"For every moment of triumph, for every instance of beauty,
many souls must be trampled."
-Hunter S. Thompson
Game two was like those dreams I used to have when I snorted NyQuil. I only remember bits and pieces, but I think somebody scored a goal off of a throat or something? And wasn't Nabokov playing goalie nude? I'm almost certain of that.
The ending is a little clearer in my memory: Rob Blake pulled out a machete and chopped T.J. Galliardi into pieces, then Adam Foote got a penalty for baking a cake, and finally Devin Setoguchi scored and fireworks shot out of his dick. I think.
Anyways! I think plenty has been said about the chaos and insanity that was Friday night's game, so let's focus on the future. The Sharks skate into the world's largest Pepsi can tonight at 6:30, hoping to build off of the incredible emotion of their win. Although it was only a one goal win, you've got to think the Avalanche were pissed with their performance. They were badly out-shot and gave up the lead FIVE SEPARATE TIMES. Is that a record? I can't figure out what the hell to put into Google to find that out. Regardless, the Avalanche will definitely be looking to clamp down defensively.
How much can or should the Sharks try to change their game? They won, they showed incredible determination to keep clawing their way back into it, they got a ton of shots, and they dominated physically. However, there were some glaring defensive breakdowns (I'm looking at you, Douglas Murray) and Nabokov looked stunned for a large portion of the game. Since Nabby got his game back in the overtime, I'm not really concerned there. And since the defense did limit the Avs' shots so much throughout the game, that's probably going to be okay too. Barring any more freaky bounces or hockey-god wrath, the Sharks should be able to put up another win tonight.
To finish up here, I went to all the trouble of determining the average height and weight of the players in game two and then the stats aren't really notable one way or the other. I hate it when that happens. Well, if you're interested, here it is:
Sharks
Average Height - 6 ft 1 and 1/3 inches
Average Weight - 206 lbs
Average Age - 28.7 years
Avalanche
Average Height - 6 ft and 1/3 inches
Average Weight - 199 lbs
Average Age - 26.4 years
Yeah whatever, that was a waste of time. I should have just made a cartoon.
The top line looked much better in game two than game one, despite their lack of goals. Thornton had a sweet pass and Heatley and Marleau continued to be just on the edge of putting on in the net. I think tonight's the night when the big three show up big time, and I can't wait to see it.
Prediction: Sharks win 3-1, goals by Setoguchi, Marleau, and Heatley. Rob Blake sneezes and Avalanche fans piss themselves and call for his execution.

I had a dream where the Sharks absolutely destroyed the Avs
Rob Blake had a hat trick. Please let this happen.

Over at Fear the Fin in the gameday thread, I started this really long chain where we just gave hat tricks to everbody. The whole team, the coaching staf, the refs, the broadcasters, the Avalanche scoring into their own net, it was funny.

I just read through their game day thread. Apparently one of our posters got them all riled up on Dan Boyle.

I know a bit about deafening suspension yelling, but typically ours has come from Detroit or Canada — didn’t know that Colorado got into that, too. Still, beware of the guy on a high horse — he won’t be talked down, likely.

The greatest part about it is that they named Claude Lemieux the 11th Greatest Av of All-Time.
That’s the primary reason I’ve tried to ignore getting into a comment fight during the series. People like that just can’t be reasoned with.

This guy is insane. If Rob Blake wasn’t playing and bringing up the team average, the Sharks age would be basically the same as the Avs. The Sharks don’t have any more "old-timers" than the Avalanche, really.
Everything sucks except for the Sharks.
Battle of California
I found this blog post from the Denver Post amusing. It says the Sharks didn’t care much for the hit on Galiardi. Apparently Galiardi didn’t either:
"I shouldn’t have brought the puck across the middle in the first place," Galiardi said. "It was kind of uncharacteristic. I kind of lost it in my skates and all I remember is getting up and I didn’t have a helmet on.
As far as the lack of a penalty on the play, Galiardi said, "I’m a 21-year-old guy and it’s my first playoffs. I’ll let the officials do their job out there."
-WTC
and finally Devin Setoguchi scored and fireworks shot out of his dick. I think.

Since Nabby got his game back in the overtime, I’m not really concerned there.
Heh, four straight saves. Let’s ignore everything else. :)
"Ridin’ The Meat Train & Dreaming of Jack’s Johnson All Summer Long!"
http://www.battleofcali.com/
It’s weird how making a few key saves with the game on the line can be reassuring, but it is. The thing is, Nabby doesn’t need to be spectacular for the Sharks to win, and I’m confident he’ll be good enough.
Everything sucks except for the Sharks.
Battle of California
Oh, he doesn’t need to be spectacular, but he doesn’t need to be awful either. Sharks and Avs have been tied eight times this series and seven of those times the Avs broke the tie. Five of those times it took them less than three shots to do so.
Certainly, I’m conveniently leaving out things like breakaways, shitty throat bounces, whatever — but so far, he’s gotta be the scariest factor.
"Ridin’ The Meat Train & Dreaming of Jack’s Johnson All Summer Long!"
http://www.battleofcali.com/
Agreed, Nabokov is the biggest question mark. Odds are he’ll be fine (he usually bounces back well from a bad game), but I’ll be holding my breath for the first few shots against him.
Everything sucks except for the Sharks.
Battle of California
Whoa, he demanded a trade already?
"Ridin’ The Meat Train & Dreaming of Jack’s Johnson All Summer Long!"
http://www.battleofcali.com/
He's upset that he's not leading in scoring
Figured he’d hold out until they promised him they would tell the media he’s their best player.

Just a thought — if you were a coach and there was a delayed penalty for too many men, should you send that sixth guy back out there to try to touch the puck? Or heck, even send a few guys?
"Ridin’ The Meat Train & Dreaming of Jack’s Johnson All Summer Long!"
http://www.battleofcali.com/
I mean, it’s sort of a jerk move, but if you’re going to get the penalty anyway, maybe just do it gloriously.
"Ridin’ The Meat Train & Dreaming of Jack’s Johnson All Summer Long!"
http://www.battleofcali.com/
wouldn’t you get called on that penalty for each that you send out tho? … so could potentially get a 5 on 3 by that move?

If they thought it was intentional, they could at least call it an unsportsmanlike conduct. And the coach would probably be fined if they could prove it.

Battle of California
I don’t think too many men can be delayed. Usually they call it right then because the player often touches the puck, therefore blowing it dead instantly.
Denis Gauthier sucks at hockey... and life.
Period 1: Good strong finish for the Sharks after a weak start. Teams are trading chances. Hejduk is doubtful to return, so each team is down a major forward.
This game looks much tighter than the last one, but just as nerve-wracking.
