After years of waiting, drinking, crying, off season disappointment, choker jokes, inane arguments about Joe Thornton not being HOF caliber, and just general annoyance, the Sharks are competing in the Cup Final.
The Stanley Cup Final. The words are surreal.
There’s still a huge chance for disappointment, a disappointment like no other, but I feel hopeful with just a few hours to go before game 1. It’s a game series. You don’t expect to win four straight. There will be some ups and downs, but they can do this. The Pens are fast and formidable, but the Sharks can do this.
This is going to be one hell of a ride. Sit back, relax as best you can, and try to enjoy it.
And as always, hold on to your butts!
GO SHARKS!
