After years of frustration with Thornton and Marleau underperforming in the playoffs, while being hailed as franchise cornerstones, I gave up on the Sharks. Plus the guy who got us all going to games moved back to Nebraska.
I'm down to checking where they are in the standings a few times a year.
So I check last night, and what do I see. What the hell's going on in SJ? They lose two games back-to-back 10-1 and 10-2. In that first one, the 10 matched the entire Sharks goals scored during the season up to that point.
Are they doing a season long tank to draft hockey's version of Michael Jordan or something?
