Since the Sharks began playing in the NHL, it's been my dream to see them play in the Cup finals. (Let's not talk about the '08-'09 season because this will turn into a rant.)

This year they are kicking @ss. Anyone else think they can make it to the Finals?

Go Sharks!

NO... looks like Chicago will be representing the West this year... obviously the Sharks will choke like always. Don't feel bad though, I'm a Wings fan and they are so banged up they may not make the playoffs, although if they get healthy they will be a team to watch.
My Clubs: Callaway FT-i Tour LCG 9.5° w/ Matrix Ozik Xcon 6 stiff; Sonartec GS Tour 14° w/ Graphite Design Red Ice 70 stiff; Adams Idea Pro 2h(18°) & 3h(20°) w/ Aldila VS Proto 80 stiff; Adams Idea Pro Forged 4-PW w/ TT Black Gold stiff; Cleveland CG12 DSG RTG 52°-10° & 58°-10°; Odyssey...

Sharks have a great team, I'm not a fan but they are solid... Their past few years playoff performances will be something they will have to mentally overcome... Thornton is an outstanding player... they have the physical talent to make it to the Stanley Cup Finals that's for sure...

I agree, Chicago looks tough.

My Dallas Stars, not so much.

They always do well in the regular season and then fold like a cheap tent in the playoffs. Can't figure out what it is, but I would never bet with them in the playoffs. You'd think that sooner or later they have to come through though.

As for their top line, Thorton, Heatley and Marleau, I look forward to seeing them on Team Canada at the Olympics. I think Thorton and Heatley are locks for the team with Marleau on the fence. It gets announced on Wednesday.

Wednesday???? Awesome!!! I'm going to the game that night against the Caps. Marleau is tied for 2nd for most goals in the league. Team Canada would be stupid to not keep this hot line together. Sharks vs. Hawks will be a good Western Finals.

The Sharks have a good team, but IMO this is Chicago's year to win the West.

Watched the Stars and Hawks tonight, very entertaining game... Stars got lucky on a couple of goals and won 5-4, they need some good bounces... Hawks are solid though, Toews, Kane, Sharp, Seabrook, et al... Strong team, expect them to make a serious run for the Cup

I've gotta agree with San Jose.

I think a lot of people are still scratching their heads on that trade... Thornton's a franchise player

I disagree. Big Joe is a perfect Assistant. But a franchise is more like Marleau, Crosby, or Ovechkin. Boston made the mistake of thinking he was more than he was. In San Jose, he gets to play the way he wants. No pressure to be more than that.

      Do Upgrade Shafts Provide a Significant Performance Gain?

      By WUTiger · Posted

      For someone with a very consistent swing speed and ball strike, upgrades may improve performance. For everyday golfers, probably not. I'm a rather odd player. I usually get best performance from basic pro or tour heads, but with lighter stock shaft from the model's standard driver set up. (Yes, current EXS is an exception.) When I get a full driver fitting, I usually try a couple of modest upgrade  (not super magic) shafts. Most of the time upgrade gives a couple of extra yards, or 10 yards less. Remember this about stock shafts: They are matched to a particular driver model to fit the type of player likely to adopt that model. Also, most OEMs offer a variety of stock shafts in their drivers. Test for which one works best. And, the final decider...

      Hybrid Advice

      By WUTiger · Posted

      Uh, seeing you're having trouble with hit-and-miss performance from inherited clubs... Get Fitted! IF the 910H pair don't work, swap them out. Also, only two degrees separation in loft is not much. You might consider a 4W (much more reliable than a 3W) plus hybrid. This would give more distance separation than two Hs. For hybrid, get one you can hit... Maybe a more benevolent 4H. Quite often I try to brand match my bridge clubs (FWs and Hs), and my irons and wedges... but not always. Whatever works!

      5 Wood or Hybrid

      By WUTiger · Posted

      Like others have said, get fitted. Since 2011, I have played some combination of 4W + 7W. I had a Cobra 3H and 4H a couple of years back, and would swap out the 7W for a 3H in cold months (keep out of cold wind, and rough thinner for wayward drives.) The 7W matched up with yardage often with 3H; the current 4H goes almost as long as 7W, but has a lower trajectory. 4H also bumped out 4i in last bag redo; I learned to hit stinger with 4H so that's my driving iron on tight holes with shallow landing area. Again, a side-by-side test will tell you which way to go. If 5W or 3H is meh, keep the 7W. Also, are you looking to replace the 7W with a 5W or 3H, or add a second bridge club (5W or 3H) to your bag?

      Workout Before or After Playing a Round of Golf (2022)

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Makes sense and aligns with other literature. Static stretching, especially for longer durations, can impede performance in strength and power activities. I would not want to do like hamstring, quad, and calf stretches then go immediately sprint. To me that sounds like a terrible Idea. I would rather start off walking, then jogging, then running, then ramp up to sprinting.  To me, static stretching isn't even a warmup activity. I like the term warmup; you want to get some exertion going before the activity.      a { text-decoration: none; color: #464feb; } tr th, tr td { border: 1px solid #e6e6e6; } tr th { background-color: #f5f5f5; }

      Where Is Your Next Golf Trip Going to Be?

      By jsgolfer · Posted

      Going to Florida for the usual February golf trip, and with our current weather, that date won't get here soon enough. Heading to Augusta GA for the Tuesday Master's practice round, will definitely get some golf in while I'm in the area for a few days. Hope to be able to catch up with @coachjimsc if he's around. Then it's back to Scotland first of July.  Playing 7 new courses, can't wait for that.  Then somewhere after that is the Rhode Island CC Member-Guest and then my normal October golf trip to Myrtle Beach.
