If anything, SJ crushed the hopes of thousands of fans packed dawntawn.

Don't get me wrong, Murray's been pretty good ... but this is the third straight series where the better goalie's been at the other end of the ice (Holtby, Vasilevskiy, Jones).
Normally when the opposition goalies start regularly stealing games, teams don't go this far. It's evidence of just how good Pittsburgh is right now that they can lose a game or two each series almost entirely because of goaltending and still prevail.
San Jose has been completely outclassed in this series. Tampa Bay and Washington were closer to Pittsburgh than the Sharks are. This ends Sunday in San Jose.
