I know this is a Jets forum, but I got back from the Devils game about 1/2 hour ago and am so pissed off about it. We were up 2-0 late in the 2nd period, and the Sharks scored 2 goals about a minute apart to tie it. The first goal by Joe Thornton went through Moose's legs. I heard that it was offsides too. 2nd goal was scored by Ryan Clowe.
Then, in the 3rd period, we got a goal by Clarkson with about 6 or 7 minutes left. The Sharks pulled Niemi and they tied with 32 seconds left. Then the game went to a shootout. On the first shot Kovalchuk scored on a deke. Then, in the 2nd round when the Sharks shot, Handzus hit the post, then the puck came back and hit Hedberg's back, and went in. Elias I believe got stopped on the next shot and then Clowe won the game for them.
Blowing a 2 goal lead, letting them tie the game with 30 seconds left, and then going up in the shoot and still losing. It's hard to think of a worse way to lose than that.
As a sidenote, I did see some Sharks fans there. Most of which lived in New Jersey. One fan actually said that he went to the Devils-Kings last week and saw 2 guys wearing Jets jerseys. The crowd there was probably between 12,000-14,000. Should definitely have been better though.
I'll be going to the Jets-Devils game in 2 weeks, if anyone is going, then reply on this thread or something and I'll try to meet you there.
