SAN JOSE – As we predicted midway through February, the San Jose Sharks are going to be battling with the Calgary Flames for first place in the division right down to the wire. Heading into the fourth and final game of their current homestand, San Jose sits on the cusp of taking over the top seed, just one point behind Calgary in the standings.
So, of course, there’s one question on everyone’s minds: Who might the Sharks face in the first round of the playoffs?
As many already know, the Las Vegas Golden Knights are the likely opponent should San Jose remain in second place.
