PITTSBURGH -- Whittled down to the most basic terms possible, the Sharks want to make everyone schlep back across the country.

The Penguins, the NHL brass, the NBC Sports contingent, the media covering the Stanley Cup Final here in the Consol Center -- the Sharks want to force everyone to fly back to San Jose for Game 6 on Sunday."Our group's whole motivation is to make all you guys get back on a plane and go back to San Jose again,'' Sharks coach Pete DeBoer said Thursday following the morning skate."That's everybody's goal. I know it's mine."That means staving off elimination, something the Sharks have already done during their playoff run.
