Saturday night, the San Jose Sharks proved they are not your ordinary Sharks team.
This team is different. Proven veterans who can score goals and make plays, contributions from younger players, a stable blue-line group, a top-notch goaltender – this team has it all.
With a 1-0 series lead already in hand, the Los Angeles Kings were expected to be a the top of their game and force San Jose into playing A+ hockey to win another at Staples Center, and the Sharks did just that. They played one of their best games of the season when it mattered most.
