I'm by no means a fan of the Sharks, considering they kick the shit out of the Canucks on a regular basis, but I cannot belive that Thornton is a playoff no-show again. At least Marleau is answering questions about his ability to perform in the post season.
I've been hoping the Sharks would choke because I hoped it would give the Canucks a shot at trading for Marleau, but with his play it looks like that was just a pipe-dream.
As long as the Sharks can match the physical play of the Flames they should be able to bounce back and take the series. They looked almost scared of the Flames last game, especially after Marleau got smoked twice. I still think the Sharks will win the series, they've been my pick to win the cup since Oct.
