As difficult as it was for the San Jose Sharks season to end with a loss in Game 6 of the Stanley Cup Final, the outcome came with mixed emotions for the teal clad and their fans.
While it’s difficult to admit, the Pittsburgh Penguins ended as very worthy Stanley Cup champions and finished as clearly the best team in hockey following their 3-1 win.
Unlike in Game 5, when the Sharks came out of the gates the much better and more desperate team scoring two goals in the first four minutes, the Penguins set the tone early in Game 6.
