It could be worse. There's a subsection of GAF that is outraged Western markets are getting censored versions of their favourite pedo-games from Japan.
Unless Niemi has an off night, Sharks SHOULD win.

Off nights are bad ex.:Jonas Hiller
I really liked the effort from the players. We better come out flying today and Saturday
Stalock is starting for us tonight. He has been awesome so far though.
And re:those SB Nation articles: Both very accurate and true, A+ would read again.
TR has double the framerate, Ghosts has double the pixels, BF4 and AC4 run at 50% higher resolutions, etc. The difference is here now and won't go anywhere because one machine has a significantly better GPU.

That sounds a whole lot better than watching Dustin Brown play.
I'm absolutely convinced that most people nowadays are just looking to be outraged over something.
We've developed a culture in the West recently where everybody just wants an excuse to be angry and outraged. Especially on NeoGAF. I've seen people get high and mighty and inexcusably upset over the most stupidest of shit.

If there's even a remote possibility for somebody to take the high road and white knight, you bet your bottom dollar they'll do it.

.... until Bobby Ryan goes to a team that actually has money.
it's actually not significant.
fun fact: did you know that this gen is the 2nd closest gen in terms of relative power? or are you going to be an annoying muppet and keep posting console war shit in here too?

The Top 3 NA goalies at the 2014 draft are all American.

Ducks-age, fresh reminder of this years fleecings which only just occurred to me after looking at 2014 Draft info
And we have 2 first round and 2 second round picks.
Thanks Leafs/Sens.

He's come a long way. Was a fan last season and he almost didn't stay in Anaheim cause he wanted more money than what the Ducks were offering but he took a discount because he liked playing here.
Players always crank it up when they come to play in Anaheim. Love it. It's gotta be the women here.

We were just as surprised as you. Nobody had any expectations for him, and now he's set a high bar for himself.
Not Cheechoo or Blake levels of expectations, but at this point we expect him to be consistently better than Sbisa. Which he has been.
The atmosphere in the locker room goes a LONG way. I almost teared up when he said he loved playing with the Ducks and would love to play his entire career with Koivu.
He and Cam are great. Sbisa seems like the odd man out now which I'm honestly a bit disappointed.

Schroeder was also sent to Utica on a conditioning stint, so when he's back the lines might look like this:
Sedin-Kesler-Burrows
Kassian-Richardson-Booth
Higgins-Schroeder-Hansen
Sestito-Lain-Weise
Dalpe
A first line, two third lines, and a fourth.
Looking forward to a 0-0 game tonight.
Is today the end of Henrik's streak or did that happen already? Also, what game did he get hurt in?
i don't even know how i'm gonna handle the olympic break

AWWWWW <3
Yeah, it's getting dubious when we actually have to start thinking about where his future lies. Trade bait at the moment.
ALRIGHT KIDDO, YER GOIN' BACK TO PHILADELPHIA!
You can always watch Canada's unstoppable silver medal run!
yeah. i guess i could cheer on team kessel
Klein will save us.
We can drink a ton of beer, give each other concussions, and yell at pee wee hockey kids to play the right way.

He missed the Edmonton game on Tuesday.
I'm guessing the Hanzal cross-check in the Phoenix game did him in. He did play the next game vs. Calgary but only lasted two periods.

I had no idea the Sens were doing that well.
Ducks can choose this year's or next year's 2nd rounder of the Leafs too.

Can't watch the game cause I gotta go to work early. Don Quick, make us proud! :'(
Impossible since we traded the 2014 or 2015 2nd round pick to the Kings. Since we traded the 2014 to you, the Kings get 2015.

Gaming side is full of kids desperate to prove who has a bigger e-peen and why their choice of console is better than the others.
Ryse was amazing, absolutely loved the game. If it was a 40 dollar title, I could have seen it reviewed much more favorably.
I hate Luke Schenn.
Take him back you fucks.
But you liked him the first year!
He was OK in his first year and seemed decent.
This year he is poo. (Then again so is the rest of the team)
It took three separate injuries to force Tortorella to tell him not to play anymore.
He broke is finger about a week and a half ago. Then got speared into the ribs by Hanzal a week ago and played like that in the Calgary game where he was already half zombie... Then got hit again, went full zombie and Tortorella told him to not play in the third period.
Sad, but it's definitely the best for him to recover from all the injuries for once instead of playing through them.
Santorelli got hurt by Hanzal in the same game a few minutes later and is also out.
At least he still hits everything
I find it funny how quickly he lost his nickname "the human eraser"

That's where the coaches job comes into play. And with the way Maurice has been lately, you shouldn't need to worry.

I'm very cautiously optimistic about tonight. I don't think that they played that hot against the ducks, but just had a goalie that had an off night. Pavelec also played superb and looked more like he did pre-contract, which helps a lot. In any case, it's been exciting to really look forward to Jets games as of late. The team was really down prior to Maurice's hiring.
Let's hope they just focus and don't make too many boneheaded mistakes tonight. (Has Bogosian seemed out of it this year to everyone else, or is it just me?)
8-19-88 GONNA RIP YOU UP
The rest of the team....who knows!!!!!!! Having Couture out really hurts. Our backup is starting too, he has been stellar so far buuuuuuut he still hasn't had many starts.
I would say they should send him down and start playing Gill, but I wouldn't wish that on the Phantoms.

All I know about the Sharks is that they kick the red wings around each time they meet in the first round of the playoffs. And I think we beat you last time we played here? I don't recall. Once we play some more, we can get some kind of rivalry going. Want Setoguchi back though?
