do you think the San Jose sharks are the best team in hockey?

Not the best.  Maybe the hottest, but not the best.

Hell yeah they do.  Sharks will go to at least conference semi's while kings will at least put up a fight against the spurs.

I myself am not a Wild fan, but I just watch the Sharks beat them on national tv. They didn't play good, but they also didn't play bad... so I get what you're saying. They almost let in a goal when the Sharks took a penalty and Manny left the net, except it hit the post. I guess the most exciting part about the Wild is Manny Fernandez, I love watching him grab saves out of nowhere (it can get frustrating when playing against him). But yeah, they never seem to keep any sort of momentum and when they got some today (a late power play down by a goal) the power play dismantled. Still though, the Wild are one of my favorite teams to follow and I hope that they can get more exciting to watch for you. Best regards.

I'll have to argue and say that the Sharks will win the Pacific division.  Great teams are built up the middle and the Sharks truly follow this path, with the best 1 2 combination of centres in the NHL in Marleau and Thornton, and in goal with Toskala and Nabokov. The centres are able to split much of the ice time among each other and can team up for key power plays and late game situations(think Messier and Gretzky).  Add in the scoring punch of young guns Jonathan Cheechoo, Steve Bernier, and Milan Michalek and you're looking at a deadly combination.  The back end is sharp too, with rookie Matt Carle quarterbacking the powerplay and gritty Scott Hannan and Kyle Mclaren locking up the back end.  Again considering how much rest both star netminders can get(think Gerber and Ward, Vernon and Osgood, or Barrasso and Wregget) and you're not only looking at a team that is good enough to win the Pacific division crown, but will surely compete for Lord Stanley's Cup.

San Antonio will. They're the defending champs and have even done better than last year by just setting a franchise record 63 wins and they are showing no signs of slowing down. Duncan and Ginobili are all healthy now. Their playoff experience and deep bench will lead them to another championship this year\n\nI don't really care for hockey.

They are well coached. They have the #2 power play and #3 penalty kill in the NHL--#1 in the Eastern Conference in both categories. The players stick up for one another, and pick each other up when someone makes a mistake. They don't have anyone who just glides along half the time (remember Miro Satan?). They have good team speed, have 4 good scoring lines, have the NHL's #1 shot-blocker (Jay McKee), and have finally developed good depth as an organization. Young players like Jason Ponimville and Paul Gaustad stepped up when Daniel Briere, Jochen Hecht, Chris Drury and McKee were out. I've been a Sabre fan since the French Connection and survived the dark days. I'm really enjoying this season.\n\nAs for the Maple Laffs--hockey's version of the Chicago Cubs, too bad for them that they're not closer to Buffalo.

What kind of smack are you trying to start??\nI am a huge Ducks fan but would never disrespect the Sharks or the Oilers. Both are very tough teams who have bested us this regular season.\n\nThe Thorton/ Cheechoo line is one line I am truly afraid of.  It is really fortunate that Lupul, Penner, Marchant line is stepping up, and IMHO can take on the Sharks line.\n\nAs (Scott) Niedermayer said after we swept the Av's, its not over yet. We still have to win 4 more games before we can think of the Stanley Cup.  And, as our Captain and 3 time winner of the Cup, I value his quote and will remain a humble Ducks fan.\n\nAs for the Av's... it was a great sweep, so better luck next year.
