yet there's still people bitching aboot the coach.SkyDog112046 wrote:What shit performance by the Bruins last night.

I would love nothing more than to see the Bruins win the cup. But I doubt they will with Julien calling the shots. And everything I said is valid. This is still the guy who hasn't won anything with this team and who's team coughed up a 3-0 series lead last year. I go to the games and watch them on TV. And what I see is a team that frequently comes out flat, takes periods off, and makes mental errors. And that falls on the coach. Great coaches put a system in place but are willing to make adjustments when necessary. This guy rarely does that.LetUsPrey wrote:Skydogs a broken record.

They should sit Thornton and move Kelly to the 4th line. I'm assuming it will be Paille because of the leadership of Thornton, but Paille has more value on the PK.SkyDog112046 wrote:When Bergeron is ready there is no way Seguin can go back to the press box, even though Julien still had some criticism for the way the game went when he was on the ice.
