Show ‘Em Your ‘O’ Face

September 17th, 2007 · No Comments

Speaking of the Sharks, another move - if you call signing Jeremy Roenick a ‘move’ and not a mistake - is that they seem to be offering all types tryouts. Included in this group is former Shark Sandis Ozolinsh, who I remember best for missing an empty net in game 7 against Toronto in [...]

This Is Kicked In The Junk Painful

September 17th, 2007 · No Comments

Awful… just awful.
I’m thinking radio is the way to follow the Sharks games this year. I won’t be able to keep food down watching them play in these…

“Our goal was to produce a uniform that paid homage to our birth as a franchise while incorporating a few elements that are more ‘now’,” said President [...]

Canada, You Really Okay With This?

September 12th, 2007 · No Comments

I keep waiting - partly in fear - for the new San Jose Sharks jerseys to come out as it looks like almost every team in the NHL will be tweaking their unis in some way, shape, or form this year. I guess that’s okay, but that does not mean that some of these [...]

Jeremy Roenick?

September 5th, 2007 · 1 Comment

Yesterday the Sharks signed veteran center Jeremy Roenick to a one year deal worth $500,000. I can’t tell if Roenick will be the Sharks’ third line center or fourth line center; either way this deal makes very little sense for either party, and is best summed up by my brother’s comment from yesterday:
Why?

San Jose [...]

I Can’t Remember What Happened To The Sharks Last Year…

September 3rd, 2007 · 2 Comments

Because they’ve got new unis, and if I have learned anything from sports, new unis always make fans forget the disappointments of past seasons, right?
Now, it’s a given that the Sharks did make the playoffs and got out of the first round, but they were a team who were pretty much ‘conference finals or bust’, [...]

Seal Clubber’s Fantasy Hockey Rankings

August 26th, 2007 · 3 Comments

Well, because I spent so much time putting together my fantasy cheat sheet for my drafts, I thought that I’d be an absolutely terrible blogger not to share that kind of information as I’m actually quite happy with how it turned out. Its a combination of my own info and formulas as well as [...]

Accountability… What’s That?

August 20th, 2007 · No Comments

Some of the recent events where athletes get their due is in large part to the work and efforts of Roger Goddell and the NFL. All pro sports needed was someone to break ground on the ass kicking party; and break ground he did. But in some cases, the accountability is part of [...]

Toskala Is Gone, Chipmuks Are Acting… My Universe Is Seriously (Censored) Up

June 22nd, 2007 · 1 Comment

First, whenever there is an “internet craze”, I always seem to be the last to find out. First or last, I’m still going to post it, cause the animal pretty much proves my assumption that Ben Afflect can be out acted by an animal.
Wait, let me set the little guy up…
Hey, did you hear [...]
