No one is freaking out, i was just not expecting the Sharks to come out like that in the first game and post 1 goal all night. Even one that was as awkward as Ryan Clowe's.<br /><br />I still feel the Sharks will win this series, no doubt, especially the way Nabby is playing. But the lack of contribution from the 1st-line surprised me.<br /><br />No one is panicking, i just expected more.semmler22https://www.blogger.com/profile/17847044125332771632noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7839215523031254716.post-88165755726053004692010-04-15T11:32:52.484-07:002010-04-15T11:32:52.484-07:00I don't think this game compares to the Anahei...I don't think this game compares to the Anaheim series meltdown from a year ago - not even close. The Sharks came out ready to play this year, could/should have scored on their many chances with an out-of-position Anderson on many of their chances but didn't. The huge difference this year compared to last year was the heart and drive everyone had. Last year, the team looked flat and were coasting. This year, every line wasp laying every shift hard. Even Joe went to the net! That never happens!<br /><br />I think the Sharks are fine - you can't win every game in the playoffs, even if you are the number one seed playing the number eight seed. Stop freaking out and STOP comparing this to last year's series. Out of the four games played last night, only one of the higher seeds won their game. You have to expect every series to go to seven games.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
