Biggest Pest On The Sharks?

[skilks]

If the Canucks try to mess with Couture they will have to deal with Ryane "Papa Bear" Clowe, making him the pest. If not, Clowe will chirp at your guys, a lot.

Nichol played the pest role great against LA too.

Had to look this up out of curiosity... Ferriero actually got credit for 1 draw in Game 1, as well as Marleau, but that's still pretty crazy that Pavs drew 4 penalties considering the "balanced" penalty drawing in the other games.

Oh yeah, one of them was an offsetting minor.

No real pests on the team, but majority of the post whistle scrums seem to happen with Vlasic and Demers on the ice.

I wouldn't call Clowe a pest because even though he's physical, he plays a very clean game for the most part. He talks a lot, but if there's work to be done he won't just throw little slashes and crosschecks, he'll whoop somebody's ass.

I'm thinking if Eager plays in this series he'll return to his Chicago form and just harass Canuck players like the good old days.
