Ryan Leong: The Sharks fail to close out the Kings

All this whining about a hit from a team that employs the head seeking elbow better known as raffi torres! Classic!

You just get that feeling the Kings are going to come back and take this!

The thought has crossed my mind

I gotta say though...it's been a great series! Not sure what happened to the Kings the first two games but they've rebounded well. Two big hard hitting teams just grinding it out! Fans are getting there money's worth!

Those who attended Game 5 disagree unless they're rooting For LA

Haha! I guess you can say the same would go for L.A. fans in game 3.
I guess what I'm trying to say is....from a miserable Leafs fan's perspective......it's pretty darn good hockey! Something I'm not sure if I'll ever see in my life time from my team!

Too many soft calls on both teams last night. That Kopitar (goaltender interference) call was weak...

We certainly have a series now although not one that I think anyone could have predicted.

Dan Boyle did look like $H!T!! he pushed the play terribly, couldnt control the puck if it was a beachball, and he did elbow a king in the back of the head as he skated by his own net. not a fan of him so far this playoffs.

Stalock should play game 6 and should have started game 5

Did I hear that right? Did some at the SAP boo the Sharks off the ice? If so: c'mon.

The Kings got away with some hits that should have been penalties but the strategy worked as the Sharks frustrated themselves into spending time in the sin bin.

Really? I don't think we were watching the same game. If you throw out the coincidentals with Demers and King, the Sharks only had one penalty that wasn't a trip and that was Marleau's slash, after a clean hit by Brown. The Sharks didn't get penalties because they were mad, they got them because they weren't moving their feet and tripped guys up. Besides, they had three powerplays in the third off of pretty weak calls, so this really isn't an issue.

Jared Stoll is a cheap piece of sh1t. Someone needs to punch him in the face.

Didn't get to watch this game, kind of glad I didn't. Sharks need to end this in 6 or it's Kings in 7

They've been in this situation before though, I can think of 4 3-0 series leads the Sharks have had in recent years, 2 of them ended 4-2 IIRC.

At the end of game 4 looks like Raffi Torres was able to get him. Raffi dropped his gloves and started throwing at stoll when the linesman had him tied up defenseles, such a bad ass move by raffi

Yeah, what a guy.

I love watching tanner pearson play. Don't know why he hasn't played the whole series. He's fast, strong, responsible defensively, and extremely pesty on the forecheck .

If i were a sharks fan, I think I would want stalock in net for game 6. Not sure what you guys generally think, but he seems very confident in there, while niemi has been flopping around like a fish

While I don't have any major complaints about every game being broadcast by the Sharks regular team, I do have to say that the overall coverage is terrible, and by that I mostly mean the producers. The broadcasters do their best to appear neutral and for that I have to give them credit.

Instead of breaking down a play step by step and showing different angles, they just ask Hedican what he thinks while showing a random player or coach at the bench.

It makes me grateful for the Fox Sports West production team.

I give the kings credit for following their game plan. They weren't excellent but they didn't need to be against a lazy looking teams.
The sharks were booed last night and they deserved it. Only our 4th line, Boyle and Stalock deserved any kudos. I would of benched both joes in the third to send my message if I were the coach.

Stalock scares me. He has played great the last 2 games and if the Sharks don't start him in game 6 they deserve to lose....I hope they lose anyway but you know what I mean

Yes...yes you did. And I don't blame the fans in the arena. The effort they are able to put forth and what we have seen in the last game is such a vast difference, its almost like they called it in. First two games the Sharks were hitting and finishing checks. This past game maybe a tap here or there but nothing that I would say compared to game one or two. So yes, they get a big BOOOOOOO. I ended up booing a bit at my 125" screen in my man cave watching that game.

Too bad. They've played really well and still have a game lead against a really tough opponent. They could use the support of the fans. There are a lot of guys playing on fumes out there and that extra boost could really help instead of the knife in the back that the fans provided at the end of the 3rd.

Pathetic, actually.

Do you know HOW MUCH $$$$ It cost's to watch the CRAP The Sharks put out last night???That's the Reason I gave up my season Tickets after 20 years,Whether they are Playing the King's or Florida(The price is the same)..And the Playoff's cost more $$$$....Too hear McClellan & his EXCUSES Every year is getting OLD as well.You don't hear Sutter making Excuses after a loss(He makes Adjustments).If LA Win's game 6,They will take game 7 in SJ..Good teams(Like Boston)Finish off teams when they have the chance..
