Since the Sharks began playing in the NHL, it's been my dream to see them play in the Cup finals. (Let's not talk about the '08-'09 season because this will turn into a rant.)

This year they are kicking @ss. Anyone else think they can make it to the Finals?

Go Sharks!

NO... looks like Chicago will be representing the West this year... obviously the Sharks will choke like always. Don't feel bad though, I'm a Wings fan and they are so banged up they may not make the playoffs, although if they get healthy they will be a team to watch.
My Clubs: Callaway FT-i Tour LCG 9.5° w/ Matrix Ozik Xcon 6 stiff; Sonartec GS Tour 14° w/ Graphite Design Red Ice 70 stiff; Adams Idea Pro 2h(18°) & 3h(20°) w/ Aldila VS Proto 80 stiff; Adams Idea Pro Forged 4-PW w/ TT Black Gold stiff; Cleveland CG12 DSG RTG 52°-10° & 58°-10°; Odyssey...

Sharks have a great team, I'm not a fan but they are solid... Their past few years playoff performances will be something they will have to mentally overcome... Thornton is an outstanding player... they have the physical talent to make it to the Stanley Cup Finals that's for sure...

I agree, Chicago looks tough.

My Dallas Stars, not so much.

They always do well in the regular season and then fold like a cheap tent in the playoffs. Can't figure out what it is, but I would never bet with them in the playoffs. You'd think that sooner or later they have to come through though.

As for their top line, Thorton, Heatley and Marleau, I look forward to seeing them on Team Canada at the Olympics. I think Thorton and Heatley are locks for the team with Marleau on the fence. It gets announced on Wednesday.

Wednesday???? Awesome!!! I'm going to the game that night against the Caps. Marleau is tied for 2nd for most goals in the league. Team Canada would be stupid to not keep this hot line together. Sharks vs. Hawks will be a good Western Finals.

The Sharks have a good team, but IMO this is Chicago's year to win the West.

Watched the Stars and Hawks tonight, very entertaining game... Stars got lucky on a couple of goals and won 5-4, they need some good bounces... Hawks are solid though, Toews, Kane, Sharp, Seabrook, et al... Strong team, expect them to make a serious run for the Cup

I've gotta agree with San Jose.

I think a lot of people are still scratching their heads on that trade... Thornton's a franchise player

I disagree. Big Joe is a perfect Assistant. But a franchise is more like Marleau, Crosby, or Ovechkin. Boston made the mistake of thinking he was more than he was. In San Jose, he gets to play the way he wants. No pressure to be more than that.

    • Probably since the golfer has to swing the club back and up. The hands have to move back and up. You can feel them go back and up just by turning the shoulders and bending the right arm, because it brings your hands towards your right shoulder.  The difference is if you maintain width or not. Less width means a shorter feeling swing path so the more you need to lift the arms. Being as someone who gets the right arm bend at 110+ degrees, it's 100% a timing issue. I am use to like a 1.5+ second backswing. It probably should be like 1 second at most. Half a second or more will feel like an eternity. I have had swings where I keep my right arm straighter and I am still trying to time the downswing based on the old tempo.  Ideally, for me, it is probably going to be a much quicker and shorter (in duration) backswing, while keeping the right elbow straighter. Which also means more hinging to get swing length without over swinging.

    • I'm currently recuperating from surgery, so no golf, but have been thinking about this quite a bit. This and the don't overbend the right arm thing. It's hard for me to even pose the position, so I'm not 100% sure, but I feel like it's impossible to have the right humerus along the shirt seam and not overbend your right arm, unless your hands are down near your hips. If the left arm is up at or above the shoulder plane and your right arm is bent less than 90 degrees, then your right humerus has to raise or your hands will get pulled apart. Your left hand can't reach your right hand unless either the right upper arm is up or the right arm is overbent. Is that right? If it is, then focusing on not overbending the right arm would force you to raise the humerus. And actually thinking further on it, if you do overbend your right arm, then you're basically forcing your upper arm down or forcing your left arm to bend. Since (for me at least) bending the left arm too much is not something I think I need to worry about, it means that the bend in the trail arm is really the driving force behind what happens to the right humerus. 
    • I managed to knock off a 3, a 13, and a 15 a couple of weeks ago. The 3 was a 185 yard par 3 with a 6 iron to 12 feet. 13 was a 350 yard par 4, which was a 2 iron and a 9 iron to about a foot. 15 was a 560 yard par 5 with a driver in a bunker, 4 iron into the semi, gap wedge to 8 feet and a putt.
