Do think people should realize while Warso is bad his structure is not what is making our youth timid in o zone. That isn’t structure. Structure is the 2-1-2 forecheck and man on man defense which personally don’t think is good for us.
If I could have one thing for the Sharks right now it would just be play loose and play hard. Don’t care about mistakes just care about skating and playing hard. They aren’t doing that at all right now. Thinking way too long. Grier on the clock here. He locked us in on contracts
Final thoughts on this one. No reason to stay watching this game on Halloween. Players lack jump and have lacked compete for games. Some lines and people have it for spurt but not line after line. Our 4th line vets and some of our younger guys need to step up.
Ryan Warsofsky said he decided tonight to reunite Will Smith and Macklin Celebrini with about a minute and a half left in the second period.
"Obviously, we couldn't generate anything, and we've been trying to work with some things within our lines and try to get some chemistry going. And obviously, it wasn't working, and it was just time."
By the way we all know Warsofsky will say “It wasn’t the line changes, it was about the level of compete we brought to 3rd period” which is a bunch of bullshit. Hopefully @Sheng_Peng pushes back on it.
Final game thoughts:
Smith with a monster 3rd period. Warso says play simple hockey but Warso should make simple decisions. Both Celebrini and Smith need each other right now and that’s okay. They are amazing together when they are playing well. Liked Misa/Marchment/Sherwood
My biggest worries with this team are coaching, Misa,, Stenberg. Stenberg and Misa are #2 picks. Think Stenberg playing amazing this year. However, we need to be patient with him. Misa makes some awful decisions. Can’t drive any offense. Good complement with speed. Warso sucks
One of the worst takes I hear is people complaining about Smith away from Celebrini. Caulfield, Gauthier, Robertson, Connor, Keller, all play with play-driving centers and they are successful. Also people need to stop pocket-watching Smith. 2nd best player rn on team w/5 goals
Overall game sucked until 3rd period.
Bystedt played well.
Stenberg did not have great game. But there will be growing pains.
Marchment can play so shitty but table to turn it on and score.
Misa needs vets around him. Needs Sherwood to match speed.
Will Smith taking over the game. Go figure you put him with Celebrini and scores back to back goals. Not hard to figure out.
Worst vibes surrounding a sharks team since maybe 2024-2025. At least last year the team was skating and was trying in losing streaks. Team has no excuses to be dominated by worst team in league. Askarov should have saved that. Has weak glove hand. Celebrini staying on too long
Safe to say I think Smith experiment with Misa is over. Don’t care about balancing the roster we need to score and unfortunately Smith + Celebrini allows them both to be dangerous. People don’t talk about how Celebrini slows down without Smith too.
