SBriand 4 Posted May 11, 2011 Share Posted May 11, 2011 I know be careful what you wish for but I hope SJ takes game 7. would love to see the Kesler/Thorton match up for 25 minutes a game. anyone still think kesler is overpaid at 5 mill a year long term?Kesler will make that elephant vagina look like crap. Thornton is ridic overrated. Link to post Share on other sites

SBriand 4 Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 Joe Thornton has played well against Detroit.Really? Pretty sure he is a minus right now and has been absent the last 3 games along with all the super star shark players. Even his dive was subpar. Link to post Share on other sites

Even his dive was subpar. Yes, he's -2. I guess Nik Lidstrom sucked this season.Thornton has 3 fewer points than Marty St. Louis who is -5.60.7% on FO is 4th best in playoffs and 2nd only to Bergeron among current playoff players.I'm not a big Joe Thornton fan, but to say he has sucked or whatever elephant's vagina implies is incorrect.I'm predicting a goal from him in game 7.

I will grant you he was much better the first 3 games of the series but the last 4 have been nothing to make me say, "oh he has been good this series". No, I don't think he has and I don't think many people do. They sure don't in the few SJ stories I have read where they are asking where their captain and the rest of the players have been the last 3 games. So let's see, Joe is goalless with 5 assists and a -2.The player who is to be his shadow has 2 goals 5 assists and is a +6So not only is Joe not producing he also isn't playing good defense if the guy who is on the ice against him most of the time is looking much better on paper. Just to throw out random stats that don't mean much to the debate, Nick is a +4 and Datsyuk is a +3 with 1 g and 7assists this series.But hey he is winning those faceoffs the last 12 games. [homer]Wonder if he would be 2nd in FO% if Datsyuk didn't have his wrist injury[/homer]Joe is doing great. As an elephant vagina. Link to post Share on other sites

The stats I pointed out are playoff stats. And the San Jose team as a whole has sucked the last 3 games which has a lot to do with why the series is now tied.Joe Thornton is not a goal scorer so highlighting the fact that he's goalless in his last x number of games seems a little ClaudeLemieuxRammingDrapersFaceIntoBoards-ish. His success relies heavily on others performing well and the team as a whole hasn't been playing well so his stats suffer. I still see more effort from him this time than ever before though.

Ok.The only thing I have left to say on this matter before Joe beats the Wings tonight is...Lunchtime! Link to post Share on other sites
digitalmonkey 929 Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 No, -2 for Nik is his season stat, but my point was that being a -2 does not equate to sucking.I've never had elephant's vagina. Let me know how it tastes. Link to post Share on other sites

grocery_mony 8 Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 I dont care if the Canucks ever win another game as long as they win 4 of there next 7. Die hard all my life, dont remember much of 82, remember 94 so clearly and it was an awesome time. diffrent feeling this time were not just happy to be there this time around. I kind of hope its Boston for no other reason then the series will have a little more prestige then playing Tampa where you can get a ticket for $60. Kesler's injury scares me that doesnt look good.
