Through 25 games this NHL season the San Jose Sharks have won a staggering 21 games. With a 13-0-1 mark at home they have notched a point in their last 23 regular season games at The Tank.
After having one of the best teams in the league since the lockout but falling short - three straight 2nd round exits - in the playoffs, this team is the best of them all.
With more scoring from the likes of Devin Setoguchi, Ryane Clowe and Joe Pavelski to go with the already dangerous Joe Thornton, Patrick Marleau and Jonathan Cheechoo the Sharks lead the league in scoring.
But that's not all.
GM Doug Wilson also brought in two of the best defenseman in the league in Dan Boyle and Rob Blake. Behind them is one of the top-3 goalies in the world in Evgeni Nabokov.
Now that is one hell of a team.
Then again its December. Hockey matters most in May and June for this team.
I dont care how hot it is when summer hits the playoff beards better still be in full affect.
