Why did Jaskin get a penalty when it clearly was Pollack that was fighting? Jaskin may have thrown a punch, once he got to his feet, but Pollack clearly punched him five times with gloves on before Jaskin even got to his feet. He's clearly not trying to fight but Pollack forced him into it so why does he get penalized for defending himself, if he indeed did? I guess at the end he was up and in a fighting position, so to speak, but it still seems odd to me.

Yeah I didn't get that either. This series is awesome though.
Cmon Blues!

At least I'm not the only one.
I have been in the unfortunate position of not seeing any good games for a couple of weeks. There have been a few games, and I've missed those, but most have been blowouts which IMHO is boring.

Great playoff season this year! Although I was hoping for seven games out west.
Sharks, past the first round and not to mention now in the Cup Final? I guess hell finally has frozen over . . . . . . .

Who would have thunk that Jonathan Quick's one-time back-up would be leading the Sharks into the Finals. I'm happy for guys like Thorton and Marleau who have been questioned for years, finally showing people that they are the real deal.

Yeah, I really think the Sharks are going to win it after what they've done with their 3 previous opponents. They are scary good right now and I just don't see either Tampa or Pittsburgh beating them..but ya never know!

A healthier Bolts team would have prevailed in that series.
I like the Sharks in 6.

I know I've said I can't root for California teams, but there is no way I'm jumping on the PITT bandwagon. No way.
Let's go Sharks!

As mentioned above, my heart's with the Shark veterans, so put me down for them as well. In 6.

Funny story that may or may not have been posted. I'm not around enough and too lazy to look. I got a chuckle out of it, you may not.

That wasn't luck...Murray was asleep on those last two SJ goals. If he continues to let in shots that you or I should stop the Sharks will come back and win the series.
They barely get any shots! And if they do they're usually blocked before it has a chance to get to Murray. Bastards.
Good to see SJ get back in it though. I think PITT has been the better team for the most part.

As much as I hate to see the Pens success they are out-hustling the Sharks. Also, the Pens third and fourth lines are playing much better than Sharks bottom two. Hopefully, this win will wake the Sharks up. I heard on the news that Metallica is playing the National Anthem tonight and then donating the autographed instruments to charity

^^^Irrespective of shot counts, etc., the Pens are totally outplaying the Sharks in every way. 5 games is a compliment to the Sharks. Their disappointing play (or at least disappointing results) are reminiscent of the Annaheim/Ottawa final in 2007. That also went 5 games, but shouldn't have.

It's been a yawner of a final series, for myself at least. I mean, were the Blues so tough to beat that winning that series just sapped everything the Sharks have, really? Zero intensity on the part of both teams, really--the Pens are just making it look easy out there.
