Editor’s Note: Inspired by Andrew Sharp’s excellent #HotSportsTakes series at Grantland (R.I.P.), we will occasionally attempt to write the worst Sharks column on the internet. This is satire (or an attempt, at least), and should not be taken seriously.
Today’s topic: the Penguins’ will to win, and the Sharks’ lack thereof.
There’s an old adage in hockey which posits that sometimes, it’s better to be lucky than good. Like most of you, I fell asleep in philosophy class, so I don’t know who’s responsible for this widely accepted wisdom.
