Randy Hahn said it.

And maybe, just maybe, after a five-game losing streak around the Olympics and a recent six-game skid that really shook the faith…maybe the Sharks are a team of destiny?

With 28 seconds remaining in Wednesday’s game at SAP Center, the Sharks edged the Anaheim Ducks 4-3, for their third-straight GWG with less than 90 seconds left.

That’s an NHL record:

Speaking of destiny, the Sharks once again are in control of theirs: They’re one point back of the Los Angeles Kings for the last wild-card spot in the West, and tied with the Nashville Predators with 77 points, but they also have a game in hand on both teams.

The Western Conference wild-card chase isn’t a pillow fight, it’s a roller derby, with six squads, Los Angeles, San Jose, Nashville, Winnipeg Jets, Seattle Kraken, and St. Louis Blues careening into each other for a single playoff berth.
