The San Jose Sharks have asserted themselves as the
top team in the Western conference after years of choking early on in the
playoffs. To top that they have finally reached their first Stanley cup final
in team history. All while standing on the backs of aging veterans like Joe
Thornton and Patrick Marleau, and on unbelievable goaltending by first time
starter Martin Jones. But the Sharks have unfortunately run into the hot
goaltending of Pittsburgh's Matt Murray. Who has been outstanding for the
Penguins since taking over the starting job from Marc Andre Fleury at the end
of the season. Murray has been Ken Dryden esc leading the Penguins past Stanley
Cup favorite's Washington and the Tampa Bay lightning. Who were on fire heading
into the Eastern Conference Finals.
