I wouldn't want to play them, though the Wings should be able to take care of them in 5 or 6. They are a strong team in general, just had a horrible start to the season.

Not if they shoot stick side high. Sharks keep shooting for the five hole, but Hiller plays low, so it just hits him in the chest. I can clearly see this, yet they keep going 5 hole, just don't get it.

Sharks are just depressing in the playoffs. They haven't played well since the all star break, and they can't put the damn puck in the net. They did better tonight than game 1, but they have a ways to go. Playoff hockey comes down to special teams. Sharks were 3rd in the league on the power play, and are a combined 0 for 12 this series. Pronger isn't going to stop cross checking if it doesn't cost his team. Not at all surprised by what is happening, just disappointed.
