3. That's just sad that a kid that went to high school in San Jose was rooting
for the Dodgers.

I know Sharks fans sure as hell weren't rooting for LA.

Except I guess for one. :eyes:

4. Sharks fans should have rooted for L.A. as they've actually won a Cup.
And they wouldn't be hanging their heads in disgust and shame after every first round.

5. L.A., never won a Cup.
The only final appearence they've ever made was in 1993 and Montreal beat the Gretzky Kings.

7. You mean the year Montreal stole the Islanders Fifth cup
with the help of Dale Hunter.

I remember that 93 series with LA and Toronto. I wanted Toronto as I loved Gilmour and Clark. Sad that Peter Zezel, who recently was on that team, just passed away.

8. Yes.The Forum ghosts were active that year.
That was a painful series. And the Hunter cheap shot was one of the worst. I always liked Dale right up until that point.

Yeah Gilmour had a fucking contusion on his lip the size of a tennis ball in that last game. And Clark was always a favorite. I despise the Leafs now though, ever since that punk Darcy Tucker cheaped Peca.

9. Wasn't '93 the last year
the Islanders won a playoff series? And if so, that's almost on a par with the Pirates consecutive losing season streak.

10. Probably
but neither are on par with the Frisco Small Mens Championship Drought.

Even the crappy Hartford Whaler/Carolina Hurricanes managed to win one before you ended that drought.
