On Thursday night the Sharks lost 7-1 to a Detroit Red Wings team that was fighting for their playoff lives. It wasn't pretty, but by the time the second period rolled around and Evgeni Nabokov was pulled in favor of Thomas Greiss, the next chapter of this novel was already at the forefront of everyone's minds.
And so these pages lead us to game five, where the Sharks find themselves with their best opportunity to win this series.
To say this is a must-win likely does a disservice to the lead San Jose built during their first three games of play-- I expected the battle to rage on to a minimum of seven meetings, with the potential for nine (eleven? thirteen?) games falling somewhere in between freezing Mike Ricci's body for a future playoff run and having an Orange Out at HP Pavilion. In other words, well within the realm of reason despite their seemingly ludicrous nature.
But when looking at the events that would transpire after tonight should the Sharks fail to win, it's hard to say the road would be much easier. Joe Louis Arena still carries an air of mystique despite the comeback in game three, and it's disregard for hospitality was on full display two days ago. A very tough place to play, a team who is one win away from crawling back from the dead, the potential to force an elimination game? Not what the doctor ordered. At least not my doctor.
Game seven would obviously be a madhouse. The Sharks would have failed to capitalize on three opportunities to close out the series, with the Red Wings ecstatic at the thought of completing a phenomenal comeback of historical proportions. It would be a dance with the devil. A series victory still attainable obviously, but the emotional margin for error? Razor-thin. The tension in the building would be enough to make a man go gray in three hours.
Which brings us here to game five. 17,562 lunatics screaming for blood, the roar of the home crowd calling for a series clinching victory against the demons of Detroit. The Sharks will come out on fire considering the embarrassment of game four, fueled by the opportunity to advance to their first Western Conference Finals since 2004. It is statement time for the franchise, and a brilliant chance to bury the questions about mental toughness once and for all.
The first ten minutes of tonight will be monumental-- if the team responds as I expect they will, Jimmy Howard will be under siege from nearly every direction. And if a puck or two slips by him early, the roof will cave in while the Sharks continue to swarm. But if the Red Wings survive those first ten minutes by at least breaking even, it's probably safe to say we will be in for another tightly contested game that defined the first three of the series.
More on some even strength numbers later today. Can't wait for this one to finally get underway.
Prediction: Sharks win 5-3. Goals by McGinn, Marleau, Heatley (x2), and Pavelski.
Go Sharks.

the question of the sharks not having the leadership to win 4 playoff games in a row like the red wings? they just won six in a row… so yes. they had to lose one eventually, probably, go sharks!

The Sharks lost bad enough last game for it to count as 2 losses. So they should be good now for another 6 game winning streak.

Yay Drew!
In their eyes he looks like a homer because he gets fired up when people talk negatively about the Sharks. He’s had a long history with the team as a coach and broadcaster. Definitely not a homer though. Drew is passionate about Saskatoon. I’ve always felt he was very objective and critical of the Sharks.But it is true, the skeptics/media will not be quelled until we continue to slay the demons of our past and prove differently.
Huskins on the other hand needs to go!

Sad when in a 3-1 series lead, that a home game for the Sharks is considered the make-or-break game. But it is unfortunately and both teams will come out playing their A game. That’s why the Sharks need to bring their A+ game.
Overall I say it’s going to be very close, but a hostile Sharks crows gives us the + we need.

Glad that my probation period is over, and its on Hockey day.
So, Im kinda glad that things happened the way tonight. Much like in the colorado game, they came back and won in six. We all knew that detroit would show their muscle in this series. They are detroit afterall. Now is the time for the Sharks to shine, and at home. Ill be sittin the same place Ive been sittin all year when the Sharks are playing…in front of my TV cheering them on.

So I bought ballet tickets for my gf's birthday last month
not knowing the playoff schedule for this round, and of course they’re for tonight at 7:30 Central time. With some luck, I’ll be out by game time, follow on my phone until I get home to watch the 2nd and 3rd of what will be by then a clear-cut Sharks victory.
What game 4? Go Sharks

Exact same thing happened to me for Game 1
I got Opera tickets way back when for my girl’s birthday.
Luckily though that game had an early start time so I got to see the first 2 goals (that and we ended up winning).
I voluntarily went to opening night at the Opera alone to see my friends perform in lieu of watching Game 6

Hi,
I have 1 ticket for sale to tonight’s game – section 101, row 22, seat 11.
My total cost was $177.20 ($159 seat face value + $17.20 in Ticketmaster charges). I’m just looking to cover cost, not make money.
If interested, please reply here.
Thanks.
p.s., will only sell to Sharks fans. Wings fans not welcome!
if you can't sell
and are willing to come down on the price, let’s talk.
NOT trying to stiff you. I just can’t afford even face. Hopefully someone can give you face for it, though.

as fun as it would be to see this
we need Jumbo tonight. We can’t afford to have him, or really anyone, in the box tonight.
On that note, I hope that Helminen is scratched in favor of Ortmeyer tonight. Dwight’s penalties really put us behind the 8 ball in game 4.
So if you re-read my comment...
Joe wouldn’t get called for a penalty. Franzen gets the penalty. All sunshine and rainbows!!!

I don't like all this talk of "must win"
Now, let me explain.
I agree with you that this is essentially a must win game, but don’t think we should be talking about it or looking at it in that way.
We need to look at it like Detroit is no doubt looking at it and how the no doubt looked at Game 4.
Don’t think of it as a “must-win” because that’s looking ahead into the future of the series. To me, that’s akin to saying, “We have 3 chances to win the series and this is our best one for the moment.”
We just need to look at this like ONE GAME. And we want to win this one game. We need to think about what we need to do to win the game and how we are going to do it.
Of course that is more of the mentality of the players, rather than us fans. But I think even we should be looking at it like that.
Just my thoughts.

The Sharks better be looking at it as just ONE GAME. But as fans, we have the luxury of being allowed to look at the whole picture. Obviously tonight isn’t a “must win” in the sense that it is for the Wings. But the Sharks still need to end this series tonight. Another loss, and all of a sudden the Wings are heading home with a 2 game winning streak, the Sharks have to travel back to the Eastern timezone to a place where they’ve now only won NINE TIMES in their history. Can they win a game 6 in Detroit? Yes! Is it likely? Probably not. And then you’d be looking at a true must win, against a team that had just clawed their way out of a 3-0 hole. Not good.
This is all a rather verbose way of saying “I disagree.” I think the Sharks do have to win this game tonight…both because its their best chance to wrap us this series, and for setting us up as well as we can for any potential playoff future this season.
This is where we hold them! This is where we fight! This is where they die! Remember this day, men, for it will be yours for all time.

I’m disgusted because I’m going to have to miss yet another game. Due to circumstances beyond my control, I will be at a Mother’s Day dinner during at least the first half of the game. Luckily, the restaurant’s in San Mateo and I’m pretty sure they have a flatscreen or two at the bar.
In any case, I think we can all agree that the first few shifts will do a lot to dictate the rest of the game. I know you already pointed this out in the preview, Plank, but you can never reinforce that enough! Look no further than the Franzen show in the first period of game 4. I’m not going to make some lengthy post, however, as we all know that the team has just been further galvanized after Thursday, and they’re going unleash the fury from the opening stanza.

I don’t see the Sharks anywhere on the Comcast guide for today other than on VS. Isn’t it supposed to be on CSNCA? All I see is MLS soccer… help?

We’re watching the Giants game [on CSN] and they keep advertising the Sharks game [on CSN] ha! they just did it again as I type! Pregame 6:30 Game 7:00
oh you know what they do sometimes is, it’s on Vs. first, while baseball’s on, and then CSN switches over to Sharks when baseball’s over. I don’t know, I guess we’ll have to try both Vs. and CSN if we can’t find it

Hoping for a good stream tonight..
Going to be watching UFC on the big screen, with the Sharks game on stream.
