YES!! I GET TO GO TO GAME 1!!

[sharkfan20]

Should be a good series. I'm expecting a physical series right off the bat. Can't wait till thursday.

ANd series should start on thursday, a concert at hp will be on friday and saturday as the eagles are coming to town. Second game should be on sunday, ij ust hope the sunday game is not in the morning.

But should be a good fought series. If the Sharks win, our pysch will be wayy upp since most of our playoff ghosts\demons are there and if they lose, they haveno shame to lose to the wings.

Here to a good fought series. I've been waiting for this series since 2007. Should be a epic series.

I can see you've been around here for over a year now, but I'm sure we'll see more of you in the next two weeks. So welcome to the boards!

This is the series lots of us were looking forward to having last season...but my boys pulled the usual and took off early for the putting greens. I'm pumped at the chance to exercise the demons of seasons past...and there's no better way than by playing the wings. To be the best, you have to beat the best. No team has been on top for longer than you guys. It should be a freakin' awesome series. If Thornton, Patty, and Heater get it going I love what this team is capable of. If they remain missing in the postseason, I don't like our chances.

Very very ready for this. Good luck.

I'm really looking forward to a series with the Sharks.
This is a western version of a Caps, Pens series.. in terms of star power.

GL HF San Jose.

Stop making us like you guys!! Haha.

Naw but honestly it's a nice change of pace from Ducks fans, Pens fans, Hawks fans, Pens fans, Ducks fans, Pens fans oh and uh, Pens fans. But I do expect a handful of ****** Sharks fans to come on here. Lucky for them, a few fans like you guys have set the bar so we won't get annoyed as much on here.

This is an incredible opportunity for the Sharks, imo. They have a chance overcome whatever mental or emotional obstacle that's in the way of their success. And in a big way. A win for them could do wonder for that franchise.

[Yzermania]

I think this will be easier than the phoenix series. We had their number in the season, even when we were missing players.
They play the same system as us for the most part(for obvious reasons)...we're just better at it.
Go Wings.

Every fan base has douchebags. Some even figure out how to use the internet.

I see it the same way...the Sharks can't ask for a better opportunity. Granted, whatever team wins this series still would have 2 very tough teams in their way, but make no mistake, this is HUGE for the Sharks players, management, fans, and everyone else you could associate with it.

I've been on here since late in '08...always enjoyed it here.

Pens fans are terrible. Terrible, terrible, terrible. Ducks fans aren't so great either, although Duck Guy has been a good poster here for a long time. Hawks fans are still fairly infantile and on the large have hockey inferiority complexes when it comes to the Red Wings as their team was terrible for quite awhile and was regularly slapped around by our team.

I liked the Sharks fans who showed up here three years ago.

[titanium2]

Pens fans are terrible. Terrible, terrible, terrible.

Haha. What's the new phrase they come on here to say now? Oh yeah, "Check yourselves". Haha.

Looks like we finally get the match up we all wanted. Here is to an entertaining series. I'd wish you luck but you don't need it with all that talent.


Go Sharks!!!!

I don't know, man. Sharks are really talented too. It's going to be interesting.

This thread is an unprecedented example of co-existence between two fanbases on the internet. Love it.

There will be some s*** talking sooner or later. Pretty soon we'll see the ugly side of them. Then we'll see how LGW responds.

Looking forward to an awesome series with the Wings. I'm hoping that this may finally be our 1997 -- after years of regular season success and a Pres Trophy, I'm hoping that this may be the year we can finally break through. Just as the Wings had to go through the Avs to get to their first Cup in 40 some-odd years, I'm hoping that if we can get past the mighty Wings we can possibly get to our first Cup in 20-ish years of existence.

As someone said upthread, to be the best you have to beat the best. So I'm with titanium2 in thinking that this is an opportunity for the Sharks to really grow from past experience and overcome whatever the hell has kept us from reaching that next level since the lockout. Looking forward to the challenge.

Here's to a great series without injury. May the best team prevail.

Oh, and FYI -- Duck "fans" are the worst people in the universe; completely ignorant of the game's history and rules, drunk on recent Stanley Cup sucess (barf!) and mostly ignore their team (and also by virtue of being from SoCal from which all evil originates). But I digress.

[titanium2]

When the talent actually shows up.

That is most definitely an issue that will plague both teams. All throughout this year I've thought the Wings were just beat the hell up from many deep playoff runs. Some games they really look like that and some games they manage to pull through. One of the first thoughts I had after watching Game 7 was, "Well where the hell did that come from? They take some sort of hockey viagra or something?"

So consistency is definitely an issue for the Wings right now. They performed awesome in Game 7 and then watch they'll sleepwalk through the first period on Thursday. Who knows? I mean, I really have no idea how I feel about this series.

[Tommy_Like_Wingy]

This will be such a good quick series.

Fixed.
