Marc-Edouard Vlasic knocks puck into his own net (Video)

Found April 14, 2012 on Holdout Sports: Yardbarker Blogger Network
PLAYERS: Marc-Edouard Vlasic,  Antti Niemi,  Vladimir Sobotka
TEAMS: San Jose Sharks,  St. Louis Blues
San Jose Sharks defenseman Marc-Edouard Vlasic had a bad start to Saturday's playoff game against the St. Louis Blues when he accidentally put the puck in his own net, giving the Blues the first goal of the game.

Sharks goaltender Antti Niemi stopped a shot on goal from Blues forward Vladimir Sobotka, but the puck trickled behind him into the goal crease. Vlasic was merely trying to clear the puck from the crease, but Vlasic ended up tapping the puck right into the net.



Vlasic must have been feeling a little sour after that one. Sorry, couldn't resist.

H/T Puck Daddy.

Video: Sharks defenseman scores on his own goal

Via NESN.com  |  April 15, 2012
Saturday just wasn't San Jose's day. And it certainly wasn't Marc-Edouard Vlasic's day. The Sharks fell 3-0 to the Blues in Game 2 of their Wester Conference quarterfinal series, but they should've known they were in for a long night after the way St. Louis got on the board. Less than two minutes into the game, Blues forward Vladimir Sobotka threw a shot on net...

Sharks fans, avert your eyes. This is the type of mistake that reminds San Jose fans of all the years of early playoff exits and chokes, and one that probably had LBS writer Sawley Vickrey throwing chairs across his living room like Bob Knight. Early in the first period of Game 2 between the Blues and Sharks in St. Louis, a slap shot from Vladimir Sobotka trickled past Sharks goalie...

from David Pollak of Working the Corners at the Mercury News, Sharks coach Todd McLellan hinted that there might be some lineup changes coming for Game 3. But of course he wasn’t about to signal what they might be. Any alterations, though, likely would be about getting a bigger team on the ice to confront the Blues’ physical play. Obviously among McLellan’s options are Michal...

If you missed the first couple of minutes of this game, you missed the whole theme, and might very well have been the winning goal. San Jose was ready to take the second game in the playoff series, while St Louis was more prepared, angrier and ready to stop them. Marc-Edouard Vlasic, with a slight mistake, a slip of his stick, pushed the puck into his own goal, making the score...

Does Brent Burns get the Shanahammer

Former Wild defenseman Brent Burns threw this elbow to the back of the head area of Blues forward Scott Nichol. Now the Vice President of Players Safety, Brendan Shanahan has a decision to make, does he suspend Burns who does have received supplemental discipline when he was suspended in November of 2010. Should Burns be suspended for this hit or does Shanny let this one slide...

All that talk of cheap shots, sucker punches, cracked helmets and broken noses stayed behind in St. Louis. The San Jose Sharks and St. Louis Blues know there is far too much at stake in their first-round playoff series to worry about settling scores when the teams resume play in Game 3 on Monday night with the series tied at a game apiece. ''This time of year there'...

Cam Gore: Blues even the series at one with shut-out win

Via HockeyBuzz  |  April 14, 2012
It was a 3-0 win for St. Louis and it was done Blues style; by scoring early and then protecting the lead the rest of the way with hard-nosed defense and efficient net minding. St. Louis scored an unlikely goal a minute and a half into the game that stood up to be the game winner. Sharks defenseman Marc-Edouard Vlasic swatted at the puck trying to clear it from the crease area, but toed it...

Elbows, Elbows Everywhere

Last night was a game, a few rounds of WWE and MMA all mixed into one. The Sharks looked gassed, but managed to split the series and are heading back to San Jose tied 1-1. Considering how they looked last night, I'll take it. Nemo stood on his head once again, keeping the Sharks in the game when they struggled. It could have been a lot worse. The Sharks played relatively well...
