The San Jose Sharks have caught a lot of flack over the years. The book on them is that they have great regular seasons, and then always choke in the playoffs. Last year, they were the number 2 seed in the conference, and they made it all the way to the Western Conference finals before being eliminated.

The bottom line for them is that they felt they couldn't win it all in the postseason with their current. So they made a lot of trades and moves in the offseason, and some of the most familiar faces of the Sharks in the past are gone.

Devin Setoguchi and Dany Heatley are gone, for example, and in their place are new imports like Martin Havlat and then Brent Burns on defense. There are still plenty of old faces and lots of talent though, with guys like captain Joe Thornton, assistants Dan Boyle and Patrick Marleau, Joe Pavelski, Ryane Clowe and on down the line from there.

The Sharks will be turning to the tandem of Antti Niemi and Antero Nittymaki in goal, and hope to get consistent play from them, especially in the playoffs when it counts. Will the Sharks make a push to win the whole thing in 2011-2012? You'll have to buy San Jose Sharks tickets and head down to the Shark Tank to see the team play and judge for yourself.
