One of the reasons I love this Sharks-Ducks series is because it’s two veteran teams going head-to-head in a best-of-seven series. Both sides have been there, they’ve done that and they understand that this is a playoff series, not a one and done. Which means that now the fun really starts.
When vets go up against each other in a series, the serious stuff doesn’t start until Game 2. The Sharks tossed out the opening volley with a Game 1 win, which is awesome, but count on the Ducks to respond.
You can bet there’s going to be a lot of hitting.
