Sharks player = X-men character they are most similar to
Prediction: Sharks win 2-1 in overtime. Clowe scores the winning goal from Murray, in the hockey equivalent of a Fastball Special.
(My 71st-favorite movie is X2. Yes, it's three slots better than Schindler's List.)

Joe Thornton as Gambit? This is ridiculous (although hilarious to imagine Joe Thornton dressed and talking like Gambit). He should clearly be Rogue.
Pavelski: Hey Joe, can I borrow some tape?
Thornton: Sure, suga (Removes glove, hands tape, touches Pavelski’s bare wrist)
Pavelski: Damnit, Joe, I told you you can’t get out of your slump by touching me! And stop calling everyone sugar!

After seeing True Blood, I just think of Anna Paquin’s boobies when I think of Rogue. And since Joe is always shirtless in his post-game interviews, I suppose it works!

Beast?
How can you have Beast in the cartoon, yet not name a character after him? This is bullshit, Meg. Bullshit.
This isbullBeastshit, Meg.BullBeastshit.

Uhhh Douglass Murray and the word beast are synonymous. Murray’s big, strong, and he’s the most educated guy on the team. Murray’s not Russian enough to be Colossus imo.
You guys are thinking too hard about this. McGinn is sort of like McCoy — go with that. :)

Wouldn’t Murray be more like Beast? Big, blue and educated? I’m sure he was hanging upside down when he came up with the Uber-Tap idea. Besides, the dude is on LinkedIn.
Retired Shark version — Mike Rathje = Professor X: Slow and supposedly cerebral
X2 is a fan-fucking-tastic movie. I was also surprised at how good First Class was even though it contradicted every X-Men timeline in existence.
Enjoying the Shady Acres of hockey blogging retirement. No, that's not the Florida Panthers.
Murray is the most like Beast of any Shark, but he’s even more like Colossus. That’s the best match out of any of them.
I was also pleased with McGinn = Cannonball.
First Class was a good movie, though I think I would have liked it better if it was just Magneto and Professor X and none of the actual X-men.

I'm also into Anime, I never got into American comics. A lot of people are horrified at the cartoons I didn't watch in the 90s.
Also, Dr Who and Star Trek are better than X-Men anyway, they deserve their on Sharks List.

Good god the ice was horrible.
There were more blades shaving snow last night than an Amy Weinhouse convention.
Hell, the ice didn’t even set prior to P2/P3 after the Zamboni runs…probably the humidity in the air from the rain.
