This is the first actual challenge the Sharks have had in the first round for the last two years.  Taking out Nashville was too easy so I think they got too overconfident for the second round.  This year, they were almost wiped and they know how close they came to being on the outside looking in.  I think they’ll pull it together vs Dallas because they went through a bit of a struggle this year.  They’ll go all the way.
