  1. Honestly I'd fire the current head coach try to get joel quenneville. The current coach is not good doesn't have the feel when to change up lines and from what he said about the team not knowing how to win in third is also an impact on his coaching ability also put mack celebrini 1st line you want him to get better and thats the best way. I've seen him use his IQ and the other dumb player have no idea he wants them to cycle and rush.

  2. I was eager to watch the game and the moment I heard Georgiev was starting I turned it off. Life is stressful enough and sure enough that 2nd goal told me everything I needed to know. He completely guessed on that second goal at that angle. He just leaves his 5 hole wide open and extends his glove hand and the puck is nowhere near going glove high it’s disgusting and malpractice as a goalie. It’s obvious he cannot see the puck at all. Such a simple save he botches it. I feel bad for him but he gotta get replaced

  3. 4:01 exactly Muhk lost it but it was still a play to stop the puck from being passed in between 3 of our guys and then Georgiev had his chance. We need Nico Sturm back he is the only one I see diving to stop pucks and actually plays hardcore defense in moments. We need a defensive monster

  4. One thing no one brings up about askarov is keeping him below 25 games played so he's eligible for the calder next season

  5. Can you do a video on your top 5 sharks trades/targets?
    What would a Zegras or Pederson trade look like?
    What could the sharks get back for Granlund, one of the goalies, the RFAs or any of the expiring contracts?

  6. I think at this point Askarov has outgrown the AHL, and he's too good to really benefit much from playing for the Cuda. Since he's the future for teal, I think for his development he should be kept on the Sharks roster. It doesn't have to be a #1 – #2 traditional situation; he could trade games with whichever of Vanecek and Georgiev that stays on the roster. Like maybe 72/25 or 60/40, so whoever plays with him gets a bit more than just backup and back-to-back game time. If he goes cold it could be changed up to maybe 50/50. I do think one of V. and G. should be waived and sent down – before the VGK game I would have said clearly G., but after that game I'm not so sure… let him play a few more games to see if this was a fluke or if he's on the up swing; if so G. should remain on the roster IMO – he's a much higher value player than V. if he can get back to his past performance.

    Re Celebrini: I think he had among his worst, if not the worst, game so far. Hey, he's human. I'd cut back on his ice time, maybe even bench him for a game – just to nip any burnout in the bud. He clearly wasn't fully present against the VGK. He's still a very good player, among the best if not the best, but he's only 18 and might need a mental break.

  7. As an Av and Shark fan, I was simultaneously excited and bummed about the Georgiev trade. I feel bad for the Sharks, but I'm happy for the Avs and for Blackwood to play for a contender. Georgiev is so streaky. He can play 10 games with a .940 SV% and a 1.2GAA, and then the next 5 games he will have a .740SV% and 6.25GAA. His best seasons, he had to play 75% of the games, he does best when you give him constant support and 4 out of every 5 games. But for some reason he hasn't gotten his stuff together.

  8. Alexander “Four”giev. He’s given up at least 4 in every game that have seen him play…
    Against Vegas tho, he actually played really well… still have up 4, kinda

  9. Georgiev has shown he can be a solid goalie. I think the avs just overworked him the past two years, especially without a solid backup. I think there was a point last season where they played him 12+ games in a row.
