I don't get Center Ice, but from the highlights it appeared to be the
best game I have seen by far (missed van and nash). They were flying.
Using their speed.

Maybe, they read our NG. :-)

Much better than all the other games. Now, can they repeat this with
some consistency? The Sharks have size and speed to overmatch most
and play equally with anybody. Just have to have their heads in ALL
the games, ALL the time, not just when they feel like it.

Frankly, I'd like to see more hitting and even more offensive
domination. They still generated only 20 shots, and Kipper didn't
look especially sharp, either. But, nice to see them win going away,
rather than trying to hang onto a nailbiter.

Is that all? Were they also pounding them on the boards and knocking
them on their rears? I would hope they had those goons winded and too
gassed to be able to drop gloves after that humiliation in front of
the home crowd. I'm thinking that playing the men instead of the puck
might be an interesting way of holding a lead, rather than going from
a 3/2/1 to a prevent 1/2/2/1 formation.

I only got to see the second and third periods, and the picture
quality wasn't great.

Nonetheless, I got the feeling in the third period that the Sharks
could have generated more shots on goal -- except there was absolutely
no need to. Keep the puck, make them chase you around the ice, and
don't risk giving away possession by taking shots that aren't there.

Slightly disappointing to have the shutout broken up late, but that's
probably being hyper-critical. The SH goal was sweet...
