SAN JOSE -- So now we know the answer to the question. Is it possible for an entire hockey arena to hold its breath for almost 14 minutes?
The answer is yes. Because that's what happened Wednesday night at SAP Center as the Sharks held on by the thinnest of fins to beat the Los Angeles Kings 3-2 in Game 4 of the Western Conference playoff series. The Sharks, up 3-1, can advance with one more win.Let's be blunt. When the Sharks took a seemingly safe 3-0 lead early in the third period and then saw it quickly diminished to a one-goal advantage after the Kings scored twice within four minutes .
