Sharks v Islanders

The Men of the Hour

Nabbie his 500th game and Big Joe's 400th point
as San Jose Sharks

Injuries: Lil Joe and Mitchell hurt but getting close to full strength.
Healthy Scartch: McGinn and Staubitz
New Face: Ryan Vesce #53, remember his name Sharks fans
Update: Douglas Murray feeling much better

Yes, I know they won but as much as I love em, they are still a long way from a Stanley Cup team. Neither team was very disciplined, but more so the Sharks. Back to back penalties, drawing a penalty from the Islanders then taking a penalty themselves. Turnovers in the first period by the Sharks were insane at the Islanders blue line. They continue to struggle on 4 on 4, with trouble getting the puck out of their own zone.

On to the good of the game, Nabbie our beloved goaltender playing his 500th game as a Shark. In the 4-1 win the had goals from Patty Marleau, who is still captain in my heart; Thornton, Setoguchi and the newest member of our team Ryan Vesce with his 1st NHL goal in his 11th big league game.


Stars of the Game

1. Evgeni Nabokov 500th game & 32 saves
2. Joe Thornton 400th point & 2 assists & 1 goal
3. Ryan Vesce 1st NHL goal
