Three Points From Setoguchi Not Enough To Carry Sharks

The San Jose Sharks fell to the Nashville Predators at HP Pavilion in Overtime, 4 - 3.

Devin Setoguchi had two goals and one assist in the game. He tied an San Jose Sharks record with 10 shots on goal. The Gooch also had several breakaways that Dan Ellis stopped Setoguchi on. Ellis had 54 saves on 57 shots in the game. He was the only player on the Predators playing on his game. Unfortunately, Setoguchi couldn't shoulder the whole weight of the team. A weak performance from Brian Boucher ended up being the Achilles heel for the Sharks who went 1 for 8 on the power play.

In tonight's game, Devin had 19:16 of ice time, two goals on 10 shots, one assist and ended up with a +2 rating.

After tonight's game, Setoguchi has tallied 9 goals, 8 assists in 17 games. Notably scoring one point per game. On the season, he's a +6 rating with an average of 15:59 of ice time.

In retrospect, Sidney Crosby only has 5 goals this season and is a +5 on an average of 22:22 of ice time.

Voting Begins On November 12th

Just a reminder. Voting for the NHL All-Star Game begins on November 12th.

Welcome To "Vote For The Gooch"

Welcome To "Vote For The Gooch". I hope that many of you in the Teal Nation will support this effort trying to get Devin Setoguchi into the All-Star Game.

Many people remember Vancouver's bid to send Rory Fitzpatrick to the All-Star Game two years ago. This isn't like that. That was a mockery of a player who didn't deserve to be in the game. This is about seeing one of the top scorers in the league this year in our backyard and making sure he gets his time to shine in the NHL All-Star Game.

Any one who has been watching the Sharks this year has been seeing what Devin has been contributing to the team. He's taken a lot of the weight off of Patty and Jumbo Joe by rising to a great offensive threat to the Sharks' opponent.

I'll be posting after every game to update his stats, and once voting begins, I'll be trying to track the voting tally to the best of my ability. Once voting has started, be sure to stay tuned for the link to the voting.

Let's Go Sharks.
