(2) San Jose Sharks vs (3) Detroit Redwings - Series Thread

[Slimpikins]

Wait, weak what? I respectfully disagree. There's only one team in this series with a weak defensive core, and it ain't the Red Wings.

Congratulations on completely missing the point of that joke.

Both teams have strong forward lines, weak D corps, and inconsistent goalies.

San Jose has much better depth than they did last year, Detroit isn't as banged up.

Detroit is comming off of eight days of rest after sweeping a weak Phoenix team and San Jose will have been sitting for four days after beating LA in 6.

All of that considered San Jose will win the series becuase the Red Wings are named after used maxipads.

LET'S GO SHARKS!!!

i thought that the sharks 4th line was a liability in the kings series. their bottom 6 forwards were all minus players in the kings series. detroit's bottom 6 forwards are much improved this year with progression of guys like helm

The biggest mismatch in this series to me is the Red Wings forwards vs the Sharks defense. I think San Jose can & will score goals. The question I have is after being pulled twice in the Kings series Niemis was a big shaky. Against Detroit he's going to have to be at the top of his game if the Sharks are going to advance.

THANK GOD the Lightning won... there was a pattern developing with these series threads that was not boding well for the Sharks this series. Now, all seems to be righted.

Not the first time, won't be the last.

Sorry I am a little late to this. I was playing Baghdad vs Detroit, its a game where you look at desolate city pictures and guess weather they were taken in Baghdad or Detroit. Its harder than you would think- I got around 60%. Anyways, first and last time I say this, good luck Red Wings.

Hey check it out, I found the new logo for the Sharks third jerseys!

I don't think it was as clever as I thought it was. The only two replies I got were debating the setup lines.

Alright, I promise, no more cheap shots. Here's a nice Joe Thornton tribute as a peace offering.

 

[Eddie_Shack]

Alright, that's enough... seriously. Joe Thornton is a great guy and very dangerous. Here's him in the playoffs against Detroit.

Are you done, Eddie?

Taking a break, I have to go shoo the bums away from my car fire or else my cardboard box will get too cold. I'll have some more for you later.

The Sharks 3rd line was a combined +13 in the series. Pavelski +4, Mitchell +3, and Wellwood +6. The only minus line for the Sharks in the LA series was the 4th line though they played much better once Eager was benched in favor of McGinn.
