dallas also only has ONE win in 2nd of b2b games this year. everything is pointing to a sj win tomorrow

...unfortunately this worries me.

Not to sound picky, but I would have liked it if Canucks didn't blow the Stars out. Stars had little motivation to really push themselves in the 3rd period and I was counting on the Sharks to catch the Stars very tired.

Oh well, no excuses. Also, its worth noting that there is a 2 day break between the 2 SJ/DAL games.

Wild on top of the Kings 2-1 in the 1st.

SpinTheBlackCircle · 03-31-2012, 07:48 PM

Kings tie it at 2

****ing minnesota, 3-2 LA whatever, we all knew that LA wasnt gonna **** up their games against edm and min, its a matter of SJ beating dallas in regulation twice, starting with tonight. and maybe a little help from anaheim tonight

not that we woulda won against deslauriers either, but i thought boudreau made a comment about icing the best lineup cuz he felt it was owed to all the teams fighting for a spot. sj gets hiller, phx gets deslauriers

welps today is not going our way at all so far...

How the hell does Phoenix get outshot 21-8 in a big game for them? And why the hell is Mike Smith playing like a 5 time Vezina trophy winner again?

SpinTheBlackCircle · 03-31-2012, 09:15 PM

Wild tie the Kings, nice.

KirbyDots · 03-31-2012, 09:16 PM

Under review but looks like the Wild just tied it.

SharksFan1 · 03-31-2012, 09:17 PM

Minny tied it up with 9:03 left is 3rd.

**ChompChomp** · 03-31-2012, 09:22 PM

The Wild are WILD!! Now find a way to score a few more and win this outright vs. LA.

Also, come on Ducks. Do the Flying V and net a couple against the Yotes!!

gonegonegone* · 03-31-2012, 09:24 PM

c'mon wild...

also, if the wild can at least force a SO, then even if the kings win it will help us. LA will be 4 pts ahead but only 2 ROW ahead, so if we both go into the last 2 games down 4 pts and 2 ROW down, we can still get a po spot by sweeping both games against them since we'll then own the season series.

Shark Fin Soup · 03-31-2012, 09:26 PM

Anaheim is throwing this game. I want an investigation. Aren't they supposed to own the Coyotes like they do the Sharks? Why did they beat the Sharks but not the Coyotes?

magic school bus · 03-31-2012, 09:32 PM

I hope the Islanders lose every single game they wear those terrible alternate jerseys.

juantimer · 03-31-2012, 09:32 PM

man that was a brutal pp by the wild.

juantimer · 03-31-2012, 09:36 PM

and a brutal penalty.

gonegonegone* · 03-31-2012, 09:38 PM

ugh 4 on 3 for LA in OT sigh.

Yep 4-0 now. And the Kings got at least one point. If the Sharks didn't already need to win this game bad enough, now they just need to win it that much more.

SpinTheBlackCircle · 03-31-2012, 09:51 PM

Kings lose, just get the 1 pt.

SharksFan1 · 03-31-2012, 09:52 PM

MIN wins in shootout!

gonegonegone* · 03-31-2012, 09:55 PM

niiice! just 3 pts ahead now!

sharkfan95 · 03-31-2012, 09:56 PM

the ducks are trolling sharks.....

Makes you wonder ... they have to be thinking that if they can keep us from making the playoffs or keep us from competing for the top seed and we fall on our faces in the playoffs, there would be temptation to blow the team up ... and that would obviously be great for our division rivals.

The eastern conference plays at a much higher tempo. Pens/Flyers is end to end.
