When You Try to Inspire Teammates With a Fight… Remember to Fight

So the Sharks and Ducks squared off last night in Game Six in Anaheim. If you haven’t heard, that one didn’t end well for the Sharks. They were eliminated with a 4-1 defeat but hey, at least they’re taking it well given all their experience in the field of Incredible Playoff Choke Jobs. Oh, they’re not? You don’t say.

But probably the most interesting part of the game came two seconds in when Joe Thornton and Ryan Getzlaf fought off the opening face off, trying to inspire their respective teams. Well, it’s hard to say either one of them did anything inspiring, since I didn’t see a fight. Yeah, they dropped the gloves. But after that it was a lot of circling, clutching and grabbing. Maybe they were just practicing their ballroom dancing skillz. So guys, next time you try to get the blood flowing with a good ol’ donneybrook remember to, um, you know, fight
