Happy Shark Week everyone!?

Question

due to it being shark week (woo hoo!) i feel there should be an increase of san jose questions
so

1. I heard in an interview that San Jose now has very high expectations of setoguchi for next season. The sniper has often underperformed compared to what his potential is. Now that he has a 1 year deal and a thin wire between staying and being let go next season, how do you think he shall perform this season?

2. With Rob Blake retired leaving a hole in defence, how will you expect the sharks to cover it up? i have heard many kaberle rumors involving them...

3. expectations of charlie coyle?

BQ: most memorable experience dealing with a shark?

living in florida i have a few, but when my surfing my buddy grabbed a 3ft hammerhead with his bare hands and brought it to shore...crazy, i was scared and swam to shore as soon as i saw the fin (btw sharks look alot bigger when they are 5 feet away from you in the water)

Answer 1

I love shark week. And tornado week. And NCIS marathons. I have no real life.



I apologize in advance for my lame answers.



1. Better than last year. Just a guess because I have no real insight on him.



2. I have heard the Kaberle rumors too. I will just say no one can truly fill Rob Blake's shoes.



3. Again, no insight because i don't know who he is. I like a guy who has the same letter for first and last names, though. C.C. Pretty cool.



BQ: We had a 30 gallon fish tank once. It had a ton of sharks in it. One red tail kept finding a way to leap out even though there was a cover on the tank. We were watching TV one night, he leaped out and before my husband could get up to put him back in the cat ate him. Closest I ever want to get to a shark encounter like yours.

Answer 2

1. I don't feel Setoguchi has underperformed at all. He was injured last year, and that accounts for his dip in production. I'd expect a 30 goal season from him. If he does too well, it could hurt the Sharks in the off season as they may not be able to keep him. They still have to resign Joe (possibly) and it will be interesting to see what they do with Setoguchi. My feeling is he expected a big raise, and it didn't come hence the one year deal.



2. It's hard to say. I'm still scratching my head why they didn't go after a defenseman on the market. They seemed to miss some good opportunities (look at what the Penguins did).



3. Way to soon to judge Coyle. I'd home he can be a break out star, but it's so hit and miss you never know.



My most memorable experience was catching a puck thrown into the crowd by Nabby. Lot of haters, but I'll miss that guy in net.

Answer 3

1. trade bait for other teams perhaps? lot of value

2. marc staal perhaps?

3. quiet year

bq. i shook douglas murray's, rob blake's, brian boucher's, dan boyle's, joe pavelski's, and ryane clowe's hands.
