Yep it was Stefan, they played together in Atlanta I think. I am indeed thinking of two separate fuckups.

Why couldn't Turco be just a little bit better. :smith:

I want to like him, he seems like a swell guy.

He was (is) one of the best puckhandling goalies in the league. I think those 2 years of horrible, lovely defenses in Dallas broke him.

Things haven't been the same since Zubov left and Lehtinen got hurt, they've been such an engine for the team they didn't know how to go without it, Marty broke for sure, he can apply pressure better than almost everyone else if he has the room to do it, and over the past few years his judgement calls about having time & space have been iffy at best.

He got to be on the cover of NHL 2K6, though!

Coming from an old man, I can tell you that judgement about time and space is the first thing to go. :D

As far as too much man penalties:

The refs typically seem to vary on how much leeway they give teams in terms of line changes. I know playing beer league, I've been called for too much man because I came out on the ice "too early", basically the guy I was changing with was about 20-25 feet from our bench and I hopped out there. The puck came nowhere near me, but the ref said I came out too early.

So, the last Sharks game I went to, I watched when guys come out onto the ice and it seems like they're out there way before the guy coming off is near the bench. This is especially true with defensemen, since they're mostly behind the play. So is there an official ruling on this or is it like travelling in basketball?

Thanks again! I'm going to get to reading the OP in detail now.

Good choice in team too. There are a few of us Sharks fans on here. If you have any questions about the history of the team and what not, feel free to ask.

Holy poo poo, in I don't know how many years of watching hockey I've never noticed the referee force-field lines where they talk to the off-ice dudes. My mind is blown.

I don't have the gif but the one with Joe Thornton giving Henrik Sedin the stink finger outside of the ref crease is amazing.

I have a question about the Edmonton/Columbus game from today. There was a goal waved off during the game, and I don't know why. I was in a loud area and couldn't hear the announcers. Was it called off because his stick was so high off the ice, or what was the deal there?

It's a reviewable play, and they usually get it right 99% of the time. I recall some team (maybe it was Columbus) who got jobbed by it a while back.
