San Jose Sharks....is there a tomorrow?

For those that know me...know that I am a huge San Jose Sharks fan....back when they started, I got curious to this new sport to the Bay Area....Ice Hockey....Ice Hockey in California?! Well....my work had some tickets to give away so I took them and went to my first hockey game.....it was all over after that....Renee and I got season tickets....row 14, center ice. When you have no kids, you can do crazy things like that. Once the kids started to come, we went to less and less games....when the kids got older, we started to go to more and more again. We lived in a neighborhood where many of the Sharks players lived and we often ran into them around the area. Our love for the team was now family wide as the kids often went with us to games. I write all of this because tonight, the Sharks play for their playoff lives. They won the season with the best record in the NHL but it means nothing as they face elimination tonight against a very tough Anaheim team. I always say that I would take a player with heart over a player with skill. The Sharks have a ton of players with skill but they now need to play with heart. For the thousands of Sharks fans who have been faithfull for so many years, we deserve it. I'm hoping that the Sharks can deliver as we all believe they can....
