    You do know what Joe is doing right?

    Taking the pressure off Niemi and the rest of the team and putting all the focus on himself.

    Great move by a smart leader.

    Going to take a hell of a lot more than a tweet to take the real pressure off Nemi and co. All the pressure in the world is on the Sharks tonight. Will be interesting to see how they handle it.

    You know that's not true.

    Everyone will be talking about joe today, not Niemi.

    Brilliant move.

    True, the pressure on the sharks is immense but you better believe Thornton wants to win as bad as anybody.

    It was a calculated move.

    Brilliant move.

    They will still talk Niemi . Their 2 bigger issues are Vlasic still out and starting a goalie whose confidence has to be rattled. Add to that may be McClellan final game as coach of they lose

    Might have been calculated, but it is ineffective, as I browsed a number of hockey sites earlier and NHL.com and didn't see anthing about it until I saw the copy of tweet in this thread. With 3 game 7's today, it's going to take something very controversial to take the pressure off Nemi and his teammates. If anything, Joe recognizing the need to try and take pressure off Nemi and his teammates is more eye-opening than anything. Who knows what the outcome will be tonight, but Sharks aren't in a good place.

    both goalies have made some excellent saves. Let's just say if the same quality of shots were in the Wild/Avs game, the score would 5-5 through the 1st period.
