sidvicious02 you know your hockey. Most Sharks fans hated Rathje, they are ignorant. Because he is a big guy, they expected him to be more physical. What they didn't realize is that he did a great job neutralizing real estate. The coaches always put him on the opponets best players.

He got booed almost every game, many people jumped on the "Rathje sucks" badwagon, we miss him now. It's too bad, he is a very good defenseman. Hopefully he'll get the recognition he deserves in Philly, where the fans are more knowledegable.
