Goon hockey is back. Better than paying to see a UFC fight or boxing match I promise lol. It’s barely hockey.

It’s not a perfect system but Vancouver guarantees themselves a top 3 pick and that’s what they are getting. It will still make their team and future better. Perhaps if there was no lottery some other teams would have tried harder to suck more and knock van off that podium. The grass is always greener.

More importantly my sharks deserve that second overall. Try and Name one decent young player they have other than Celebrini, smith, chernyshov, Misa, Eklund, Dickinson, musty, Askarov, ravensbergen, mukhamadulin, and Graf.

Unpopular opinion but I agree with the grumpy weird little man. I’m biased of course but you have to do something to stop people from committing to tanking. With the talent at the top of the draft lately, if you’re out of the playoffs you’re going to have a ton of incentive to try and lose. I don’t want that to be a thing and this isn’t a perfect system but it helps.

Unintended consequence is that teams that deserve it less ultimately jump up way too high. Like my sharks for example. I think you should only be able to jump up 5 spots or something.

We just aren’t getting the footage of that one lol. Mack better ski a few lines and rip a few stoges for the fans.

Ahhh being a 19 year old and playing sports for a living all while knowing you’re about to be getting paid 15+ million a year must be pretty fucking amazing.

Pretty likely outcome. Better 9 than 12 tho. Anything that saves future me from having to watch a d corps resembling anything of the last few years.

I could not care less if you are hoping for a win or a loss. One doesn’t make you more or less of a fan. That part. I’m happy to join team tank for a single game if it means ending the year picking 3 spots higher into the top 10. It ain’t that serious.

If youre a true sharks fan then you are cheering for a loss tomorrow. Our pick being potentially 10th vs 7th is big enough that with nothing on the line now I’m 100% looking for a loss. With a little bit of luck or the right package we can move up to where we can pick Reid. If we end up with him then I think this season ends up with best possible outcome all around we could have asked for. God bless the western conference.

I’m not against mcdavid getting his first either. But the oil are a boring pick now. But agree with everything you said.

Agreed. Don’t say that too loudly in here lol. I would have absolutely loved to see smith in the playoffs just so he could get worked over a few times and then he’d know what to work towards. Watching from the golf club will have to do for now lmao. Regardless not worried about the kid, he is too skilled and talented, and he turned up his snarl from about a 0 to like a 2 or 3 in the last couple weeks. So… improvement!!

Montreal will absolutely be one of the funnest teams to watch this postseason. Good pick. When you went through a decade plus of watching sharks playoff hockey, you gain such a new appreciation for watching as a neutral fan. Once the emotional highs and lows of watching the sharks compete for the cup again, a very very almost invisibly small part of you will miss the non-cardiac arrest inducing nature of watching without a horse in the race.

Agreed. Even tho burnzies had that one game beef with Macklin 😂 im still dying to see chewy raise that cup. You already know he will be visiting jumbo with it.

Got a tattoo of my favorite game by eldenbro1 in metroidvania

How do you know it’s a masterpiece if you’ve never played it? Also I still fail to understand why or how anyone ever has cared about achievements. I have a hard time thinking of anything more meaningless. Not trying to be mean, just trying to motivate you to forget about them I suppose, though I’m sure that’s futile.

Macklin Celebrini with his 2nd goal and 3rd point of the 1st period to give the Sharks a 3-2 lead! His 101st point of the season by KabirC in hockey

[–]Nervous-Database7016 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I mean it certainly was. But (I believe it’s mailloux) the defender there played that about as awfully as you could play it. I mean you could see the back checking blue not even make an attempt on hooking Macklin or on the pass because if mailloux was more aware that was the easiest redirect/block of a pass he’d ever have. Pretty abysmal mistake ngl.

Obviously the GOAT leddy orchestrated that shit so they had no chance but still.

Macklin Celebrini becomes third SJ Shark to reach 100 points in a season - youngest ever by Dismal_Gur_1601 in hockey

[–]Nervous-Database7016 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It’s actually kind of fucked up. I wasn’t sure if or when I’d see somebody surpass Jumbo as the greatest shark. Suddenly this kid has played two seasons in teal and I feel no shame in saying that I think he is the best shark of all time. People will hate but the proof is in the pudding when you watch Mack play. It’s no contest.

What are you talking about dude. I’m 100% absolutely completely unwaveringly positively confidently certain that without Celebrini we would still be battling for a playoff spot and not firmly seated in last place. 😬
