Sharks need Joe back, Oilers were just taking it to them physically all night. And how many strides can you take before it constitutes charging on a hit? 27? If they can keep pounding SJ like that, especially if charging calls continue to not exist in this series, SJ will be in trouble
This really pains me to say it, but I think the parallels being drawn by the panel to the Flames/Canucks series 2 years ago are probably right, paricularly if Thornton can't come back - even if he does he's not going to be at full power. Sharks look like an older, past-the-best-by-date team, against a young team that now realizes it can intimidate them. I fear it's Oilers in 5 or 6.
