Nah, don't see it happening. Niemi has been shaky as of late and the Sharks just don't have "it" to get them through the playoff wars. I don't see them getting by the Kings in round 1 actually lol.
.......you don't get credit if you don't put it down, so this is my bold playoff prediction. They have burned me oh so many times in the past, but I've got a feeling this is the year they finally break through in the post-season.

Nope. Niemi is not in good form. They might not even make it out of the first round. I give you some Points for originality though.

If they are going to win a cup with this group of players they better hurry up. Such a consistent team over the last handfull of seasons. I am looking forward to watching the Sharks / Kings series. I feel San Jose will go deep but come up short..........again.
I love the Sharks, and I'm down with the whole #TeamSanJose thing ... but I'm picking the Kings to win this series.
