The Wings got "destroyed" by the Sharks because as Matthew Barnaby put it, some of the "worst officiating ever" ended any chance the Wings had in that series. I don't see how a team that wins a series with four one goal wins and one 7-1 loss "destroyed" the opposition.
Like I said, I think the NHL is going all NBA-like this postseason and basically calling the shots. If the Blackhawks don't win with their NHL golden boys, I'd be shocked. I don't think the Sharks are going to get anywhere near the number of power plays they were awarded in the Wings series - THE reason the Sharks won that series was because of a couple convenient 5-on-3's in both games one and two - and I'd think Kane and Toews and Duncan Keith and the woe-be-gone Bryan Campbell-less Hawks are being primed for a Stanley Cup (their first in the average American's lifetime) by Gary Bettman and friends.
