Of cupcakes and hockey sticks: Sharks say they have routines, but not superstitions

SAN JOSE — The first rule about having superstitions is to not to refer to them as being superstitions.

They’re called routines, in case you were curious.

“Superstition has this stigma about it,” Sharks winger Evander Kane said. “Superstitions are fine. Everybody has them, whether they admit it or not.”

The Sharks have won six straight going into Tuesday’s home game against the Edmonton Oilers. They’ve completely turned around their season in that time, going from a team that was at the bottom of the Western Conference standings to one that has rejoined the pack in the bunched up Pacific Division.
