This was the fourth NHL team to do this.

The Sharks have just hit rock bottom.

You want to talk about perspective? Good Lord. These guys gotta be on suicide watch by this point. What do you even say? When were they last out of the first round? And to drop this one in NHL-historically epic fail proportions? There are no words. Epic, epic fail. McClellan (sp) will be fired over this one.

And the funny thing (not 'ha ha' funny) is that they're loaded with offensive talent. Goes to show there is no secret recipe.

And to answer my own stupid question, the Sharks last won a series.. last year haha.

The Sharks are kind of like us, honestly. They have talent (and probably more than we do), but just CANNOT seem to get over than hump.

The only times they've made it as far as the conference finals in the last decade (twice), they lost 4-0 and 4-1. Not terribly inspiring. Every other time they've been bounced it's been the first or second round. Lot of similarities between the two teams.

How does a team blow a 3-0 lead? Shows a weak mental state of the game. The Kings got in their heads and it was evident all game 7.

We don't know, even we haven't done that.

You can ask Detroit, Pittsburgh, Boston, and now San Jose... we don't suck that bad...



... or do we never go up 3-0?

They lost 4 straight games. Same as us. Same thing in my book.

But LA is only the 2nd team to be down 2-0 one year (to us) and come back and win and then be down 3-0 the next year and come back and win!

The Blues look like Cup champions compared to the Sharks! :lol:
