Playoff Type Games

Sharks lost a playoff type game to Calgary on Thursday and are ready for another big huge game tonight against the defending champs.

A few notes
* Nabokov needs to stand up on his head not only tonight but come Spring time

* Vlasic needs to take the occasional risk in the offensive zone instead of dumping the puck in all the time.

*Pavs and Clowey need to pick up their game on the 2nd line

* Error has to pick up the slack in his own zone. Way to many boneheaded plays

The Detroit Red Wings are still the defending champs. They, IMO have more skill than the Sharks. The only way the Sharks can beat them in a 7 game series is with superior goaltending and more will/determination. Otherwise the Sharks will get picked apart from a team that is better at passing, puck possession and breakouts in their own zone.
