Colorado Stars-San Jose Sharks: A Time to Kill

So here I am, in Colorado on business and unable to watch the Stars games with my fellow fans. And as much as I wish I could be back with you guys, it is time. Game Six - time to finish off the Sharks. They've shown grit and determination and come back to win two games. Great for them. But enough is enough. Time for the Stars to show they have the kind of killer instinct that we saw from Detroit recently.

We saw it in Game Six of the last series. And there is no shame in being up 3-2 going into Game Six in your own barn against the team that won your division and all but caught the team with the best record in the game this year. So I'm not necessarily panicking that we've lost control of the series. The Sharks have a lot of talent and a lot of reason to not lose - jobs, for one. Lose to Your Dallas Stars, and more than one person on their roster sheet is going to be looking for work or working elsewhere in the fall. So the surge we've seen from San Jose should be no surprise. I expected us to be challenged, and it happened.

But we know the Stars have the ability to win on Sunday. And frankly, it is time for them to finish the deal. Sunday night, AAC, we end them. From the rafters down to the ice, every Stars fan, player and staff member should be about one and one thing only on Sunday - put a fork in them.

Obviously, I'm not saying this from a "I know this will happen" p.o.v., but rather a "this is what needs to happen." Certainly, with Stu still listed as day to day and with the way the Sharks have found a way to win games, nothing about tomorrow is for sure.

But the Sharks have had their opportunity to show they aren't chumps. It is time to close the deal.

Come on boys, put them out of our misery.
