Playoffs Day 39

The Sharks were able to beat the Blues 6-3 in St. Louis and now have a chance to make it to the finals on home ice. Marc-Edouard-Vlasic got the first one when he got a pass from Joe Pavelski and slapped it in from the point.  Jaden Schwartz tied it when a shot hit Backes and the puck came loose so he could snap it home. Troy Borouwer got a nice looking goal when Paul Stastny shot it and it deflected high so Brouwer swung at it in mid-air and it went in. Joel Ward tied it up for the Sharks when Vlasic's shot hit the post and Ward was right there for the rebound goal. Robby Fabbri got the last goal for the Blues when he, Parayko, and Pietrangelo had some passes on the point and Fabbri just one timed it in. Joe Pavelski tied it at the end of the period when he one timed a Joe Thornton pass in between the circles. He scored again, but this time 16 seconds into the third when he tipped in Brent Burns shot from the point. Two empty net goals from Chris Tierneuy and Joel Ward finished the game. The Sharks are closer than ever before at the Cup since they're only one game away. The Blues on the other hand started Jake Allen again who got the Blues on win, but Brian Elliot could be the best option. You never knows though. Game 6 is at San Jose and game 7 is at St. Louis if needed. Can the Sharks finish the Blues? Will the Blues change goalies? Is this the year for the Sharks? stay tuned....
