HedleyLamarr 1,393 Posted April 24, 2009 I can not believe how bad the Sharks have playedGame 4 was really the first bad game the Sharks have played. Game 1 was a 1-0 game with two minutes to go, and Game 2 was a one-goal game.Doesn't hurt Anaheim that they're essentially the same team that won the Cup two years ago. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NEW.ERA 159 Posted April 24, 2009 As much as i'd love to see the Ducks win, I still believe the Sharks can get this to 7.Oh and the Finalists for the Lady Byng have been announced, Pavel Datsyuk will be going for his forth straight Lady Byng is contenders are Martin St Louis and Zach Parise. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Still MIGHTY 3,834 Posted April 24, 2009 I can not believe how bad the Sharks have playedMaybe the you can believe how well the Ducks have played?Maybe? Possibly?Hiller has played great in his playoff debut. 2 shutouts in the first 4 games. Calm, collected, cool. He has an unorthodox and sometimes sketchy style to him, but hey so did Dominik Hasek. Not saying he will have a Hasek-type career, but he has played well. (And personally I hope Jiggy has a huge rebound year next year and takes back the job. Or if Hiller falters, he takes it back.. but anyways)Penalty kill has been outstanding. The refs haven't been too kind (fairly or unfairly), but we finally got on the better end of the calls.Bobby Ryan is just flat out amazing. 4 goals in the series and 2 last night. The Perry, Getzlaf, and Ryan line has been just dominant. They control the puck down low and the Sharks haven't been able to get it away.Match-up wise, the Sharks look confused.Last night after the Ducks 2nd goal, the Sharks hesistated on just about eveything they did. The Sharks have look extremely confused this series. I don't know if that is solely on the players, or if McClennan is being outcoached by Carlyle.The Sharks might put everything into a last gasp in San Jose and bring it back to Anaheim, but I don't think they'd be able to bring it back up there for a 7th game.oh... and while I'm here 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
speedy 185 Posted April 24, 2009 Clever This series isn't a terrible surprise to me. Anaheim is a very dangerous playoff team with a tremendous blue line. The Sharks caught them at the wrong time, they were playing hot well before the playoffs even started. I wouldn't say San Jose choked, it was more like Anaheim is just a better built playoff team. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My money is now on San Jose winning the next two games, therefore going the limit with Anaheim, only to get blown out of the water in Game 7. Something tells me they're not done pissing off their own fans. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Don 7 Posted April 25, 2009 Caps force Game 6 in an utterly dominating performance on both ends of the rink. Varly threw his 2nd playoff shutout stopping 19 shots, Matt Bradley ignites the effort with a shorthanded goal, as mentioned above, an absolute gem of a goal by Ovechkin. they have to continue this, they CANNOT lapse in Game 6. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TrueYankee26 1,030 Posted April 25, 2009 Tortorella dropped the ball by benching Avery. As a result, the Rangers would have been better off not riding on I-95, and instead save gas money. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As a result, the Rangers would have been better off not riding on I-95, and instead save gas money.i dont understand your logic: Avery tried his damnest to give us the game in Game 4. we couldnt execute on the PP but Avery is clearly a detriment to the Rangers. how many goals does he have in the series again vs PIMs? please explain. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TrueYankee26 1,030 Posted April 25, 2009 So? It's a whole lot better than letting him rot in the bench! He's the reason the Rangers season was revived! 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
