Sharks/Stars Game 2 Postgame

Wow. The Sharks suck. Good for me, bad for them.

After being ridiculed by my Shark-fan roommates in the first series for losing to Dallas, this win really solidifies a big "FUCK YOU" which I can then use to shove down their throats.

The Stars won this one because they do what the Ducks can't - keep playing confidently after the other team scores. The Ducks would fall apart whenever they got scored on, but Dallas has been basically shrugging off any goals and kept their heads up.

The Sharks somehow think their end-of-the-year momentum is somehow going to carry them through the playoffs, without actually having to work hard, and Dallas is tossing them around like small children because of this fact.

Now the Sharks have two games on the road, where they're really good. Ironically, this is what is killing them. They blow chunks at home. A .500 record at home is going to allow a good team (ie the Dallas Stars) to come in and kick their asses. Having the Home Ice Advantage that comes with being the #2 seed isn't going to help when you can't win shit at home.

The Stars go up 2 - 0 in the series, and you can already put this series in the books, even if the Sharks take a win in Dallas. They can say goodnight.
