Sharks hire Detroit assistant as new coach

Posted by admin on 12th, 2008

The San Jose Sharks have hired a new head coach.  Todd McLellan, formerly an assistant coach with the Stanley Cup winning Detroit Red Wings will be formerly announced as the new head coach on Thursday.

“It’s a very good feeling,” McLellan said in a statement released by the team. “From the first moment Doug called to the moment he offered the job, I felt comfortable. I think the Sharks have done a tremendous job. You don’t get that close to 50 wins for a number of years in a row without a lot of talent. It’s a matter of getting over the hump. There are some real parallels between the Wings and the Sharks.”

The Sharks hope that McLellan, who has experience with cup winning teams will help take the Sharks all the way.

Game 6 Preview - Red Wings @ Penguins

Posted by admin on 5th, 2008

NHL - Detroit Red Wings/Pittsburgh Penguins Box Score Wednesday June 4, 2008 - Yahoo! Sports

Just 5 minutes until puck drop in game 6 of the Stanley Cup Finals.  The Detroit Red Wings are looking for the win that will give them the Cup.  The Penguins trying to force a series deciding game 7.

Keys to the game:

  • M.A. Fleury repeating his stellar performance that helped win game 6.  If he can, the Penguins can make a game of this.
  • Pittsburgh need to shut down the Red Wings top line. If Zetterberg and Datsyuk are free to skate on open ice they will do damage. The Penguins need to shut that line down.
  • Evgeni Malkin.  He was quiet in most games of this series, but got the assist on Sykoras game winner in game 6.  If Malkin can get on a roll, he could be the difference maker.

Game on!
