Sorry everyone, we have to cancel this week’s podcast, we’ll be back next Monday. Probably the podcast would be boring anyway since the Sharks keep winning and we have little to complain about. Although I’m sure we’d find something…

post Wait, a Game 6 Blog Post??

No chance to broadcast after that debacle last night, and I think people wouldn’t be so interested in hearing me beat my head into the wall on-air.  So I’ll keep it short.

The Sharks, for an unknown reason, just stopped playing after Nashville scored.  I can’t understand or explain it.  Look at the Sharks’s shot attempts- they had about 20 the rest of the way, and the Pred had over 60.  That’s domination I haven’t seen in a while.  This might not have been just the worst couple of periods the Sharks have played this playoffs- they might be the worst all year.

And if you look at the Corsi/Fenwick stats for the game, you see something extraordinary at the bottom of the chart:

Player Corsi Fenwick
Vlasic -17 -7
Pavelski -17 -15
Braun -17 -8
Hertl -18 -13
Thornton -19 -16
Jones -28 -16

When your best players are not only not your best players but your worst players, you lose.

The Sharks added James Reimer and Roman Polak at the deadline, with Raffi Torres, Alex Stalock, and Ben Smith exiting stage left.  What does this mean for the Sharks now, and how did the other playoff teams do?

The Sharks only win one at home, but they are still in second place in the division.  With some very winnable games coming, and the possible return of Logan Couture, the Sharks might see an uptick soon.
