Why The Lerg Streak Ended.

For 20 episodes straight of the Teal Tinted Glasses Podcast, I have made it a mission to drop the name of Bryan Lerg into each and every show. In episode 23 I made the conscious decision to kill that streak. 

To explain why, I want to begin with why this started in the first place

At the end of last season, the Sharks were in a very bad way. Hope was gone, we were out of the playoffs for the first time in forever and most of the fan base I communicate with was in a generally foul mood. However, for two games, a glimmer of hope showed up named Bryan Lerg.  To me, he represented a possibility that everything could get better. There was not all of the excess baggage that is weighing so heavily on our team. There was no stripping of the C for no good reason, no fighting between Thornton and Doogie Wilson, no reverse sweep. He was a Shark through and through, a veteran that was still new. That is when I started saying something about him. 

For the first three weeks, it was not intentional to be a streak or an ongoing bit on the show. He was the ultimate distraction from disappointment.  Then I realized what was happening and I started to make sure I would work him into every show. It was always meant to be a bit of fun and was done out of respect for the player, and of the idea of hope.

Then it happened. I shared the show with some friends new to hockey and they loved the show but asked why I hate/make fun of "that Lerg guy". This disappointed me to an extreme degree as I realized that I took this player that I truly respect and this idea I believe in so strongly and made it into a running joke. 

There you have it. I killed the streak.  Yes I will still mention Lerg when I get a chance but I refuse to make someone a joke that does not deserve it. Until I find another great and I can't pass up anyways.

Like a toot in an elevator.

This week on Teal Tinted Glasses, Wendell, Ian and Rocket discuss the Sharks recent fan fest and prospect game.  We break down the central division and decide which team is like a toot in an elevator.  In Rapid fire we touch on some Patrick Kane news as well as other happenings in the NHL and Ian absolutely calls out the Los Angeles Kings organization for what he feels is a very disingenuous statement regarding Slava Voynov.

Please buy us coffee

 In this episode, the gang is running on empty, but we still do our best to try to try to put out a great show as the off-season is coming to a close. We discuss the Metro division and lament on their less than stellar potential. Wendell also has an epiphany about placing where teams will exit the plots before the season even begins.
