Biggest What If: Reverse Sweep

The San Jose Sharks are no longer in the league's basement, but they've still got work to do if they want to remain on the up-and-up. Sie Morley (Fear the Fin, SB Nation NHL) and Kyle Demetrius (Fear the Fin) return from the holiday weekend to pinpoint the improvements made in the 3-1 victory over the Calgary Flames. It's a short episode today and Sie is sick, so apologies for having to listen to their deep post-hacking-up-a-lung voice. We'll be back tomorrow to preview the game against the Carolina Hurricanes.Follow the podcast on Twitter @LockedOnSharks! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Kyle Demetrius (Fear the Fin) is off celebrating fake (Canadian) Thanksgiving, so Sie Morley (Fear the Fin, SB Nation NHL) borrowed the format of a very funny NBA podcast called HORSE for this episode. Kyle tells the story of Tomas Hertl's four-goal game and Joe Thornton's infamous creation of the "rooster trick" in That Actually Happened (with a bonus segment on how Thornton's comments on Hertl's showboating came to light in the first place). Then for 3-on-3, we rank the three best videos put out by the San Jose Sharks and three worst acting performances by a hockey player. This one gets weird. We'll be back tomorrow with the Calgary recap.Give the podcast a follow @LockedOnSharks! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

We take a brief look toward Sunday night when the Sharks will host the Calgary Flames and attempt to start a streak. There's plenty of Patty Marleau talk, and yes, we absolutely ate out words.

The San Jose Sharks are in Chicago, where they will attempt to get their first win under their belts in their fifth game so far this season. Sie Morley (Fear the Fin, SB Nation NHL) and Kyle Demetrius (Fear the Fin) break down the roster moves made by the Sharks and the weird ways they parallel the Blackhawks. We also make way too many comparisons between Doug Wilson signing players and dating, hoping that we won't have to do a walk of shame come June.Be sure to check out the podcast on Twitter, @LockedOnSharks!

Sie Morley (Fear the Fin, SB Nation NHL) and Kyle Demetrius (Fear the Fin) take a hard look at the Game 4 loss to the Nashville Predators and really analyze -- oh, who are we kidding? You're here for the Patrick Marleau talk and we give it to you. We weigh the pros and cons of signing another 40-year-old and what that could mean for the future of an organization now spending to the cap ceiling just to be at the bottom of the standings, including players who may see their time in teal ending.Check out the podcast on Twitter, @LockedOnSharks!

In today's episode, Sie Morley (Fear the Fin, SB Nation NHL) and Kyle Demetrius (Fear the Fin) make a horrifying discovery: Nashville style pizza, which may or may not be a real thing. Actually, this episode starts out strong with the pizza talk, as Kyle refuses to accept that tavern cut pizza is actually good. There's also talk about country music, arena names, and Sie sings a jingle Kyle doesn't recognize two different times. Isn't this supposed to be a hockey podcast?You can find the podcast on Twitter @LockedOnSharks! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

This week, Sie Morley (Fear the Fin, SB Nation NHL) and Kyle Demetrius (Fear the Fin) discuss balancing their disappointment in the San Jose Sharks' abysmal start to the season with the knowledge that the season is long and anything could happen. We cover the games against the Vegas Golden Knights and the Anaheim Ducks, eventually wrapping things up with a way to salvage the season for ourselves and a challenge for Sharks fans to keep things positive, no matter how much we would like to sink into the doom and gloom of going 0-3.Give the podcast a follow on Twitter @LockedOnSharks!

The San Jose Sharks have a back-to-back slate of Pacific Division rivalry games this weekend and Sie Morley (Fear the Fin, SB Nation NHL) and Kyle Demetrius (Fear the Fin) are sick of talking about the Vegas Golden Knights, so we did something a little different: answering your questions about the Knights and the Ducks ahead of Games 2 and 3. We discuss 90s logos versus now (and Kyle learns that a logo is not synonymous with a sweater), potential trade targets for Doug Wilson to start planning his scams, and how we're still confused about Dalton Prout existing on an NHL roster. Oh, and did you hear that Erik Karlsson is a father? We're very excited about that, too.Be sure to check out the podcast on Twitter, @LockedOnSharks. Learn more about your ad choices.
