What a meme it was though... Seriously, since they came into the NHL, turquoise/teal/whatever blend of blue and green as become a stupidly common color for sports teams.

>>67211415
That's just the Preds system, Hutton does it too
>>67211386
Okay, so should we just yank our net away every time there's a shot on our goal. Apparently it's perfectly legal
>>67211350
Net was already coming off before the puck was shot into the net as well as no deliberate intention to throw the net off by a defending player. You're highly unlikely to see a ref call that a good goal unless some meme magic is in play.

>>67211874
Jewed because the team jacked up ticket prices and made a few offseason decisions that negatively affected the fanbase.
Disappointed because of reverse sweep and a really painful season following that. arguing between Thornton and DW irritated a lot of fans. fans mad at management, coaching, and players but not quite knowing who to blame. Most fans predicted the reverse sweep before it even happened because we're used to SJ sitting back on leads and letting teams catch them. Extremely aggravating. these things nuke a fanbase.
>>67211941
well said
>>67211940
>Implying the Blose can win important games
>>67211941
God those first three games in 2014 were won in such dominating fashion that I was convinced the Sharks would finally win
So are there lots of cultural events going on in San Jose tonight? Gallery openings, musical gigs? Are there a lot of great house parties or something? How can one explain all of these empty seats? Are there simply not that many Sharks fans?

>>67211966
I was fucking so die hard. and my passion literally died in that series. It's weird, like I'm excited that the sharks are in the playoffs but I feel whatever I won't care if they lose. I've turned fairweather honestly. I guess I was never die hard even though ive been a fan since they became a team.

that way we might even get to see a canadian team in the playoffs
>>67211989
all joking aside this is pretty sad for a 2nd round playoff game
Could of just gave the tickets away for parking and concession money
This is the honest truth, people (like me) rather spend all their money on the Warriors.
>>67211966
game 3 was pretty close but yes. Game 4 was.. aggravating. I distinctly being extremely let down during game 5. No hustle, no strength, no heart. They played like they were bored and like they didn't care. When you're a hardcore fan and your team plays like they don't care - well, this is the result. It'll take awhile to bring those people back to the fold. I think that a lot of fans felt the same way after that.
>>67212017
nah bro, you're die hard but the team let you down. you aren't a retarded canadian.
>>67212022
not in Silicon Valley, but rich people are usually pretty smart with their money. Would you pay more for a lesser product? Isn't it insulting to a fanbase to suggest that they should? therein lies the issue.

>>67212074
Ticket prices got jacked up for round 2. Shork fans aren't used to paying more than $40 for a ticket.
The score should be 1-0 but the refs fucked the sharks
>>67212017
You don't have to tell me about losing passion
