    Another good game. As much as it pains me to see it I want a Penguins sweep -- so that it pains those ahole Sharks even more.

    Seems like the sharks are good at making things harder on themselves than they need to be. Kinda like the Rangers lol

    Teams that win Game 2 of the Finals have gone on to win the Stanley Cup 73.7% of the time (regardless of who won game 1).

    I never look too much into those kind of stats. Every series is different. The Sharks have been dry as a bone offensively but if they can get hot I can totally see them winning 4 of the next 5

    Over the years hockey appears to be THE easiest sport to comeback from a deficit of 2-0 or for that matter 3-0. I know it happened to the BRUINS of whom I root for since the early 70's.

    True. The Hawks lost game 2 in both the 2013 & 2015 Finals. The Bruins lost game 2 in 2011. Pens lost game 2 in '09. So, if we take the last 7 Finals, the team that won game 2 has only won the Cup 42.9% of the time.

    GO SHARKS!

    It's all puck luck man. Yeah there are teams that are better than others but really when you get to the final four, it's puck luck. How many posts got hit last night? The difference between winning and losing is literally measured in centimetres

    There is luck involved (poor officiating, injuries, etc) but I believe you make much of your own luck. If your team is put together right sometimes things just click.
    Obviously a huge game 3 coming up. Sharks are not the type of team to come back from 0-3, they are the team that blows it up 3-0.
    Hope the Pens put the fucking dagger in tonight. Expect the Sharks to come out heavy, period 1 should be some fun to watch.

    Sharks have never won a playoff series after trailing 0-2 (0-9 in series). There's a first time for everything.

    GO SHARKS!

    Maybe sometimes, but with hockey I've seen too many teams that are put together right, like you said, only to run into a crazy hot goalie, or lose a game on an odd man rush after hitting a post... all sorts of freak stuff nobody sees coming. All about being at the right place at the right time.
    I mean when was the last time Brent Burns - one of the league's premier defensemen - just dropped his stick? Happened to be in the corner at the end of the game, hagelin slides the puck to Bonino and the pens take game 1. If Brenter had his stick that goal never happens. Totally a fluke

    OMG.......I live down here in SFlorida and I attend Panthers games when they play the BRUINS. I like the Panthers jersey with the dark blue with (the coconut trees on the shoulder is a nice touch) the dark red is just beautiful. However, that thing of a jersey above is simply u g l e e e e y! If I was Panthers fan and you gave me that jersey I wouldn't wear it. I'll just stick with the SECOND best looking jersey in ALL of hockey DA BRUINS.

    Peace

    I actually quite like those sweaters. Logo is just okay but the actual sweaters are nice

    Agreed. I like that they're unique, with that stripe across the arms and chest. The colors are okay, but yeah, not impressed by the logo. Can't tell what's on the shoulders, but I do like the tree/stick design.

    sweaters kinda remind me of the Senators ones a little.

    Upon second look and after watching a presentation of the jerseys the logo could be bigger. Then get rid of the team name above it. Behind the logo is that an impression of the NHL shield? Still not liking that jersey compared to the 2014 one.

    Agreed, the logo needs to be bigger and the name should be removed. Having the logo the same size as the band across the chest, it gets lost to me.
