Series Thread: Second Round: Colorado Avalanche vs. San Jose Sharks

[MileHigh64]

All the pressure is on the Sharks, IMO. They've been in the playoffs for the last 13 or 14 seasons. The Avalanche have already over-achieved, based on this season and they have good, young players. It will be tough for the Avs to win tomorrow in San Jose but their season has already been a smashing success. I hope game 7 is much like the rest of the series has gone. This has been an incredibly fun hockey series to watch!

Yeah cause it not like we weren't down 3-1 and forced a game 7 on our pond already

Could see this game being a lot like last night's.

Really hope so but this time the away team winning.

Can't really say I have a preference on anything moving forward.

I guess I'd rather the Bruins not win the Cup but even that's only a slight desire. Couldn't really care at this point.

Yeah honestly neither do I but really the last thing I want to see is a Sharks/Bruins SCF.

Do you think Pierre McGuire would mention that Joe Thornton was originally drafted by the Bruins?

Just imagine the drinking games with this and with how many times he mentions Marco Sturm, Wayne Primeau and Brad Stuart.

And I can see this now....

Pierre: "Well we all know Matt Cullen went to St Cloud State and speaking of Saints....Joe Thornton was born in St Thomas Ontario."

And Marco Sturm's PeeWee coach with the Frankebeiter Mannschaft - Copernicus Diefendorfer.

Pierre: "Hey remember Jonathan Cheechoo who is a Cree Indian...He played for San Jose and got to play against Boston while on a line with Joe Thornton"

As Pierre rambles on and blows his mind....."Arno del Curto who coached Joe Thornton when he played in Davos was born in St. Moritz Switzerland"

Kane must be injured

when is he not?

 

[Cbrower91]

Kane really needs to get it going. Timo and EK still have an impact on the game when they don’t score. I forget Kane is out there until he skates right I to an Avs dman and turns the puck over.

Yeah Zadarov is treating him like Kane is his hoe and he owes him money

 

[Groo]

when is he not?

The guy is invisible. Not even finishing his checks.
He's not usually not a peel-n-teal player. Quite rare on the Sharks actually

 

[Mofo]

The Sharks have earned a spot, c’mon. Ignoring the terrible officiating in the Vegas Game 7, that team has put up with heartbreak and choking for decades.

Take it from a Caps fan.

It’s more about him all ways being injured and it’s usually his shoulders that are bad. When he’s healthy he’s all world though

Not saying they didn't, honestly they deserve to be there. Really just don't want to see them in the SCF.
