I think we can go with the assumption that Sharks fans, especially those at SBN’s Fear The Fin, are excited about their upcoming series with the Detroit Red Wings:
Sharks Blog: ‘This Is What Postseason Hockey Is All About’
This is what postseason hockey is all about.
It's about going up against a team that has punched you in the mouth and saying "I can take one more, because this time I'm not going down." It's about facing your demons head on. It's about entering into a battlefield that will define the organization for years to come. The biggest test this team has faced. Never have the stakes been so high, the Last Crusade, the final proving grounds. It is the last shot San Jose's core will have before the organization decides to go in another direction. The Patrick Marleau's, the Evgeni Nabokov's, the Joe Thornton's. This is their time.
No matter where this ends up, no matter what side of the ledger the Gods decide to cast their final tallies, soak it in. Let every single second synchronize with your soul.
Because honest to god, it is series like these that make me proud to be a hockey fan.
