Comments on: Desperate to kill penalties, San Jose adds Joe Thornton to the mix http://prohockeytalk.nbcsports.com/2012/04/19/desperate-to-kill-penalties-san-jose-adds-joe-thornton-to-the-mix/ ProHockeyTalk on NBCSports.com Tue, 18 Jun 2013 06:59:32 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.com/ By: sharks123 http://prohockeytalk.nbcsports.com/2012/04/19/desperate-to-kill-penalties-san-jose-adds-joe-thornton-to-the-mix/comment-page-1/#comment-61933 Fri, 20 Apr 2012 05:27:45 +0000 http://prohockeytalk.nbcsports.com/?p=250861#comment-61933 I know you think he’s 0 for 3, I actually heard you the first time. Sharks have fatal flaws and Joe isn’t one of them. I don’t care about the regular season, when the PK sucks as bad as it does you have to do something. At this point there is no great plan. It is what it is.

This year

Like I said, this should have been done during the regular season
Not now

And oh yes
He is still 0 for 3

His game has changed a ton the last 3 years.
Have you even seen their PK? Not doing this is the bad idea.

Tried of just watching him skate around for the most part, but the defense needs to pull itself together and stop all the stupid rebound shots the Blues have been getting,and Neimi holds a part in that as well. Go Sharks!!!! Please pick up a W at the Tank tonight!

You do not try stuff like this in the playoffs
You had 82 regular season games for this and Joe has had a decade of showing that he is not suited for it.

You need passion, heart and desire to be great on the PK
And Joe is 0 for 3
