SAN JOSE, Calif. -- The San Jose Sharks will take a series win any which way, as long as they finally prevail over their personal boogeymen.
As Sharks head coach Peter DeBoer said Thursday, even if takes Game 7 and double overtime, so be it -- as long as his team moves past the Los Angeles Kings and on to the second round of the Stanley Cup playoffs. Sure, he would have preferred a four-game sweep, but he'll take win No. 4 whenever it comes.
But let's be real, too. The cherry on the sundae is right there for the taking Friday night, starting at 10:30 ET, at Staples Center.
