LEAD

So, Jeff Samardzija has three RBIs for the Giants tonight. I wonder which bay area based "Shark" ends up scoring more tonight. 

 

 

 

 

It's probably going to be Samardzija.

Wendy?

Yes, Lisa.

 

Is the water warm enough?

 

Yes, Lisa.

 

Shall we begin?

 

Yes, Lisa.

Don't do this, Dallas and St. Louis.

 

I don't want to have to sit through ANOTHER Wild/Blackhawks series.

 

I'd rather see DAL/CHI, STL/DAL, hell even MIN/STL.

 

For all I hear about how great this division is, it's basically been the same outcome every spring.

 

Hoping for a rewrite of the script. CHI/MIN IV would be the single biggest letdown of the playoffs because it would  be something different.

 

I can stomach ONE of them blowing 3-1, but not both. Because otherwise, why bother pumping up the division when you know CHI/MIN will ALWAYS win in the first round?

 

Save us Dallas/St. Louis from the Capitals/Rangers of the West.

Longest 16 minutes begins!

[FiddySicks]

Welp, I've never seen that happen before. 

[ninersdd]

The guy from Wisconsin makes it 5-3!

[The_Admiral]

Terrible, terrible, terrible, terrible goal for Quick to give up there. Even the Kings may not be able to dig themselves out of this one.

[Alex Houston]

Every time I want to write this team off...every :censored:ing time...

 

[Kramerica Industries]

Some good goalies have given up some really bad goals tonight. Luongo simply whiffing on an unscreened shot from distance that he was squared up to is going to be tough to beat, though.

[FiddySicks]

Well, this is nice...

[masterchaoss]

Well I'm going to assume that the Kings are saving their next cup run for their 50th anniversary next year, and sports gods gave us back the Rams, so I guess you gotta give something up. And at least the Sharks are a little bit likable unlike that boring ass basketball team with the most overrated player I've ever seen that plays up their, but thats for another thread.

[teddthebucfan]

Brace yourselves.

[The_Admiral]

Not a Kings hater by any stretch, but yay, now they can't beat the Hawks' three in six with three in five!

[FiddySicks]

I gotta do something I NEVER do and give the Sharks some credit here. They fell asleep, yet still clamped down, stopped the bleeding, and pulled it out. Good for them.

"Oh bliss, bliss and heaven... Oh, it was gorgeousness and gorgeousity made flesh... And then, a bird of rarest-spun heaven metal, or like silvery wine flowing in a spaceship, gravity all nonsense now... I knew such lovely pictures."

 

The elixir of numb has failed... I feel again!

[Morgan33]

The Sharks deserve all the credit in the world for that third period performance.  Especially after whiffing on the penalty shot and blowing a three goal lead.
