[Derick*]

San Jose Sharks (19 - 7 - 5; 43 points, 2nd overall, 1st Pacific Division)

10:30 PM ET, December 9, 2009
HP Pavilion, San Jose, California
PRIME (HD), CSN-CA(HD)

Leading Scorers:



The Sharks: Joe Thornton; 7 goals, 33 assists, 40 points (1st overall)



The Kings: Anze Kopitar; 14 goals, 21 assists, 35 points (T-5th overall)

Officiating:

Furlatt #27, Kozari #40

"Furlatt is senior. Furlatt is a tight caller with significant game control issues. Kozari is mid level across the board. Both are mid level skaters. Furlatt had a game with the Sharks that seemed like a "get out of town" game in Edmonton. That means don't call anything so that they can hurry the game. Other than that, his other games tend to be tight with a fair number of calls." - SJeasy

Statistical Comparisons:



(fully stolen from ESPN, duh)

[Derick*]

Snog: 4 - 2 Sharks. Heatley hat trick, Boyle.

PS I'll do a better job with my next one. This is the last time I wait until the last fifteen minutes.

[Berto2k]

Will be at the game tonight, sec 120. Anyone gonna be in the house?

Should be a good close game. However the Sharks are almost never good after a extended break btwn games. But the Sharks are undefeated this season when I wear my Roenick jersey to the games, so yes I will be wearing it of course.

[WTFetus]

4-1 Sharks
Marleau, Boyle, Thornton, McGinn.

Should change it to 7:30 pm to make it Pacific Time friendly

[Domm]

hoping for a great game. kings just beat the flames & sharks are in need of a home win that sends a message.

a good friend asked whether or not he should get an "A" or a "C" on his boyle jersey for christmas..... then he suggested asking for a suit with "McClellan" on the back instead. suit up all the way

sharks 3-1 boyle, marleau & pavelski

Oh no the Roenick jersey...kings fan coming in peace...hopefully.

Looks like you have a better seat than me for the game.

Here's some info below regarding Ersberg getting the nod...damn I wanted to see Quick vs. Nabby.

Should be a great game! I'm sure the sharks are hungry after the calgary game.

So we lose in a SO?

[HOOCH2173]

For the love of Ray-J can we just get a win tonight? Can the freakin power play actually score goals?

Can anyone tell me what a potato bar is? (holiday party for the School District today and they say we are having a potato bar).

Will my cold ever go away and will I be able to breathe again?

Tune in at 730pm PST to find out!

The most interesting thing about King Anze the First is that he was 6'4" tall at the start of his reign, but only 5'6" at the end of it ...

Because of Joe "Oliver Cromwell" Thornton, Lord Protector of the Sharks ...

[MetropolisPt31]

Sharks 5, Kings 1.

Heater trick, Clowe, Pavs.

[LadyStanley]

AHL transactions have McGinn as recalled.

(Vesce still isn't shown as returned to Worcester. Wassup?)

Could he possibly be in the process of being traded?

[TheDanceOfMaternity]

LOL at the first two pictures.

[Berto2k]

Oops, I'm actually in Sec 120 like row 23. Couldn't find my tickets this morning that I printed out like 2 weeks ago. Gotta figure out a way to get em since I can't access ticketmaster on the network at work.
