The Sharks weren't the better team tonight. Sure, they had more shots, but they did not outplay us. We shot ourselves in the foot by taking stupid penalties, and the four minute high sticking call was of course going to kill us. I didn't see any blood on his face, but whatever.

And if that's the only intensity the Sharks can muster in game one, then they have problems. Not much pep in their step at all.

The Sharks commentators are like those from the English Premier League. They are anything but unbiased commentators. Having Versus use their coverage for the game is the worst part about the night.

I was streaming a TSN coverage and it wasn't any better from the looks of what VS had.

I thought we looked rusty tonight but you're right that the Sharks weren't the better team.

    We'll be back next time. The only thing that will hold us back on Sunday is a game in which poor refereeing occurs for both sides.

    This Sharks team isn't all that great. It's up to us to show them we're the better team.

    It has to be better. The VS coverage was streamed from the San Jose Comcast channel where Sharks fans were calling the game.

    VS is such fucking shit. They can't even have their own folks call the game. They have to rely on Cali Comcast. What a bunch of clowns.

    It's ridiculous for a channel that claims they want to build the sport of hockey.

    We get to enjoy another ten years of this coverage.

    But fuck ESPN anyway. Their coverage of other sports sucks, too.

    No buddy - I haven't watched a minute. There's just way too much quality playoff hockey right now. Amazing games every night, basically.

    Great, GREAT response from our 1st line today. David Krejci, welcome back - the guy tied his point production from the 1st series on his first shift of the game - 4 points on the night. Damn, did we ever need that. This is going to be a vicious, long series - hopefully the boys can keep their head on straight.

    This was Boston's best game of the playoffs - by far. The team really struggled with Montreal's speed, and while Philly has a ridiculously talented lineup, top to bottom they don't have Montreal's speed.

    Pekka Rinne with more amazing saves.

    He's pulling some Hasek-like stops out there.

    Incredible. Best goalie performance of the playoffs thus far.

    Terrible first period. These guys need to wake the fuck up. Stop taking such idiotic penalties, especially you, Hank. You know better.

    KEEP YOUR FUCKING STICKS DOWN.

    Jimmy and then Pavel are keeping us in this game.

    Doesn't look good for us. Can't get anything going offensively.
