Sharks, Ice and Hell

What do the Sharks, Ice and hell have in common? Well, I’m not really sure. But I am sure that the Sharks are Ice fucking cold and just lost to the Devils… so they are all somewhat related. The Sharks lost to the Devils 6-5 the other night, concluding their terribad road trip and ending my streak for a million dollars on ESPN’s streak for cash game (http://streak.espn.go.com/?addata=2009_STREAK_PAGE1).
The Sharks have been terrible lately, especially that dancing goaltender Nabokov, he’s got to get his head in the game. Sharks come back home now, where they are pretty much unbeatable, hopefully that gets them back on the right track.
Stop lollygagging and play some fucking hockey!

The Sharks continued their string of poor play last night, losing to Buffalo 6 - 5 in a shootout. The Sharks dug themselves a quick hole behind Evgeni Nabokov, who was actually seen frolicking around like a ballerina on numerous occasions throughout the game.
After the Sabers jumped out to a 4 - 1 lead the Sharks finally began trying and actually took the lead, 5 - 4. That was before Nabokov let down his teammates yet again giving up his 5th goal of the game. The Sabers then went on in a shootout to beat the Sharks.
The Sharks have really struggled of late, missing some key guys to injuries and in the midst of a tough east coast road trip hasn’t made things any easier. They really need to get better play from Nabokov if they are going to continue their dominant season, as he has been lit up the last few games he’s played. The only good news from the game is that they are only 1 more game away from ending their road trip and going back home, where they are pretty damn good.
Sharks ride stingy Nabokov to another W

Evgeni Nabokov made 24 saves to stay perfect since the break, and Christian Ehrhoff scored an early goal in the Sharks’ 2-0 victory over the Phoenix Coyotes on Thursday night.
Nabokov has been a human wall lately. Don’t let this mexican wall fool you, it can stop a puck.
Nabokov was just as effective as this wall would have been in front of the net, stopping all 24 shots he faced.
After blanking Colorado on Tuesday night, Nabokov returned to the Shark Tank and posted his 44th career shutout to push San Jose back atop the overall NHL standings with 77 points. Nabokov’s current scoreless streak is at 170 minutes, which is a franchise record! blah blah blah…
His teammates provided strong defense during a Phoenix power play in the final three minutes, and Marcel “the Gloc” Goc scored his first goal since Oct. 25 into an empty net with 14.3 seconds left in the Sharks’ seventh win in eight games. How hard can it be to score into a empty net…
Next up for the Sharks are the Chicago Blackhawks on Saturday night at the Tank.
