Still Tied, And A Long Evening Ahead

August 31st, 2010

Other than Vince Vaughn improvising his way through the always noxious Kiss-Cam promotion by laying a lingering spit-swap with someone who looked a lot like fellow comedian Kevin James, the second period did take on that form we promised.
Now and then, anyway.
The Sharks broke first, with the…

You’ve Always Loved Patrick Marleau, Admit It

August 31st, 2010

He saved San Jose’s considerable bacon when it looked done, tying a game the Sharks looked sure to lose by converting a Dany Heatley rebound with 4:23 left in regulation and sending the game spinning into overtime at 2-2.
His goal came after Bolland converted a breakaway 2:32 earlier that looked…

A Reprieve? Perhaps

August 31st, 2010

A largely turgid first period was highlighted by San Jose’s first goal, by that likeliest of characters, Logan Couture .
An extended period of middle-ice jousting was spiced after about eight minutes by a seemingly unhelpful slashot by Douglas Murray which sailed wide left of the Chicago goal…

A Reprieve? Not So Fast There, Bucky

August 31st, 2010

The Sharks actually took a two-goal lead — Great Zot! — for the first time in the series when Patrick Marleau, your new BFF, converted Marc-Edouard Vlasic’s hard work into a score at 7:35. Vlasic blocked a Patrick Kane shot and then led the ensuing rush into the Blackhawks zone before…

A Reprieve? You Don’t Live That Well

August 31st, 2010

But Dustin Byfuglien does, because he always does. This time, at 14:05 following up on a Patrick Kane rebound while Dany Heatley was serving a penalty for slashing Kane.
The final? 4-2, Hawks. You may now resume your regular programming — until October. …

The New Pac Something Or Other

August 31st, 2010

The most interesting truth to come out of the Pac-10’s Lost Rumor Weekend is the way the universoity presidents got out of the way and let commissioner Larry Scott plot the conference’s future. Not that, given the times, Scott is doing anything other than keeping up with the Megajoneses, but it…

SaberCats, We Hardly Missed Ye

August 31st, 2010

It seems like yesterday that the San Jose SaberCats were the Bay Area’s most successful professional anything. It didn’t stop us from whining about how the 415, 650, 408 and Nickel-Dime had become a wasteland for pro jockery, but when the SaberCats called it quits after the 2008 Arena Football…

The Warriors, Disappearing Before Your Very Eyes

August 31st, 2010

Based on last year’s salaries and what mid-level second-round picks sign for these days, the Warriors did not cash in by moving Corey Maggette and the 44th pick to Milwaukee for Charlie Bell and Dan Gadzuric . Gadzuric’s contract expires after this coming year, while Bell’s has one more to…

The Heavy Lifting Is Done

August 31st, 2010

Signing Patrick Marleau and Joe Pavelski , as the Sharks announced this morning, means that Evgeni Nabokov’s sacrifice to cap relief was not in total vain. It still puts them slightly behind for the week, but not so much that Doug Wilson can’t convert a beer into energy with a clear…
