Top 20 NHL Trade Deadline Targets
Posted on 15 Jan 2012 by Corey Krakower.
As the NHL Trade Deadline of 3pm on February 27 nears; rumors, rumors and more rumors will be discussed in blogs, on radio, on television and on twitter. As this deadline approaches, teams will define themselves as buyers or sellers and as a result will start to identify who they want to pursue and who they are willing to part with. The major difference this year compared to prior years is that...

Sharks Split Games on the Road
Posted on 16 Mar 2011 by Alex Wasserstrom.
Just prior to puck-drop against the Chicago Blackhawks on Monday night, I tweeted that I was a little surprised to see Antti Niemi get the start in net for the San Jose Sharks. I felt as though he was due for an “off” night, being his 25th consecutive start, and that we'd might see Antero Niittymaki between the pipes. Sure, playing in Chicago against the team he went the distance wi...

Niemi Inks Extension
Posted on 2 Mar 2011 by Alex Wasserstrom.
In the wake of what was a quiet Trade Deadline day for San Jose, the Sharks announced yesterday that they have re-signed goaltender Antti Niemi to a 4-year contract extension. The deal is reportedly worth $3.8 million per year. Niemi has been great since becoming the clear starter after Antero Niittymaki went down with an injury. Niemi has really turned his season around after a tough start bo...

Big Win to Make it Three in a Row
Posted on 21 Jan 2011 by Alex Wasserstrom.
The lone goal in the shootout by Joe Pavelski proves to be enough for the San Jose Sharks to win their third straight – and first against Vancouver this season – on Thursday night. A slow start to the game saw the Sharks playing reaction-hockey while the Canucks dominated in puck possession and offensive zone time. The Canucks' efforts paid off on a nifty passing play by the Sedin t...

For Heater
Posted on 3 Dec 2010 by Alex Wasserstrom.
I've been quite critical of Antti Niemi during his tenure as a Shark but with good reason – he just wasn't getting the job done nor meeting expectations. Last night, I must say, he did very well in earning his first shutout as a Shark stopping 28 shots in the 4-0 victory. Niemi looked poised,confident, and efficient in net. It was obvious that the game against Chicago last week meant a lo...

Ducks Edge Sharks in OT
Posted on 10 Nov 2010 by Alex Wasserstrom.
Lubomir Vishnovsky's goal 4:27 into overtime gave the Anaheim Ducks a 3-2 win over the Sharks on Tuesday night. The Sharks outshot their opponents 41-20 but Jonas Hiller stepped into 2009-playoff-mode to backstop his team to victory. It looked as though the Sharks were ready to duplicate their win against Anaheim just 10 nights earlier, starting off in similar fashion with an early goal and a ...

Progress Report
Posted on 3 Nov 2010 by Alex Wasserstrom.
With their 1-0 loss to Minnesota on Tuesday, the Sharks now sit wedged in the middle of their division with a 5-4-1 record. Hitting the 10-game mark provides us with a sample size of where this team stands and what to expect from them. Things I like: The powerplay. Currently a league-best at 28.6%, the Sharks play with 4 fowards and the offensive-minded defensman Dan Boyle on the top unit. The ...

Jumbo Leads Sharks in Win Over Devils
Posted on 29 Oct 2010 by Alex Wasserstrom.
Joe Thornton must have read my blog (yeah right) when I called him out for being a minus-9 on the season and in need of stepping up as a captain. Wednesday night, at ‘The Tank', he did just that. Jumbo Joe had three goals and assist and the big trio – Thornton, Dany Heatley, and Patrick Marleau – combined for 13 points as the Sharks rolled over the listless New Jersey Devils 5...

Preview: Sharks vs Devils
Posted on 27 Oct 2010 by Alex Wasserstrom.
I guess the only positive thing about the Sharks' loss to Calgary on Sunday was that the score wasn't 8-0 – which it easily could have been. The Sharks will look to rebound tonight at home against the New Jersey Devils who currently sit at a league-worse 2-6-1. Drama, to say the least, has surrounded the organization with Ilya Kovalchuk being a healthy scratch for apparently missing a mee...

Sharks Roll Oilers 6-1
Posted on 24 Oct 2010 by Alex Wasserstrom.
The three powerplay goals scored by the Sharks helped propel them to a 6-1 victory over the Edmonton Oilers Saturday night. Antero Niittymaki saw his second consecutive start stopping 21 of the 22 shots faced. The pieces are coming together more and more for this Sharks team, as the big trio of Thornton, Heatley, and Marleau started the game together for the first time this season. Some fundam...

‘Little Joe’ Comes Up Big in Sharks’ Win
Posted on 22 Oct 2010 by Alex Wasserstrom.
It is a familiar sight for Avalanche fans to see Joe Pavelski pot a couple of goals against them, and Thursday night was no different. The Sharks won the game 4-2 in a much better performance than what was on display at home the other night against the Hurricanes. San Jose started the game with a lot of pressure on goaltender, Craig Anderson, but it would be the Avalanche who would strike firs...
