Underdog Ducks Continue Sharks Domination

Never in a million years did I think I would be cheering on the Anaheim Ducks but I want them to create a huge upset in this first series of the 2009 Stanley Cup Playoffs. The Ducks barely made it into the playoffs and they are dominating the San Jose Sharks (who had the best record in the league this season) with a 3-1 lead in the series.
All Anaheim needs is one more win to eliminate the Sharks. I can’t believe I’m even 
writing those words. It’s not every day that the #8 seeded team takes out the #1 seeded team in the first round. CRAZY!!!!
Again, Jonas Hiller was extraordinary between the pipes and you can be sure that everyone is taking notice of this barely-known goaltender. I can’t believe how effective he’s been for his team under the pressure. He shut the Sharks out completely tonight and I’m sure they are just as baffled and shocked as everyone else.
Meanwhile, rookie Bobby Ryan scored two goals in the 4-0 victory so it’s clear that the Ducks are pulling together and aren’t relying on “star players” to get the win.
I can’t believe I’m saying this but… Go Ducks!!!!
