Maybe Torts is using Valli to make the team respond and play better.

Good morning all.

I’m guessing Valli starts tonight because Sharks are out of conference.

Zipay also reports that Vally gets the start. Also, MDZ is here to stay, no big surprise there.

Here is the MDZ link:

Why Valli? They had regular rest for today and an extra day for Thursday. Unless Henrik is banged up from the crease runnings I don’t see why he needs to rest tonight.

Maybe the Sharks put in their backup tonight. They are in the midst of a two week long roadtrip. Then again they have some easier games against SE teams after tonight so keep Nabokov in against a tough opponent and spell him for the “easier” games.

We have started off the season much better than anyone anticipated, but they way we have won our last two games has made me feel a bit uneasy. If we play the way that we played the last two games against the Sharks tonight, they are going to shove the puck right up our A**es! I know they have started off the season on a so so note, but they are still a lethal team, and one I consider a TOP team in the West. If we fart around with the puck, or let them spend time in our zone, it will end up in the back of our net. We need to play smart disciplined hockey tonight. We need to own the puck and keep it out of out zone, which means, being the faster team to the puck, and winning those battles along the boards. I think tonight, is the first REAL test of the season for our squad. I am not saying our start is a fluke, at all. But what I am saying is that, this team knows it did not play that well for the last two games, and Torts has pointed that out. Now we will see if this team can keep it together, correct things that need to be corrected, and skate was a very talented club, in the San Jose Sharks. I am confident we can beat them, but we won’t if we play like we played for most of the last two games. It really is as simple as that.
