It's been a while since someone has posted.....(I have a hunch as to the reason for this..if you are curious ask me when you see me online =P ) so I thought I would put a few words in.
So far so good. A 13-3-1 record is a great start and those of you who read the SI article on teams that have won the Cup in the last four or five years all have had a better than .600 or some odd record in October.
The Good
*How bout it Seto? This guy's best quote so far was, "I thought I was fast, but Patty is just flying out there"
*The Captain is on fire. He just looks faster out there doesn't he? Good job Patty!
*Balanced scoring: Clowe, Pavs, The first line, Grier all chipping in
The Bad
Power Play efficiency
Inconsistent play from Michalek and Cheechoo
Boucher has not looked sharp the last two games as a backup
Forcast
The Sharks could use another sniper and or role player in my opinion. This maybe sacriligeous but if Cheech continues to struggle, maybe DW could look into trading him for a sniper come deadline. As to who is available during that time, remains to be seen. A role player like a Peca would be beneficial to help out on the penalty kill. Other than that the only team that could give the Sharks a serious challenge are still the defending Champs.

mhm maybe they listened to you last night Ting.
1) power play efficiency. Sharks were 4/9 last night, scoring 3 power play goals in the 1st period. They were on fire. The pp looked amazing. The later powerplays were pathetic...but that's cause Coach took Thorton out, and played Shelley for a significant amount of time...
2) Inconsistent play from Milan. 2 Goals last night? Awesome. His 2nd goal when he froze Kipper was amazing.
3) Boucher played a solid game last night. The one goal was on the penalty kill and the defenseman had a tough time getting the puck out.
they looked dominant last night.
and give it up our defenseman (and my boy ehrhoff). Franchise record 9 points from our Dman! 3 assists each from Ehrhoff, Blake, and Boyle.
way to go!
oh i think i mean to say Milan's first goal.
yes last night was an exception as far as power plays go and Milan's play...lets see if they can be consistent...Detroit's power play still #1 and killer
