Ugh

Ugh. Just...ugh.

The outcome of the big Sharks-Wings tilt in Detroit tonight? Wings 6, Sharks 0.

Hopefully we can leave all the excessive and factually misleading* gushing about the Sharks' "historic" start behind us, now.

The Sharks played reasonably well for the first ten minutes tonight. Then Evgeni Nabokov gave up a couple of featherbed-soft goals and they folded like Superman on laundry day.

Best case? This is a wake-up call that serves to remind the Sharks that however many points they have, they are not the league's best team.


* The Sharks only set a record for total points through thirty games because there are ways of getting points now that didn't exist several years ago. If all of their overtime/shootout wins were counted as ties (as they would've been in the past) their record would be more modest.
