Hey can you guys clear this up for me?

Quick goes down to injury, and all Ben Scrivens does in relief is put up the second lowest GAA in the league, as well as the highest PCT. in the league, and he gets benched.

Now I know Jones has played extremely well, but then Nick Kypreos intimated that the reason Sutter started to go with Jones to begin with was because of some tweet that Scrivens put out there.

Is that true? And if not, why did Sutter START to use Jones to begin with (I can understand why he keeps starting him).

- The Koz



Jones was used after Scrivens tweaked himself in warmups before Jones's first start.

Sutter is notorious for riding hot goaltender so soon as Jones started getting on a roll Sutter stuck with him.

I haven't heard or seen anything about a tweet. It's a simple play the hot hand moment. Scrivens got a bit "banged up" I believe is the words Sutter used when asked why he started jones over Scrivens randomly. Scrivens was even the first on the ice for warmups that night but was later sat in favor of Jones. Simple as that.

If you are going to have a "problem", having too many good goalies is a great "problem" to have.

Uhhhhhh, yeaaa, riiiiight. Hmmmmm, seem to remember a certain Ryan Clowe blatantly cheating in one game, then lying about it, and receiving no discipline.... yep, no favoritism there.....

Yeah, because a stick over the bench is the same as ending a player's season with a knee to knee hit.

You don't get much sun, do you?

Your point was that the league showed favoritism to the Kings and none to the Sharts. My counterpoint was to provide you with an example of the league providing the Sharts with favoritism over the Kings. Yes, I get plenty of sun, and a lot of it was during our Stanley Cup parade in June of 2012. Move to So Cal where 2 Cups have been won in the sun.

Are you a Coyotes fan? If so, you do realize that Roszival survived that hit and was playing golf the next day. Brown plays hard, as does the entire Kings team. Some teams just cant handle that.

If the Sharks players thought Brown's hit was intentional then why didn't someone including the league's player safety department take exception to it?

It's very unfortunate that (as you said) Hurtl's season is over. I didn't hear that part so he must be hurt really bad.

What? Dirtiest player in the league doesn't get a penalty??? I'm so shocked!
- Doaner19


They rescinded the 5 min major that Brown received? I haven't read that so i'm assuming you can share a link?

Karma's a b!tch, Dustin.

There's the class of San Jose right there. It's always great to wish injury on a player

There are a lot of players that I can't stand but I would never wish injury on anyone but to each his own.

Not the point idiot he is a dirty player, playing golf the next day doubt it, you must have been caddying. Its not the result its the intent.

Everyone in the league hates him, is that not enough of a sample for you??

Wow can I get the phone numbers of every player in the league from you? I have some questions I want to ask people.

Nice use of the "I" word and I cannot quote it, but I do remember seeing a report that he was playing golf within a week of some players and the Yotes coaches saying Brown had crippled him for life. Brown is not a dirty player, cause if he was, some enforcer in another team would handle it.

Funny, I was thinking the same thing. Watch Hertl open his stance just before the collision. Maybe he wanted to try and "show up" Brown like he did to that goalie? Or maybe it was what it was -2 players colliding on the ice. All I know is that the other Shart players were not too upset about it since they didnt push the issue.

I have to say that your the worse kind of FAN for this Sport. Being happy about a player getting injured just shows your true colors, And no team needs a fan like you!!

That POS of Torres is by far the worst in the league. Only the scum of the league would sign that ass clown.
