Sharks are a great team that I'm happy to cheer for when their wins aren't harming our Stanley Cup chances.
It just seems like they've earned it more. Not just from all the years they didn't come close enough but even this year. Having watched games from both sides, it seems like the Sharks are playing a really solid all-around game. They are going out and creating chances, beating teams by outplaying them every night.
The Penguins just seem... they seem like they're only here because of the teams they faced. It feels like the Sharks went out and beat every team on the way, and there wasn't much more any of those teams could've done to stop it. The Penguins seem like they caught every team dropping the ball in a major way or facing serious adversity.
Everyone gets to the final in different ways but I'm taking the world-beater.
