Look Out For The Sharks This Year


The San Jose Sharks are my favorite team in the NHL. Primarily, because of Joe Thornton being awesome and also because they have a kid on the team named Joe Pavelski (you might have heard of him, or not because no one pays attention) who's from right down the road from here Steven's Point.


The Sharks are off to a great start this year, led in points by Captain Patrick Marleau and the deadly RW Devin Setoguchi. The goaltending has been great in Evgeni Nabokov, but more importantly from backup Brian Boucher, who has two shutouts in his two appearances this season. Joe Thornton has, as always, a good amount of assists already. They are set to take on the Minnesota Wild tonight at the "Tank" (HP Pavilion) this should be a good matchup, as the Wild are 7-2-1 and the Sharks are 10-2.
It's a long NHL season and the Sharks are known as choke artists in the playoffs. But, not this year my friends.
