No Wings - Sharks GNT? here it is

[dash]

*lol*.... TSN just showed Howard going back to the bench after that stinker for some water, and the guys at the bench pretty much parted like the Red(wing) Sea. Lidstrom, Kronwall, Ericsson all were looking anywhere but at Howard.

That's called the Tim Cheveldae treatment, puck...

WOW...

 

[evolver115]

Wow!

 

[UTVolCountry]

Congrats, Sharks.

I don't see any way the Sharks blow a 3-0 lead.

Do my eyes deceive me? Jumbo Joe turning into a playoff performer right before my eyes! I love it!

Good game Wings fans. Obviously that's easy for me to say. I know there's nothing I can say that will make you guys feel better. I know Detroit won't lay down for game 4. They will make the Sharks earn the last win, just as they've made the Sharks work hard for all 3 wins so far. Hopefully the Sharks get it done.

I'm still in shock.

Wings fans, you guys have been brutalized by the terrible officiating in this series. I know that doesn't help, but 11 cups might right ;-)

I'm happy, but I do feel for you guys. It's what us Sharks fans are good at though.....empathizing with failure.

Ugh... congrats, Sharks. You have essentially taken the series. I think I will be rooting for San Jose the rest of the way, how can you not love Joe Pavelski?

I realize there's "a chance", and I suppose if I wanted to talk some junk, I would inform you that if there's one team in the entire league that COULD blow a 3-0 series lead to Detroit, it would be the Sharks. But it's just not happening this year. San Jose is firing on all cylinders now, Jumbo Jim is playing like he's kind of interested in winning, and their D is very cohesive.

Detroit, on the other hand... Howard let in two bad goals, Ericsson has been the goat (bad penalties and bad decisions, how do you join the rush like that in overtime?).

I'm just not seeing the sense of urgency or the killer instinct. How do you blow a 3-1 lead in such a crucial game? Howard may have let in some bad goals, but he bailed his team out several times too. Detroit played like it was a relatively important regular season game, not a must-win.

How very disappointing. I expected much better out of my club. Not to take anything away from the Sharks, they are playing fantastic.. but the Wings aren't putting up enough of a fight.

Goddammit, and a fuck.

Don't care. Botched calls can give teams power plays, help with goals, and even assist on wins. It still doesn't excuse blowing a 3-1 lead, or going down 3-0 in a series. Anyways, good luck in the next round!

Posty, Eddie and JonnyTata, you guys are some seriously classy, awesome fans. After the crap you've had to put up with with the Refs, I respectfully and sincerely tip my hat. I'm not proud of how the Sharks have gotten this far, but I am thankful.....as weird as that sounds.

 

[puckhead]

huh. come back from putting my kid to bed, and was wondering how come Sportscenter was on.
Congrats Sharks fans.... didn't see this one coming. (well, I kinda did in post 41)

Howard's stinkers were the difference.
