Everyone Agrees: Blue Jackets at Sharks Last Night Was One Big Slap Shot Reference

I thought I was being clever when I tweeted “WTF? When did I start watching Slapshot?” during the 3rd period of the Sharks game last night. But, clearly, I was only one of many. Here is the potion of the game that really said Slap Shot to me. Which looks quite similar to this scene [...]

Sharks at Canucks

The Sharks’ M.O. recently is apparently to play amazingly…just not amazingly enough to actually win.

Senators at Sharks: AKA What the Hell?

I really have no idea what the Sharks were doing last night. In the first period they we playing pretty well. They were in the Senators’ end more often than not, and they were putting good pressure on Sens’ goalie, Craig Anderson. Then, in the second and third periods, the entire game just fell apart: [...]

Flames at Sharks

The replay on YouTube doesn’t show it, but that Sharks’ goal in overtime that was waved off due to goaltender interference should have counted. The replay clearly showed that Flames’ goalie, Kiprusoff, was knocked down by a teammate, and no Shark touched him. But, what are you going to do? The Sharks were forced to [...]

Have you heard with what delight people quote some great celebrity who's proclaimed that he's not so great when he looks at Niagara Falls? It's as if they were smacking their lips in sheer glee that their best is dust before the brute force of an earthquake. As if they were sprawling on all fours, rubbing their foreheads in the mud to the majesty of a hurricane. But that's not the spirit that leashed fire, steam, electricity, that crossed oceans in sailing sloops, that built airplanes and dams...and skyscrapers. What is it they fear? What is it they hate so much, those who love to crawl? And Why?"
