BoC Gameday -- Aquatic Skirmish

PrintSan Jose Sharks (26-19-6) at Anaheim Ducks (28-20-4), 7 pm
Fear The Fin and Anaheim Calling -- in honor of the many groundhogs who died in service to this country.
Well, the All-Star Break is over, and for Anaheim at least it starts with a good ol' BoC battle. The Sharks, of course, rallied strong against Phoenix yesterday -- tonight is their second game back.
Yay that's a bad pun.
This is a pretty tough test between two streaking teams -- since their losing streak and the invention of Deadwood karma, the Sharks are 5-0-1 in their last six. The Ducks inexplicably are 10-3-0 since the game that Getzlaf got knocked out of -- fortunately, he's still out two more games, so the Ducks can hopefully continue whatever they're doing without him, and if they do end up needing him, his return isn't far away.
And wouldn't you know it -- tonight your blog buddies are going to be at the game, sitting in the Row B seats -- I'll be wearing the lucky green shirt as usual, and it's going to be Megalodon, Spade-in-Victorhell, and Tu Madre, too -- I have no idea what's going to happen! It's great! If you're going to the game and want to stop by and say hi, we'll be at Danny K's around 6:15, and then we'll wander over at about gametime. Should be a riot (hopefully not literally).
* * *
Megalodon sent me his contribution towards this post, too -- it seems he shockingly put in more effort than I did.
Instead of drawing a picture I thought it would be fun to include this picture of a shark-house I made in the PC game Minecraft. Some people might think it's awesome, or something. You can just put it at the end of the post along with my prediction:
Megalodon's Prediction: The Sharks win 3-1, with an awesome goal by Pavelski, a sweet goal by Thornton, and a fluke goal by Wellwood.
(deep breath) NEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRDDDDDDSSSSS!!!
I mean, hahaha, that's awesome.
Actual Prediction: Sharks suffer a "tough floss" tonight on an awesome goal by Perry, a sweet goal by Perry, and a fluke goal by Perry. Spade and Sleek get slaughtered in fooseball, too.
Go BoC.

Instead of drawing a picture I thought it would be fun to include this picture of a shark-house I made in the PC game Minecraft.
I’ve never played that, but does the entire game take place at night? You can hardly see it. And can you make a Patrick Marleau avatar with his Team Canada photo?

The game has a day-night cycle, I just took that picture at night to show off the red-torch eyes that I had just finished.
Here’s a daytime perspective:
And I’m sure somebody could make a respectable Patrick Marleau in Minecraft, but that’s beyond my abilities. The Shark-House was pretty daunting.

I’ve got to say that when I go to Sharks games at the Honda Center I’m pretty surprised at how many Sharks jerseys I see. Not just last game with the Shark Bus section, but every time I go there for Sharks games there seem to be a good number of Sharks fans. Is this normal for the Ducks or does this only happen when they play the Sharks (and probably the Kings)?
In my experience in San Jose seeing an opposing jersey was rare unless the Sharks were playing the stupid Red Wings.

My dad always says that the perfect attendance for a game is about 80% — you can walk around at intermission, lines to pee aren’t that long, etc.
The downside to this is that there are less hot bandwagon chicks to oogle and, of course, the team is probably losing.

Out of curiosity...
If the Ducks are so great… why does nobody go to the games?
They’ve lost 5000 season ticket holders since their win. At this rate the Coyotes will have better attendance than they do. You’re 26th in the league in attendance. More people go watch the Kings that have been around 40 years and haven’t won shit.
I’m sure that Cup win banner will look great in whatever city the Ducks get shipped to in the next decade.

I still feel bad for people that attended the Sharks home games to open our playoff series…Poor Sharks fans..
I rec’d that shit.
I’d feel bad for fans that attend Ducks playoff games lately… You know if they made the playoffs.
Of course, even when they did, more people would go to the early season Angels games across the street than want to watch playoff hockey around here.

Long answer: the Ducks sold off Chris Pronger and lost Scott Niedermayer and most of the people who signed up during the Cup run bailed. That’s why the Ducks have been pushing a lot into grassroots stuff (funding rinks, outreach, etc.), to build up that fanbase that will come no matter what. The Kings have a 40-year head start and the Sharks have no competition in the immediate area.
Short answer: Who the fuck cares?

Yah, I really doubt we’re going to move anywhere. The Samuelis have very deep pockets and will make sure we stick around. Plus, Bettman doesn’t like giving up on non-hockey market franchises. So, as long as I can get tickets and parking for a decent rate..I don’t really care if anyone else is attending.

Quick report postgame:
- Meg is cooler than I thought — fuck, I’m the lamest blogger here.
- Yeah, the Ducks lost the game, but we showed up late to the game — from when we showed up it was a 2-2 tilt.
- Props to Tu Madre for the Brass Monkey walk-over drinks. Best walk ever.
- My predictions both sucked. Ducks suffered the tough floss, and Sleek and Spade owned the fooseball table. :)

i knew it was gonna be a long shot to win the game….the sharks got a chewing out by the hedgehog the game before becuase they started off sloppy against the yotes..so you knew the sharks were gonna come out guns blazing…and they did..and you knew the ducks would be rusty and they were..i was hoping to weather the storm and come back later…almost happened…the 4th goal was the killer…after playing so many games were gonna have a lot of time between games..its gonna suck…i had a blast last nite though
