For the third straight year the San Jose Sharks have failed to make it out of the second round of the playoffs. The Dallas Stars finally put the Sharks to bed off of a PP goal by Brenden Morrow 9:03 into the fourth overtime period, the third longest in Stars history. The goal by Morrow gave the Stars a 2-1 win for a 4-2 series win.
The Stars drew first blood in the second period to break a 0-0 tie but the Sharks drew even in the third to send it to eventually quadruple overtime. The game started at 8pm Sun. 5/4 and ended in the early morning hours of Mon. 5/5.
The Stars are now slotted to play the Detroit Red Wings, the team with this year’s best regular season record, for the Western Conference Finals starting Thursday night in Detroit. Go Stars!

Melissa,
I just hope it’s an exciting series. You are one of the few people I know that have a legit reason to cheer for a team not in Texas.
