Um feeling good because of how well Niemi played and I think that we sucked the momentum from them.

There is no way Niemi can keep that level of play up for 4 games, im sorry i love the guy but there are only a handful of goalies who can withstand that much pressure before they leave the flood gates open.

If you are hoping for a sweep you better hope the D can figure out a way to make the Sharks work to get in the zone, and not let them take so many shots on goal.

agree with no no....

No way can you expect Niemi to keep up that level of play, our defense needs to step up.

Keith made a few dumb plays (almost gave thornton a breakaway) and Sopel looked scared.

I disagree.....he looked hesitant at almost every play he made.....if his game was so awesome, why did Niemi face so many shots?

so niemi saw so many shots because keith looked hesitant, in your opinion, on almost every play he made???

when in reality he looked great with the puck in his zone. had an assist, was what a +2.

Keith looked awesome on offense no doubt about that, but the whole team looked lost at times on D, they allowed the Sharks to enter their zone at will until the third period when the Hawks finally wore them down enough.

maybe niemi also faced as many hots as he did because of you know the FIVE F****** PP's we had to kill off.

Sopel is just a really good player with out the puck. Doesn't get recognized as much as he should.

yeah since hes always getting beat to the puck this works out for him. he has to be the slowest skater ever.
