Jake Allen it is, I think the Sharks are going to spark him up. Not very good laterally at all the Sharks will have him dancing
id rather they pump rubber past him then into him lol. If the Sharks can get him moving laterally hes in trouble it opens up his 5 hole and he plays with narrow shoulders so he's prone to get beat up highNothing is a gurantee but I'm never a fan of random goalie changes. Almost always a kiss of death eventually.
Hopefully they pump him full of rubber.

I dont expect changing to allen to make a big difference. Whne your team scores zero goals in 2.5 games, it dont matter much who's in net. I just want the the sharks to keep the sound team structure, and continue to win battles, outwork STL, and take it to 'em! Im going to G4, so they better win!
lets be honest drafting is an major crap shootDougie's drafting is a very mixed bag. Lots of good, little great. I think one could say that pavs and pickles are his best picks. That said, lets not forget that cooch didnt fall from the sky. that was a direct result of dealing toskala and trading up to #9. One of the best picks in franchise history and at this moment the frontrunner for conn smythe. Also, lets not forget all the other guys listed earlier who have come in and contributed. One can add in other solid players like bonino, coyle, carle and others who went in trade. Dougie has had trouble drafting superstars (pavs the exception). he's also had virtually no top picks other than cooch which he got through trade. Hes a victim of his own success.
I would say overall, dougie has an A-. morris was pre DW (I believe) and kaspar busted at the end but he was pretty late 1st rounder and those often bust.
For me, the only part of dougies entire draft history that boils my blook is the 1st round of 2003 and 2005. Michalek was picked appropriately, but bernier was one of the worst picks in sharks history especially in light of the higher rater getzlaf and parise available. that was a grade A fuck up. The in 2005, they picked seto, who was ranked in the 20's ahead of the much higher ranked kopitar. The quacks won a cup on the back of the 2003 draft with getz and perry and philly came close with carter and richards. the sharks ended up with michalek and bernier, when they could have had either other pair. That was dougie's big screw up along with kopitar, but other than that, it's hard to argue too much.

Never came to play tonight. Sad. Classic Sharks resurfaced.
I now have more confidence in the Sharks than Warriors at this point in the season. Never thought I would say that.
