You know, it's kind of hard to write about this. On one hand, we completely outplayed them. From top to bottom, they just got outplayed. On the other hand, we caught them on the wrong night as Dwayne Roloson decided he just didn't want to lose tonight. We score a point in the shootout loss, but the streak is over. It was a hell of a ride.

It really sucks when you outshoot someone 49-23, and you still go home with a loss. They played a great game, and I've got nothing to say that can take it away from them. Would they have lost if Shelley stupidly checked Cogliano after the whistle? I doubt it, but he's not the reason we lost. It's a true testament to the skill of these pro goalies, if you ask me.

My 3 Stars:

3rd Star: Joe Pavelski. The guy changed so many plays, and he had our only goal of the game. Patty deserves a mention for his shootout goal, because he really kept it interesting. But Joe played a great game, as did our rookies. My hat's off to them.

2nd Star: Fernando Pisani. He won the game. Pretty much the only reason I'm giving him any love here.

1st Star: Dwayne Roloson. The guy was a bloody monster tonight. Unstoppable. 1 for 49? Jeez. Can't blame the sharks there.

All in all it was a well played game by the sharks. It's a shame they got no fruit for their labors.
