Orcas feeding the Sharks - Round 1 Stanley Cup Playoffs

[jstewismybastardson]

McLellan was pretty good ... saying the canucks are questioning the inegrity of the linesmen in game 1 and the refs in game 3

yup

 

[jstewismybastardson]

Shorty on the radio predicting Crampy is getting the start upon recovering from "Cinqo de Schneider" Sunday

Burish on Bieksa:

"While he's up on his soap box, trying to save the integrity of the game and doing all that stuff…"
"...I'd swing by Player No. 14 and Player No. 17 – The Beast – and have a little talk with them about diving and the integrity. Then he can work his way over to our room. But I'd start with those two guys in his room.”

And away we go...

You know what would be great - if the officials swallow their whistles for this one and let it be a diving free for all.

JermainFranklin ‏@TSNJFranklin now Schneider is the first off the ice. Looks like he's in like many suspected. Will get confirmation real soon

 

[jstewismybastardson]

Farhan Lalji ‏@FarhanLaljiTSN now Schneider confirms he is starting. #canucks

i would put a hundy on him getting the cramps tonight

 

[Winged_Wheel88]

Farhan Lalji ‏@FarhanLaljiTSN now Schneider confirms he is starting. #canucks

And by that he means that Schneider has confirmed that he will replace Luongo after Luongo replaces Schneider in the first period?

Crampy was great this season when he was/got in a rhythm ... up until sunday he hadnt been on the ice for 8 of the previous 13 days ... soooooooo?

Gallagher has started calling AV "Coach Hunch"

Yes, but there's also this:


But who cares that Luongo is the (much) better choice for tonight's game, given all the circumstances?

Is AV just hoping that Schneider is motivated after the game 3 performance and the Thornton comments (that Luongo has been great)? /shrug

call him Coach Hunch ... spread the word

 

[rares]

Haha, will do!

I mean, don't get me wrong, the Sharks are fully capable of getting shut out by ANY goalie and Schneider might very well do just that tonight, but I still think Luongo is the better choice for this matchup. /shrug

like i said crampy hasnt even been on the ice much these past 2 weeks let alone face any shots ... the goals he gave up in the 3rd of game 3 were all goals that he wasnt set and ready for ... has he found the missing rhythm in the past 48 hours? doubtful!

 

[jstewismybastardson]

if you get a chance to hear the soundbite of McLellan when he says they might get accused of biting ... give it a listen ... someone in the background lets out an:

"Ohhhhhh (no you dint')"

 

[dash]

Two predictions:

1. Sharks complete the sweep
2. There will be at least one hooking with a corresponding diving penalty called tonight

Thornton "cheats" to win a face-off, flops in the corner but somehow manages to get the puck back to the point and it ends up in the Canucks net.

1-0 Sharks

 

[forty_three]

Just flipped the channel over to Sharks/Nucks.

Burns tips one in.

I'm getting pretty good at this.





Oh, and Schneider's body language there just told me he's done. Already.
